FORMULA 3 - PERSONALIZED PROTEIN POWDER

The key to long-term weight maintenance.

Protein, more specifically the building blocks of protein called “amino acids,” is an essential component of every cell in the body. The cells of the immune system, skin, hair and muscle all depend on protein for proper functioning and growth. Adequate daily protein intakes range from 50 to 60 grams for women to at least 70 to 80 grams for men.

An easy way to determine the optimum range of protein you need daily is to divide your current weight in half and then subtract five to 10. The numbers you come up with represent the range of total grams of protein you need daily for your body size for maintenance. For example: If you weigh 150 pounds, you should consume between 65 to 70 grams of protein a day.

All too often many dieters cut back on protein in an effort to trim calories and lose weight. This can lead to deficiencies that not only rob health, but can also trigger nutritional imbalances in your body that can slow weight loss and eventually lead to weight gain, a condition referred to as “yo-yoing.”

To get out of the vicious “yo-yo” cycle, you need to feed your body the proper balance of nutrients, one of the most important being protein.

Did You Know?

According to the Food and Drug Administration, soy offers a “complete” protein profile. Soybeans contain all the amino acids essential to human nutrition, which must be supplied in the diet because they cannot be synthesized by the human body. Soy protein products can replace animal-based foods–which also have complete proteins but tend to contain more fat, especially saturated fat–without requiring major adjustments elsewhere in the diet. Performance Protein Powder also contains heart-healthy soy protein.
