Calories matter for weight loss⌠but protein determines what you lose. đŞđĽ
If youâre trying to lose weight, donât just focus on eating lessâfocus on eating enough protein too.
Protein is broken down into amino acids, the building blocks your body uses to repair muscles, make hormones, produce enzymes, support your immune system, and maintain healthy skin.
Thatâs why two people eating the same number of calories can end up with different body composition depending on their protein intake and activity.
⨠Remember:
âď¸ Protein helps preserve muscle during weight loss.
âď¸ It keeps you feeling full for longer.
âď¸ It requires more energy to digest than carbohydrates and fats (higher thermic effect of food).
This is the science behind why protein is so important!
