The Hierarchy of Macros
Episode description
This week on Master Your Mindset and Metabolism I discuss how paying attention to your protein intake can be a big game changer!
"Protein is going to curb your cravings. It's also going to keep you more full. It's going to keep you more satisfied. So if I were to place in front of you five doughnuts and five chicken breasts, you would easily be able to eat those five doughnuts. But you would not be able to easily eat those five chicken breasts. They're very filling. They're very, very satiating. However, protein is something that is also a thermogenic. And a thermogenic just means that it takes your body more to process it and digest it. So it takes more energy. OK. So if you were to make one change in your nutrition today, I would recommend to add a little bit more protein."
Topics covered:
- Why protein is the king in macros.
- Different sources of lean protein.
- Two surprise types of foods that you may THINK are helping but your protein intake, but could be hurting your overall results.
