DID YOU KNOW….

-The Mediterranean Diet is a heart-healthy way of eating that emphasizes plant-based foods, healthy fats, and quality proteins.

-Fiber acts like a toothbrush for your colon by keeping your gut healthy and reducing the risk of chronic health conditions.

-As we age, our bodies need more protein to help preserve muscle mass and strength to maintain a certain quality of life. Having sufficient protein also helps to increase the body’s immune functions and reduce recovery time from illness.

-Contrary to popular diet fads, a healthy lifestyle involves eating a balanced diet of the 3 macronutrients:

1. quality proteins - help rebuild and repair your body’s tissues

2. healthy carbohydrates (carbs) - give your body energy

3. healthy fats - important for satiety or feeling full, hormone balance, and helping absorb certain vitamins

-Whey protein isolate is derived from milk, but since it is 90% pure protein, whey protein isolate may be better for people who have trouble digesting lactose (lactose intolerance). But it’s not for people with milk allergies.

-If your body isn’t used to taking in that much fiber, start slowly with smaller portions and increase gradually over a few weeks to help with bloating or fullness.

- The average adult should eat around 25-30g of fiber a day (the average American eats less than half of that).

-Almost anyone can build muscle with adequate protein, healthy carbohydrates and fats, and strength training. (You can do it!)

-Whey protein isolate is a complete protein meaning it contains all nine essential amino acids that the human body can't produce on its own.
