Protein is one of the main macronutrients that your body uses. Protein is mainly used to build tissues like skeletal muscles, used to help make collagen found in connective tissue like tendons, ligaments, skin, and fascia. Not to mention it is involved in making enzymes, hormones, chemical receptors, and so much more. Protein can also help keep us feeling full and satisfied after a meal. And feeling more full thanks to protein can help us eat less throughout the day. My rule of thumb for people is to consume around 0.7 - 1 gram per lbs. of body weight. This may not be exact, and it may change based on your goals, but this is a good starting point. If you track your protein intake for a day or two, and realize you are no where close to those targets, then this video is exactly for you.
