Beef Checkoff Introduces the 30 Day Protein Challenge
Thu, 02 Apr 2015 11:05:40 CDT
Are you up for a challenge? Americans currently consume two-thirds of their total daily protein intake at dinner - that doesn't leave much room for protein at other meals or snacks. Introducing: the beef checkoff's 30 Day Protein Challenge!
For some time now, research has shown that consuming protein in balanced amounts at each meal is beneficial to improving overall health. Some of the more remarkable benefits of distributing protein throughout the day include feeling satisfied after a meal or snack that features protein, which helps reduce mindless eating. Additionally, meals with high-quality protein help to build muscle and reduce body fat.
The 30 Day Protein Challenge is a step-by-step way to get an optimal amount of protein throughout the day. "It's simple: work your way up to eat 30 grams of protein every meal, and feel the difference," says Jo Stanko, co-chair of the checkoff's Nutrition and Health Subcommittee, and producer from Steamboat Springs, Colo. "Whether consumers are seeking to maintain and/or build muscle, looking for craving control or simply striving for better overall health and wellness, the Protein Challenge can help them take control of their appetite and kick start the benefits from balancing protein consumption."
