Introduction
There is nothing better than a homemade protein bar recipe. They are easy to make and let you enjoy the benefits of eating healthy without going through all the hassle. Protein bar recipes are great to have in your kitchen so that you can keep them on hand for the days when you need a quick treat.
While helpful, protein bars should only be considered a supplementary component of your diet. Protein bars as the main source can deny you the benefits of the much-needed minerals, vitamins, fiber, healthy fats, and phytochemicals abundant in other foods. As long you have a healthy and balanced diet, consuming protein bars shouldnt need to be a daily occurrence. Your main focus should be nutrition and proper exercise. Protein bars are the best choice if you are looking for a product to help you lose weight, gain muscle, or add more protein to your diet without the added calories. But only use them as a supplement and not as a meal.
Some protein powders can contain as much protein as your regular chicken breast. Most manufacturers of protein powders use soy or whey protein as main ingredients. Those who want to avoid soy or whey protein for health reasons can opt for plant-based protein powders. Manufacturers of plant-based protein powders use hemp and rice as the main ingredient. n Some are even gluten-free, making them suitable for people who have a gluten allergy.
There are many homemade protein bars recipes to choose from, but if you want to make healthy and delicious with no preservatives found in protein bars at home, then all you need is creativity and the right ingredients. This book features the best protein bar recipes that combine healthy and tasty ingredients.
All the recipes are designed for convenience; you only need a few minutes to make them.
Chapter 1 The Benefits of a High Protein Diet
The benefits of a high protein diet are apparent, leading us to ask this question: how much should we consume? This number depends completely on your weight and activity level. Experts agree that you should eat between and 1 gram of protein for each pound of your body weight.
This means that if youre a 140-pound woman who exercises lightly, you should eat approximately seventy grams of protein daily. If youre a 140-pound woman who exercises frequently, you will want to increase that protein intake, riding closer to 140. If you achieve the proper amount of protein in your diet, you can expect real, physical, and mental changes in your body. Look to the following information for a better understanding.
1. Repair Muscles and Power Your Day
As you live and work, your bodys muscles are undergoing a ceaseless cycle of muscle loss and muscle gain. Destruction, construction, and repair. Depending on your activity level and whether or not your body has enough amino acids (found readily in animal-based and plant-based proteins), you can end up losing more than you gainand fast. If you exert and strain your muscles without the requisite amount of protein in your system being converted into those precious amino acids, muscle degeneration is a certaintywhich ultimately forces your metabolism to falter. Providing your body with protein, and the right kinds, encourages this protein synthesis and keeps you going, rather than withering away.
Learn the right kinds of proteins you need, and the very specific benefits protein has on your muscles, on your mind as you live and work each day. Keep in mind that moving toward a high-protein diet is absolutely essential for re-growth.
2. Build Up Muscle Mass
High protein intake allows for muscle mass gain, which can both slenderize your body and rev your metabolism. Furthermore, when you pair a high-protein diet with exercise and weightlifting, the complete amino acid formula found in complete protein sources allows you to repair from muscle damage. This means you can get back out there and continue to build.
3. Maintain Bone Mass
Some of the nine amino acids derived from proteins are used to build and strengthen your bones. This is important to reduce your risk of osteoporosis and keep you strong and lean. Many protein rich foods and recipes include high amount of calcium, as well, which also assists with bone strength and growth.
4. Improve Mental Function
A high protein diet gives you improved brain performance. Because it activates many of your neuroreceptors in your mind, it improves alertness and memorydrawing connections from cell to cell that allow your brain to access information.
5. Decrease the Frequency of Hunger Pangs
Eating a high protein diet is the best way to feel fuller for longer, allowing you to feel satisfied without taking in too many carbohydrates and calorieswhich all lead to weight gain. Furthermore, a high protein diet turns you away from daily snacks, allowing your body to heal between mealssomething that can only occur if you give your kidney and liver a break from caloric intake.
