POWER OF PROTEIN
If you’re trying to lose weight, making a conscious effort to eat more protein might be a smart move. New research shows it’s a strategy that not only leads to better, healthier food choices when you’re dieting, it also helps to avoid the loss of lean body mass that weight loss can cause. The best sources of protein are whole foods, like chicken, red meat and fish, which provide 20-35g protein per serve; milk and yoghurt, which provide 10-15g of protein per serve; and eggs, legumes, tofu and nuts, which provide 5-12g of protein per serve. Updated advice suggests aiming to eat 1.2-1.6g of protein per kilo of your body weight, each day, to support healthy weight loss.
