The medical textbook, Biochemistry of Exercise and Training, made it clear that protein fuels metabolism, therefore protein can’t make you fat. “There is no mechanism for storing excess dietary protein in the body, and any amino acids that are ingested in excess of the immediate requirements are oxidized [burned for energy, not stored as fat] and the nitrogen excreted.”
Majority of protein that you have consumed, which is 60-70% is magically vaporized away, because it fuels its own digestion. The remaining 30-40% of consumed protein is used for the immense number of protein-based bodily requirements like producing enzymes, hormones, ad antibodies, and building muscle, bone and blood. Naturally, protein contains half of every cell’s membrane, the other half consisting of lipids. That’s the reason why you have to consume lots of protein daily in order to satisfy your body needs.
Protein as well as Parent Essential Oils or PEOs consumption helps increase your metabolic rate that’s why they are good for weight loss. “The specific dynamic action of protein”, is the effect after you have eaten protein. Your metabolic rate will automatically increase by 30% and will actually last from three to twelve hours. Protein and PEOs are essential nutrients that your body needs and when you consume enough amounts of these food nutrients, they will automatically fulfill your appetite and eventually stop food cravings. You can obtain these nutrients from organic food sources like organic meat, organic dairy products like natural or unprocessed cheese and milk, organic poultry products and organic fruits and vegetables that should be eaten fresh and raw.
