There are 3 macronutrients that make up most of what we eat:
- Protein
- Carbs
- Fat
When it comes to making you feel full, protein is the king of the hill.
According to recent research, protein intake triggers the release of GLP-1 hormones (yes, those GLP-1 meds that are capturing everyone's attention these days) which help regulate appetite.
I don't know about you, but I'd rather eat a protein-rich meal than take an injection!
As an added bonus, protein also has a higher thermogenic effect than carbs or fats...meaning that your body expends more energy to digest some chicken compared to eating a donut!
That's why I designed every mighty bowl of Todd's Power Oats to have at least 30 grams of protein.
And my latest flavor–Peanut Butter Monster–has a whopping 37 grams of protein!
If you're looking to build your breakfast around protein, it doesn't get any easier than this!
Be good to your self!
