Can eating your food in a specific order support fat loss?

Wait - what?

What does this even mean?

First, if you’re not familiar with macronutrients, you need to read this first.

Second, eating this first (or before) you enjoy a night of drinking and processed food is super beneficial to overall fat loss.

What is “this”, you ask?

Rhymes with schmo-teen.

You guessed it - PROTEIN!

Eating protein first at meals has numerous benefits:

• Weight management: Protein is highly satiating, meaning it makes you feel fuller for longer, can reduce your appetite and help prevent over eating.  Protein has a higher thermic effect compared to fats and carbohydrates, meaning your body burns more calories digesting and processing protein. 

• Blood sugar stabilization: Protein helps to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates into the bloodstream, which can help to prevent spikes and drops in blood sugar levels, leading to more stable energy levels and reduced cravings. 

• Muscle growth and repair: Protein is essential for muscle growth and repair and provides your body with the nutrients it needs to build and maintain muscle mass. 

• Improved cognitive function: Protein is essential for brain health and function. Eating protein first at meals may help to improve cognitive function and reduce fatigue.

Eating protein first at meals is a simple and effective way to improve your overall health and well-being. Give it a try and see how you feel!  Natural sources of protein (meat, fish, eggs and dairy) are the way to go, and supplements (especially ours;)) are a great way to ensure you're hitting your daily protein goals!
