Protein and Weight Loss

High protein intake combined with exercise can lead to significant weight loss—up to 46% more body weight lost compared to lower protein diets. The thermic effect of protein means that a substantial portion of the calories consumed is used for muscle synthesis, making protein a powerful ally in weight management. Optimal protein dosing, particularly around 30 grams, enhances muscle stimulation and overall metabolic efficiency.
