Protein helps your body build and maintain muscles and other tissues. This is extremely important because if you don’t have enough protein in your diet, it can impact your muscle mass.

Having lean muscle plays a huge role in ensuring that you maintain your ideal weight and it helps prevent injury. Proteins also function in the creation of hormones. Again a big part of maintaining good weight, skin, mood and overall health.

Alternatively if you’re taking too much, then just like carbohydrates, excess protein gets stored as fat.
