The Importance of a High Protein Low Carb Diet
Protein is an essential nutrient that helps to build and repair muscle tissue. A diet high in protein has been shown to aid in weight loss, increase satiety and even improve blood sugar control. On the other hand, carbs are easily converted to sugar and can cause fluctuations in energy levels and blood sugar. This diet is popular because of its weight loss and improvements in plasma benefits. However, after six months, a high protein and low carb diet is not sustainable and increases cardiovascular risk because of the lack of complex carbs in the diet.
The Benefits of a High Protein Low Carb Diet
Sugary coffee, bagel, or cereal, often makes people feel sluggish and STARVING come lunchtime. This is because carbs alone do not provide a sustained release of energy throughout the morning as protein does. Carbs are quickly broken down into glucose and absorbed into the bloodstream. This can cause a spike in blood sugar and insulin levels. As blood sugar levels drop, so do energy and the feeling of fullness. They may be more likely to snack on unhealthy foods throughout the day. When people eat a high-carb meal with little protein, they miss out on the benefits of protein.
Tips for Incorporating More Protein into Your Breakfast
Ok, so how are people reaching those crazy high-protein goals? Well, besides the obvious protein powders and eating meat, here are some other ways we added extra protein to our recipes:
- Incorporate more eggs: Eggs are a great source of protein and can be prepared in various ways.
- Add nuts and seeds: Nuts are excellent protein sources and healthy fats. Add a handful of almonds, walnuts, or pumpkin seeds to your breakfast for a protein boost.
- Use protein-rich veggies: Some vegetables like broccoli, spinach, and asparagus contain reasonable amounts of protein. Incorporating them into omelets, soups, salads, or sautéed for a side dish is a great way to add more protein.
- Experiment with meat alternatives: Meat alternatives such as tofu, tempeh, and seitan are excellent protein sources and can be used in various dishes. Treat like meat! Marinate, sear, grill, etc.! It does make all the difference.
- Prioritize high-protein, low-carb snacks: Instead of reaching for high-carb options like crackers or sugary fruits, choose low-carb and high-protein options like hard-boiled eggs, nuts, and seeds, cheese, Greek yogurt, or meat sticks.
