Are you getting enough protein? So many people who come to us for health coaching aren’t consuming anywhere near enough protein in their daily diet. Through the media and clever marketing, protein gets linked to building muscle, which for a lot of people, particularly women, worries them. They don’t want to get too big or muscular. So protein is avoided and calories made up elsewhere, often with carbs (which are not the devils work, stick with me…) Let me explain… We need carbs and fats in our diet, this is 100% fact and neither should be considered ‘bad’. BUT… we do need to be mindful of how much we consume. Effectively, carbs are sugars once they are broken down into fuel, and we only need so much fuel to actually use as energy. The overspill we consume will need to be stored, EVEN IF YOU ARE WITHIN YOUR CALORIES (now read this again before moving on). So, this is the first part. Calories consumed need to be a healthy combination of ALL macronutrients. Having too much fuel can still lead to seeing little to no effect on body fat loss. NOW, let’s talk protein and its many key benefits - which aren’t just for building muscle. Protein is made up of amino acids (the building blocks of muscle). It repairs torn and broken-down muscle fibre. So essentially, you have to be creating damage to muscle, like resistance training in the gym, for muscle to repair and grow. Consuming protein alone will not make muscle grow. Next, protein helps with food satiety - it keeps you fuller for longer. AND it helps with hormone regulation and aids recovery of the body. It’s important to remember that our bodies don’t store protein, so we need to eat it every day. So how much protein should we be consuming daily to unlock these key benefits? Around 1g of protein per 1lb of bodyweight. So, 180lb in weight = 180g of protein. A scale of 0.6- 1.5g of protein per 1lb of body weight is used when working out your intake needs. My mini challenge for you: At your next meal, see how much protein you are actually consuming. Protein can come into your diet in many ways, not just from meat and protein shakes. Think eggs, tofu, beans and seafood. Assess your daily protein intake for a week. Remember you need to spread the consumption out over the day. Are you close to 1g per 1lb of body weight per day?
