Why we need protein
PROTEIN is Essential for muscle repair, growth, and maintenance. It also plays a role in producing enzymes and hormones.
Importance for Women: Adequate protein intake is crucial for preserving muscle mass, especially as women age. It helps in managing weight by promoting satiety and reducing overall calorie intake.
Protein for Muscle Mass Maintenance
Muscle mass naturally declines with age, and menopause can accelerate this process. Including adequate protein in the diet helps maintain muscle mass and strength.
Lean meats, poultry, fish, eggs, dairy products, beans, and lentils are excellent protein sources.
