Protein – Mother Nature's Diet Pill
Of the three basic building blocks of nutrition– protein, carbohydrates, and fat– nothing provides longer-lasting and more effective appetite control than protein. In fact, I like to call protein nature’s diet pill!
The unique sating power of protein is thought to be due to several mechanisms working in concert including:
- Sustaining blood glucose levels
- More effectively driving down levels of the hunger hormone ghrelin
- Delaying stomach emptying (which keeps food in the stomach for a longer period of time)
Whether your goals are improved weight control or losing weight– getting optimal protein in your diet is an invaluable strategy for success.
