Lean Protein
When you’re looking to increase your protein consumption, you want to focus on lean sources of protein.
This includes things such as chicken breast and lean beef.
Lean protein sources exclude items such as beef or pork, which have more saturated fat.
In addition to helping you build muscle, protein is actually harder for our body to digest, meaning that we burn more calories in trying to do so.
This is referred to as the “thermic effect of food.”
Since our body has to work harder to digest lean protein, we end up storing fewer usable calories than if we eat carbohydrates or fat.
