To understand how much protein you really need to stay healthy or prevent chronic disease, you might want to figure out how your body digests and absorbs protein.
In recent years, protein has become a buzzword in the health and fitness industry, with many people believing that the more protein they consume, the better.
Sure, protein fills you up. It also helps you build and maintain muscle, which helps prevent weakness, falls, and other health concerns related to aging. Studies also show that high-protein diets can help you lose weight — think about the Atkins Diet. But such short-term result is nothing compared to the high saturated fat and high calories in high-protein foods that increase the risk of heart disease and obesity.
Protein is an important nutrient for our bodies. But focusing too much on this macro can skew our understanding of what a balanced diet should look like.
Here’s Cyrus for a discussion that might help you stop obsessing over protein.
