INSIGHT

Protein Early Multiplies Outcomes

  • A high-protein diet improves muscle building, fat loss, satiety, and blood sugar control more than many other diet strategies.
  • Hitting protein early (breakfast) prevents impossible protein loads later in the day for active people.
ADVICE

Choose Whole Eggs Over Whites

  • Eat whole eggs rather than only egg whites to maximize muscle-building benefits from yolk nutrients.
  • Whole eggs provide choline and other compounds that support cognition and muscle gains.
ADVICE

Use Cottage Cheese For Quick Protein

  • Use cottage cheese as an easy, high-protein breakfast staple and combine it with eggs for added protein.
  • Add fruit like pineapple or berries for flavor, fiber, and micronutrients.
