PROTEIN

Protein is essential for building and repairing tissues, producing enzymes and hormones, and supporting overall growth and maintenance of body tissues. It also plays a crucial role in muscle recovery and growth, especially after exercise.

• Daily Intake: Aim for 0.75 to 1 gram of protein per pound of body weight each day.

• Timing: Distribute your protein intake evenly throughout the day, ideally consuming protein at every meal.

• Sources: Include a variety of protein-rich foods in your diet to meet your daily requirements.

Five of the healthiest natural foods containing protein:

1. Chicken Breast: About 25-30 grams of protein in a palm-sized portion.

2. Salmon: About 22-25 grams of protein in a palm-sized portion.

3. Greek Yogurt: About 10 grams of protein in a single serving (1 cup).

4. Lentils: About 18 grams of protein in one cooked cup.

5. Almonds: About 6 grams of protein in a small handful (about 1 ounce).
