Protein
Protein powder is simple and great to use when you need some extra protein, for a protein-rich snack, for some quick energy after a workout or as an evening meal before going to bed. Protein powder is usually mixed with liquid such as water or milk. Depending on the amount of liquid and the type of protein, you can either drink it or eat it as a protein pudding. You can also use protein powder in cooking, baking and smoothies to increase the protein content - let your imagination run wild!
How much protein per day?
Proteins are known as the building blocks of the body and are needed in order to be able to build cells, making them important for the body's function. Physical activity can cause you to gain more muscle, which in turn leads to increased protein metabolism in the muscles. If you exercise very hard, the breakdown of the muscles can increase, and they then need to be "repaired". Protein has a great effect on recovery and, along with rest, helps repair the muscles and make them more durable. The protein needed for someone who exercises very hard and wants to build muscle is 1.5-2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight per day. If you weigh 70 kilos and want to get 1.8 grams of protein per kilo of body weight, you multiply 70 by 1.8, which gives you 126 grams of protein per day. To increase protein intake, a dietary supplement of protein powder can be effective and make everyday life easier.
