Healthy protein foods?

Protein can help you shed those unwanted pounds and keep your belly

full. But it's important to eat the right amount and the right kind of

protein to get the health benefits.

Fish & Seafood

Seafood is one of the best sources of protein because it's usually

low in fat. Fish such as salmon is a little higher in fat but it is

the heart-healthy kind: omega-3 fatty acids.

White-Meat Poultry

Stick to the white meat of poultry for excellent, lean protein. Dark

meat is higher in fat. The skin is loaded with saturated fat, so

remove skin before cooking.

Milk, Cheese Yogurt

Not only are dairy foods excellent sources of protein but they also

contain valuable calcium. Choose skim or low fat dairy to keep bones

and teeth strong, prevent osteoporosis and enhance weight loss.

Eggs

Eggs are one of the least expensive forms of protein. The American

Heart Association says normal healthy adults can safely enjoy an egg a

day.

Beans

One-half cup of beans contains as much protein as 3 ounces of broiled

steak. Plus, these nutritious nuggets are loaded with fiber to keep

you feeling full for hours.

Pork Tenderloin

This great and versatile white meat is 31% leaner than 20 years ago.

Soy

Twenty five grams of soy protein daily can help lower cholesterol and

reduce the risk of heart disease. Combine soy protein foods like tofu

with a healthy low fat diet.

Lean Beef

Lean beef has only one more gram of saturated fat than a skinless

chicken breast. Lean beef is also an excellent source of zinc, iron

and vitamin B12.

Protein on the Go

Grab a meal replacement drink, cereal bar or energy bar. Check the

label to be sure the product contains at least 6 grams of protein, and

is low in sugar and fat.

Lean protein such as chicken and fish along with a lot of green veggies. Avoid obvious junk food and sodas etc. If you want more info, come check out my youtube channel below. I have high protein meals my channel. Link below.
