Is protein supplementing a good idea?
Your protein requirement (at the top end
of the scale) for your training and weight loss goals are
about 55 grams - so all you are doing by eating this bar is
adding more calories from protein. If you want to obtain an
optimal body weight for your peak health then you have to
go into energy imbalance - that is, you will have to burn
more calories then you take in from food. Is takes alot of
time and effort to add even more exercise into the lifestyle
of someone who is already getting fitness benefits of regular
physical activity. It is however, quite easy to look at some
changes that you could make to your diet (that is, from FOODS
that you eat) rather than by trying to get your nutrition
from supplement bars. These bars only supplement your diet
- they do not improve it! So....to find out how much food
you need to eat and changes you could make, take a look at
the following "Getting
On Track".
