There are a large number of weight loss products and services on the market. Herbal supplements, drugs, acupuncture, and liposuction are some of them. Do you know that the most effective method to lose weight and burn fat is by engaging in physical activities and controlling your food intake?
Protein is an important nutrient when it comes to losing weight. High protein diets are recommended to help lose weight and burn excess fat. For those with normal levels of activities, you need 1-1.5 grams of protein for each kilogram of your body weight. If you weigh 180 pounds (81 kilograms) for example, you need 81-123 grams of protein each day. Since we don't get that amount of protein from our daily meals, we can take protein supplement to fill the gap.
Protein Powder Whey
Protein supplement, whey protein powder especially, is very popular to dieters because it contains very little lactose despite its high protein amount. It is also recommended for those who are sensitive to lactose and those who are vegetarian (lacto vegetarian). Preparing your protein shake is very easy. Simply put some water or skim milk, shake it for a while and it is ready.
Whey protein can help you lose more weight because of the facts as follows.
1. It causes thermic effects
Consuming protein can help raise your metabolism levels.
2. It Suppresses your appetite
Having protein shake between meals can prevent you from being hungry. Protein helps prevent glucose to be absorbed into the bloodstream rapidly which prevents the sudden rise of insulin level. Whey protein also contains glycomacropeptide, or GMP, that trigger the release of appetite suppressant hormones. These hormones stimulate your body to feel full longer.
3. It helps build muscle mass
Protein shake is a great post-workout drink because it supplies your body with amino acids, the building block of muscle tissues. Higher quality whey protein powder like whey isolate protein powder helps maintain your muscle mass so that you will look leaner if you burn more amount of fat.
4. Its high digestibility
Whey protein contains all the essential amino acids you need. Whey also contain the derivation of amino acids like leusin, isoleusin, valine, and glutamine that boosts your immunity. The other great benefit that makes whey protein powder a great source of protein is its high digestibility. After workout, you need to supply your body with protein immediately because your body is depleted of amino acids.
Casein is the main protein in an egg, but the absorption of casein is slower than that of whey. Casein often referred as the slow acting protein. Another great source of protein is soy beans. It is the greatest vegetable source of protein. It offers a lot of benefits such as lowering bad cholesterol levels and reducing the risk of heart disease.
