BANOBAGI Beauty Tip:
Things you should be aware of while eating protein!
Many people try to have ‘high-protein diet’ when they are
interested in
healthy life or losing weight.
Especially, people
who play sports must have protein even by having protein supplies.
Then how much do
you know about protein?
Many people are
thinking that protein is a type of nutrients they need
while putting on
muscles.
However, that is
only a small part of protein’s effect.
1. Healthy diet,
Protein! What does it do in our body?
Protein controls
our body’s metabolism.
It maintains our
blood sugar in stable level, while stabilizing our nerve system.
There are many
other roles that protein plays on our body.
Protein is an
intercellular bridge of various types of amino acid.
Lack of amino acid
can lead to problems such as pain on muscle, bone and joints,
change in blood
sugar level, slower recovery ability, weakened immunity, and so on.
So you are clear
that you require adequate protein intake now, right?
2. Is it better to
have more protein since protein is good for our body?
Excessive
consumption of protein can lead to osteoporosis due to loss of calcium
because our body
excretes calcium as urine as metabolic process of amino acid
that is forming
protein.
Thus you have to
make sure that you are having enough calcium consumption
while you are
having high-protein diet.
3. What’s the
greatest way to have protein healthy and tasty?
There are many
foods that are enriched in proteins such as
beans, egg, meat,
fish, and so on.
It would be really
delicious if you cook them with various spices,
however this is
not healthy way to have protein.
You can have
healthier diet if you cook high-protein foods
with less sodium
and less sugar.
For example, beans
are relatively easy to cook by stirring or boiling,
and you can also
enjoy various forms of beans because there are various recipes
available with
tofu or beans as an ingredient.
4. Can I have
protein while I am on a diet?
You have to make
sure that you have well planned healthy dietary plan,
not just eating
less and protein is something that you must have during diet.
You need to have
adequate animal fat with vegetable fat,
and it is
recommended to have chicken, duck, egg or fish
rather than red
colored meats when you are on diet.
Also it is better
to have small amount of protein often rather than
having much of
them at once.
Salmon has lower
calories than chicken breast, and is also helpful on
skin improvement
as it is enriched with vitamin and proteins.
