Addressing Some Of The Risks Associated With A High Protein Diet by D.J. Netz ©

If you need to lose weight, consume 3 healthy, high protein meals in addition to 2 healthy snacks. Your body can absorb 30 grams of protein every 3 to 4 hours, so adjust your meal plans and protein consumption accordingly.

Here are some additional ideas for an effective high protein diet:

Take a multi-vitamin while you are dieting. You don’t want your body to experience malnutrition while you are on a controlled or restricted diet.

Drink 6 to 8 eight-ounce glasses of water each day. This is especially important for higher protein consumption, as it will improve the performance your liver and kidneys.

Consider an Omega 3 fatty acid supplement. Obesity is an inflammatory disease, and the omega 3 fatty acids help control cellular inflammation.

Also, consider taking an amino acid supplement, which helps break down proteins, making them easier for your body to absorb, while reducing the burden on your liver and kidneys.

Once you’ve achieved your weight loss goal, you can reduce your daily protein consumption to 60 to 80 grams, which is the recommended amount to maintain lean body mass. The guidance of a health or wellness professional should be used when determining the protein targets for your body. Many people need guidance that goes beyond FDA nutrition charts. An individual’s eating habits, trigger foods, medical history, and body shape are important factors to consider when revising a diet plan.
