Protein

Protein is an essential nutrient that maintains muscle mass, metabolism, gives you energy, fuels oxygen in your blood, and maintains your immune system. We need protein in our everyday lives, but especially after exercise to help build and repair muscles. After all, you don’t want that tough workout to go to waste!

Proteins are derived from various sources such as whey, eggs, plants, casein, and animals such as chicken or meat. The best proteins are complete proteins that provide all nine branched chain amino acids that your body does not produce on its own. For best results, consume protein within 30 minutes of exercise to prevent muscle breakdown.
