3 myths about high-protein diets: problematic requirements

Many people say that the use of high-protein diets is associated with the intake of massive amounts of protein. Nothing could be further from the truth! According to experts, a daily intake of protein in an adult and regularly trained person should be between 1.6 and 2 g/kg of body weight and should be adjusted according to a number of important factors, such as gender, current weight, goal and level of exercise intensity. However, if there is a problem with maintaining optimal intake, it is worth supporting your daily diet with protein supplements or high-protein snacks in the form of bars or cakes, which are offered by the Olimp Sport Nutrition brand! Which ones are worth choosing?

3 myths about high-protein diets: animal-based protein only

Another frequently repeated myth about a high-protein diet is the firm belief that plant proteins are irrelevant in the context of building muscle mass or working on a muscular figure. It is nonsense! Plant proteins contain as many valuable amino acids as animal protein, and the products that are its sources additionally have more fibre than meat or eggs. However, assimilability is worse and a significant portion of the protein is not absorbed by the body.

That's why Olimp Sport Nutrition has created a unique Veggie Protein Complex - a product in the form of an easily soluble powder with a natural or chocolate taste, which delivers a mixture of high-quality proteins from pumpkin seeds, peas and brown rice in each serving! The product was created for vegans and vegetarians, which is proven by the complete lack of any animal-based ingredients. The product does not contain lactose, gluten, sugar and popular allergens.

3 myths about high-protein diets: more difficult weight loss

Finally, the real classic, the constant perception of a high-protein diet as a restricted option to get rid of the excess weight. Protein is a macronutrient that provides the body with satiety, and the digestive tract itself requires adequate involvement in its digestion. This is quite strong evidence that a diet high in protein is a valuable support for weight control and weight loss. What is more, protein does not have too many calories and supports the maintenance of muscle mass - that is why after getting rid of the fat it will provide favourable conditions for further work on your athletic body! The myth of strict use of this diet only in professionals has long since been disproved. Practically everyone can try high-protein diets, which will certainly bring significant benefits.
