Protein is made up of amino acids. Amino acids are the building blocks of your muscles and body. Your stomach begins to digest the proteins with hydrochloric acid that breaks them down into simpler forms (di and tri-peptides) making them easier to be absorbed. When proteins get absorbed into the bloodstream, they are sent to various parts of your body to perform various functions, including repairing and building muscle tissues, supporting your immune system, and transporting oxygen in your red blood cells.*

Having a sufficient amount of protein will put you in a positive nitrogen balance, or an anabolic state. Being in an anabolic state will allow you to build muscle, burn body fat and stay energized.* On the contrast, if you have a negative nitrogen balance because of inadequate and inconsistent protein intake you risk being in a catabolic state (muscle breakdown). Consuming protein in each meal throughout the day will ensure you have an adequate supply of amino acids without consuming a surplus of calories.

Protein needs differ from person to person. Individuals that exercise need more daily protein intake than those that do not exercise. The intensity of the exercise also dictates how much protein one needs to build lean muscle. Individuals with more lean muscle are known to have a faster metabolism, burn body fat more efficiently, have healthier bones and balance blood sugar and cravings extremely well.
