We’ve all been there.
We look at ourselves and criticize.
I never worried about how the foods I ate would affect my health.
Eight years ago, I decided to make a life change.
I started listening to what my body was telling me.
Yes, your body has its own way of speaking to you.
Sound weird?
Every time you get that nauseous feeling or question “should I eat this?” – it’s your body’s way of communicating with you.
This is when you should listen!
For many of you out there trying to get healthier, protein is going to be your best friend.
If you want to build muscle, you must intake 0.36 grams of protein per pound of body weight.
The recommended daily amounts for protein are:
• 56 grams per day for the average sedentary man.
• 46 grams per day for the average sedentary woman.
• 125 pound woman would need 1.6 ounces of protein daily.
• 200 pound man would need 2.5 ounces of protein daily.
Your body can only handle 30 to 40 grams of protein in a single meal. Anything over this amount will convert into glucose and be burned off.
You should also maintain a regular workout regime. The combination will help build muscle.
Get up and get moving!
