π₯© Food facts: Protein π₯©
Continuing our look at food and especially our major macro nutrients, we start to look at protein and the importance of sufficient consumption.
Protein is another essential nutrient meaning you need to consume certain types as your body cannot make it all from what you use to fuel your body.
Almost half of the amino acids needed to make protein you cannot produce so you need to consume those in food choices.
Especially important if you are aging (everyone!! ππ«΅πΌ) as you need protein to maintain muscle, bones and many other bodily functions.
Save and share with any aging friends or family who may need to hear/ know or be reminded the importance of the fuel they consume π«Άπ»βΊοΈπͺπ»
