Protein helps reduce appetite and hunger levels.
Out of all the macros (protein, fats, and carbs), protein is by far the most satiating. This is partly due to its slow digestion and because protein reduces your level of the hunger hormone ghrelin.
Reduces Cravings and Desire for Late-Night Snacking.
One of the main reasons for overeating at night or on weekends is the lack of satiation. Carbs and fats can be easily broken down, which leaves us wanting more, even if we have had an adequate amount of calories. But if we incorporate more satiating foods like protein into every meal, we are less likely to feel the need to snack mindlessly.
Increases muscle mass and strength.
Protein is the building block of your muscles. Therefore, eating adequate amounts of protein helps you maintain your muscle mass and promotes muscle growth when you pair it with a killer strength program—looking to get leaner? Perform better? Improve health? You've got to have muscle for that!
Helps to maintain muscle mass during a fat-loss phase.
When in a fat loss phase, your body will try to adapt to the decrease in calories. One way your body does this is by getting rid of extra mass (like fat!). But what most people don't realize is that the body will also start to break down muscle because it is a very heavy and "expensive" tissue. To help prevent as much loss of muscle mass as possible, make sure you eat adequate amounts of protein daily.
Boosts Metabolism and Increases Fat-Burning.
The more times you eat an adequate amount of protein, the more muscle you may have. The more muscle you have, the higher the metabolism you have. The higher the metabolism you have, the more calories you burn. The more calories you burn, the less chance of gaining fat! See where I am going here?
Helps you to stay fit, healthy, and independent as you age.
It is no joke that one of the consequences of aging is loss of muscle mass, weakening bones, and a decrease in independence. Eating more protein is one of the best ways to reduce this. In fact, the demand for dietary protein grows as you age! Combine this with staying physically active and lifting weights, and you got yourself a killer combo!
