Completing Goal: Eat More Protein

Day 7 Secret

Eat broccoli with your dinner 5 times a week.

Why it matters?

When people try to consume more protein, they tend to focus on meat with their main meals because it’s the easiest way to obtain some. However, it’s vital that you don’t avoid vegetables, since they give us vital nutrients, and nothing does this better than broccoli. It contains 2.8 grams of protein per 100 grams, and it’s a lot easier to eat than meat! If you’re tired of broccoli, try to at least have some kind of veg with your meat five times a week.

To conclude our advice on protein

Most of the foods we consume contain some protein, but a majority are packed with other dangerous ingredients, especially processed foods. Try to take our suggestions to heart and get into the habit of eating protein-rich foods with every main meal, or even as a snack. It isn’t particularly difficult to eat 50 grams of protein each day if you follow our advice, but it will take some time to get the hang of how much you’re eating each day, unless you plan ahead and know which foods to buy in advance. Your entire body will feel healthier and more energetic, and you’ll be more productive as a consequence.
