A high protein diet as part of your healthy eating guidelines enhances fat loss according to researchers at Skidmore College.
They found that when subjects followed a high-protein diet 40% or more of total daily calories from protein for eight weeks they lost significantly more bodyfat than those following a low-fat/high carb diet.
Particularly they lose more in their abdominal fat region.
One reason for this was eating more protein boosts levels of peptide YY, a hormone that is produced by gut cells that travel to the brain to decrease hunger and increase satiety.
Make sure you if you want to accelerate your weight loss efforts to include high quality protein meals into your healthy eating guidelines.
Yours in good health,
