Nutrition Tip - Protein for Fat Burning
Protein for Fat Burning
by Dr. John Berardi
Protein is by far the most thermogenic of the macronutrients (protein, carbohydrate, and fat). Due to the high metabolic costs of processing it, protein provides fewer storable kcal. The thermic effect of a mixed meal is about 10% of intake, while the thermic effect of protein per se is more like 25-30%. That could mean reving up your metabolism by 200 kcal just from your 200-gram (800 kcal) protein intake.

Dr. John Berardi’s stuff is awesome. I highly recommend his precision nutrition manual. The dvd set of his seminar that it comes with is worth the price alone!!
This is an awesome way to boost your metabolism. I’m sure you’ve heard rather than eating 3 large meals, you should eat 6 small meals cause it helps boast your metabolism. A protein shake is a good substitute for a meal. Because no one wants to spend all their time in the kitchen.
Nice post! Do you have any suggestion for how vegans can get proteins?
I’ve never really looked into vegan specific ideas, so I really couldn’t help you with that one! I’m sure you could go with things like lentils and other beans that have a decent protein content. But I’m really not a person to ask on that one!

Very interesting tips …
It is true that it will take more calories to burn a steak than a tomato.
Do keep in mind that burning calories is only one outcome.
Another things to consider is how acidic or alkaline your body is.
Eating meat is not appropriate for everyone, just like being vegetarian doesn’t work for everyone either.
