Why Protein Matters
The Power of Protein
Protein is essential for building and repairing tissues, making enzymes and hormones, and supporting overall health. It's especially important for:
- • Muscle growth and maintenance
- • Keeping you full and satisfied
- • Supporting immune function
- • Maintaining healthy skin, hair, and nails
Optimal Protein Timing
Research suggests spreading protein intake throughout the day is ideal. Aim for 20-30g per meal for optimal benefits.
Born Simple bowls fit perfectly into this recommendation!
