Just a reminder that a food being higher in protein doesn’t make it ‘healthier’ or always the better choice🙂↔️
Every day there seems to be a new ‘high protein’ product popping up in supermarkets… and yes absolutely higher protein alternatives have their place and may be very helpful in some situations:
✅helping increase the protein content of meals/snacks
✅potentially make a meal/food more filling and satiating
✅help you reach your overall protein needs for performance, muscle building + recovery, especially if you follow a plant based diet!
However, not all are equal and actually contain that much more protein (often at a much higher cost🙈).
And you CAN also just focus on getting your protein needs met through other protein rich foods, and stick to the regular version…especially for athletes who also need to make sure you’re getting enough carbs to support your training volume too👏🏼⛽️
Do you use/buy many ‘high protein’ alternative products?
