Add more protein ......... for less fat
Thank goodness for protein
We need protein to stay strong and
healthy. If we don't eat enough our bodies will steal it from our muscles
and organs. In fact, protein is essential for the development of our
muscles, which lead to an increase in the burning of calories. our muscles
could be described as fat furnaces as they keep our metabolism running high.
Protein and Personalisation
-
Eating the right amount of protein
for your body curbs hunger and increases lean body mass.
-
The more lean body mass you have,
the higher your metabolism and the more calories you'll burn
-
Protein + good carbohydrates =
success
-
Your body needs protein to stay
healthy and strong

Remember, not all protein is
created equal. 15 % to 35 % of your diet should be lean protein that doesn't
contain significant levels of fat

Soy Protein is the highest quality
plant protein available. It's an excellent source of amino acids, the
building blocks of protein needed by your body. Long-acting and slowly
metabolised, it also contains antioxidants to help maintain healthy cells.

of live foods (fresh fruit and vegetables)

body's protein needs and consume
