Nutrition Quickie:  Do You Eat Enough Protein?

I am Registered Dietitian Jayson Hunter and here is your Nutrition Quickie for today. Apply it and strengthen your nutritional foundation with multiple Quickies like this.

Eating enough protein is key for many reasons, but a big reason why most people will be interested is because of its ability to help with weight loss. 

Protein can help boost the metabolism while keeping our appetite in check.  It provides fullness so that we end up eating fewer calories throughout the day. 

It can reduce cravings and has also been shown to lower blood sugars.  

Work on eating 1 gram of high quality protein per pound of your goal bodyweight.  

If you like this Quickie please share it with your friends so that they can also start to apply Nutrition Quickies like this to their lifestyle. Also, don't forget to subscribe here to our channel so you get notified when we release new Nutrition Quickies.
