What the Heck are Secondary Protein Sources + Why Should You Eat Them?

from Embrace Your Real · host Julie Ledbetter

Did you know I am aim to eat 140-150 grams of protein a day? I know that may seem like a lot for you, right?  Protein seems to be the hardest macronutrient (amongst carbs and fats) to consume enough of daily. Carbs and fat are easy, they are in abundance in our diet, and they are also the tastiest and foods we crave most. But no one ever has protein cravings. If they do, it's rare. It's not like you're on your period and thinking "Oh my gosh I'm seriously craving chicken right now" the way that we do with carbs and fats.  Now, I'm not saying everyone needs to be consuming 140-150 grams of protein every single day. This is just how much my body needs. You need to figure out what your body needs. And once you do figure it out, you need to figure out how to hit that goal. I know it seems like a daunting goal and maybe even impossible to do daily, and that's why I want to introduce you to secondary protein sources. P.S.: I know that counting macros can seem daunting, but I've made it extremely simple with my Macro Counting Made Simple Online Academy.  Basically, I calculate your macros for you, educate you on how I calculated them, and then give you all the tools you need to continue macro counting.
