The body is a fascinating system. Because protein is vital, your brain has unique mechanisms that ensure that you automatically get enough of it.
Why protein meals?
- You get an appetite when protein is missing.
- You feel full when you already have enough protein.
Leveraging this with sheer willpower is tricky. Most people can cover their minimum protein requirements well if they listen to their hunger. And if you want to individually change your physique, you should take a closer look: Even a high protein intake of over 3 grams of protein per kilo of body weight is safe for healthy people. And by the way – it has a positive influence on the physique. If you want to go deeper, you will learn about five situations in the linked article in which you can particularly benefit from a protein-rich diet.
