Why You Need Protein to Build the Body You Want


Listen Later

Proteins play a critical role in developing the body you want as they are the building blocks of all tissues in the body, including muscle tissue. When you consume protein, your body breaks it down into amino acids, which are then used to build and repair tissues in the body.

But there are still women that are afraid of eating protein for variety of reasons, such as:

  1. They are scared to eat more calories and are trying to eat as little calories as possible daily

  2. They believe that eating more protein is going to make them bulky

In this episode of Embrace Your Real podcast, we'll be looking at the importance of protein in your diet to achieve the body that you want.

 

What I discuss:

  1. Protein Helps Build and Repair Muscle Tissue

  2. Protein Helps Boost Your Metabolism

  3. Protein Helps Control Your Appetite

  4. Protein Helps Preserve Lean Muscle Mass
