Why a High-Protein Diet?
At its core, protein is one of the three macronutrients (alongside carbohydrates and fats) that your body needs to function properly.
It plays a vital role in the growth, repair, and maintenance of tissues throughout the body. And it supports weight loss and weight management.
By controlling appetite, improving satiation (aka, feelings of fullness), and helping to regulate blood sugar, eating the right amount of protein—or a little more than your minimum requirements—can help support your physical and overall health goals.
What the Experts Say About the High-Protein Diet Plan
“This plan is great for anyone who is curious about the benefits of a high-protein diet, is actively trying to find ways to incorporate more protein into meals, is on a muscle-building journey, or is simply looking for better-for-you high-protein recipes,” says Melissa Jaeger, RD, LD and Head of Nutrition at MyFitnessPal.
Even better? Melissa played a critical role in the development of the plan, providing tips that are actually doable when meal prepping for a high-protein diet plan.
How the Plan Works
Each day of the Plan consists of three modules that each take about three to four minutes to complete:
- The Check-In: Each day you’ll identify one thing you’ve accomplished the previous day that you’re proud of, and one thing you can do better today.
- The Facts: Read daily bite-sized lessons to learn about the power of protein
- The Tips & Recipes: Receive daily tips, shopping lists, and recipes to incorporate more protein into your diet.
How you complete the Plan is up to you: you can choose to complete all modules in one day, follow the 7-day Plan over the course or a week, or work your way through the content slowly—taking a month or, heck, even a year.
This is your journey to making better food choices. We’re just here to support the pace that’s right for you.
