UNJURY Support Group – Protein for Bariatric Patients
Protein is all important your health. Every cell is made with protein. Protein is also necessary to produce hormones and enzymes. Even your bones are made with protein.
It is fundamental to weight loss. So, there is a lot to know:
- How much protein is best?
- How does the body use protein during rapid weight loss?
- Why bariatric patients need to understand amino acids?
- Which kind of protein is best, and worst?
- What happens when you don’t get enough protein?
- How can muscle loss after WLS set up weight regain later?
