Lean Protein options
Try adding some of these options to your diet
Protein is essential for muscle growth, recovery, and fat loss. The rule of thumb for protein is at least 1g per body weight.
It may be hard to reach that number for those not used to consuming enough protein. You might feel full after a few bites, which is entirely normal. Protein will generally take you longer to eat because it’s so filling.
There are two types of protein. A lean protein has little to no fat, and a fatty protein has a higher fat content.
Both are important to consume in our diet, but a fatty protein might fill you up quicker due to its fat content.
There are multiple options for lean proteins that will help you reach your daily protein goal without making you feel bloated or filling you up immediately after the first bite.
