The Four Legs of the Table - Make Weight Management Possible
To successfully manage weight – and your health – it’s helpful to think of The Four Legs of the Table.
Four legs are better than one for balancing the table, right?
Your body needs the same support. These four things are “stabilizers.” Working together, they make successful weight loss and weight maintenance possible.
The Four Legs:
- Muscle: To manage weight and health, you need lean muscle. Muscle is metabolically active. It burns calories.
- Exercise: For your body to make muscle, you need to strain the muscles gently, to cause the muscle tissue to micro tear and repair itself, grow stronger – with more lean muscle.
- Protein: When your body tries to make muscle after exercise – or any other time – it needs high quality protein.
- Metabolism: More muscle, and a protein first diet leads to a healthier metabolism. Simply, you burn more calories every day.
Those of you who attend our support groups (sign up free here) know that you need 30 grams of protein at one time to activate muscle tissue synthesis. The protein in UNJURY® Protein is the best you can buy for making new tissue because it is highest in leucine, an amino acid building block.
Even better, “30-30-30” – 30 grams of high-quality protein – 3 times a day, spread out, with a high leucine protein, helps to protect your muscle every day. This is the best way to keep your metabolism up as you age.
How to get 30 grams of protein?
The easiest way is 1 ½ scoops of UNJURY® in water or plant milk, OR 1 full scoop in a cup of skim milk. Let us know if we can help with more information Email Service@UNJURY.com
