With Sleep, Stress, Genetics, Workout Program and most especially what you Eat play a role in how your body works and how you feel. If you still can’t seem to drop that stubborn body fat, then consider how the supplement whey protein may help.
WHAT IS WHEY PROTEIN?
Whey protein is a mixture of globular proteins isolated from whey, the liquid material created as a by-product of cheese production. Whey protein is commonly marketed as a dietary supplement, and various health claims have been attributed to it in the alternative medicine community. In supplement form, whey protein comes in three main forms:
- Whey Protein Concentrate: Contains some fat and lactose and between 29% – 89% protein depending on the specific product. Whey protein concentrates often have more bioactive compounds.
- Whey Protein Isolates: Contains minimal fat, cholesterol and lactose and 90% or more protein.
- Whey Protein Hydrolysates: Are often used in clinical nutrition applications because they are predigested and partially broken and therefore easier to absorb.
Whey protein has the highest protein digestibility corrected amino acid score (PDCAA) – a measure of both how well a protein is digested and how well it supplies the amino acids needed by an individual. It contains more branched chain amino acids (BCAA) than any other source of protein.
ADDITIONAL TIPS TO HELP SHED BODY FAT
- Use a food journal and write down everything you eat. Studies show that people who log their food intake every day are more likely to lose weight than those who do not.
- Seek the advice of a sports/fitness nutrition expert who has the education (a degree in nutrition or nutrition biochemistry) and experience in nutrition to help you.
- Check the forums and the transformations for information on how others have dropped fat pounds.
- If you are having problems losing weight yet you feel you are doing everything right, talk to your physician. Low levels of certain hormones, hypothyroidism and other conditions can make weight loss more difficult
