Perfect Protein Vanilla 780g

HELPS BUILD AND REPAIR MUSCLE

Protein provides us with the building blocks to synthesize and repair body tissues, including muscles. Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), which are found in good concentrations in this formula, are of particular importance for this. This plant-based protein powder is helpful if you are wanting to maintain and even build healthy muscle mass. Protein is especially important after exercise [1], to repair damaged muscle and help it grow back stronger. Research tells us that eating protein before and after exercise helps increase muscle recovery, promote muscle building and can even reduce muscle ache.

SUPPORTS HEALTHY WEIGHT

Protein helps make you feel full which can then prevent overeating and snacking - a huge advantage when working towards a healthy weight. Eating protein also creates a process in the body known as thermogenesis, which requires the body to expend more energy (calories) in order to digest food [2]. Consuming 25–30% of your total daily calories from protein has been shown to boost metabolism by up to 80–100 calories per day, compared with lower protein diets.

IMPROVES BRAIN FUNCTION AND LEARNING

We need protein to make enzymes, hormones and neurotransmitters, many of which are critical for cognitive function and learning. They are also highly involved in our response to stress [3]. The brain requires a steady supply of amino acids in order to keep concentration, focus and energy levels up. Studies show that when amino acid deprivation takes place, learning and coordination suffers, but once all necessary amino acids are reintroduced into the diet, learning and motor skills improve.
