And so, isn't that ‘saving calories’?” The answer is absolutely no. Because in that one meal, you can totally eat past your hunger and accumulate way more calories than you otherwise would if you had eaten throughout the day.” – Adrienne Youdim“Good fats are good, but they are fats. Be wary of fake healthy food and also be mindful of the healthy food. Portion size matters.” – Adrienne Youdim“Remember, protein is your most satiating or most filling macronutrient. So, if you're going to compare protein, carbohydrates, and fats, protein is going to be the nutrient that is most filling and it is the nutrient that's going to give you the most staying power.” – Adrienne YoudimYou should feel good about what you eat! ✓ Dehl Nutrition offers clean nutrition with functional ingredients that support better health. ✓ Formulated with the perfect combination of protein and carbohydrates for optimal nutrition. ✓ With an added boost of energy!
