Does a High Protein Diet Promote Weight Loss?

First off, Protein is good. I like getting my protein from steaks the most. I try not to eat steak to much since it contains fats and this will not aid in weight loss. Protein triggers a hormone inside the body that will satisfy your hunger. This will cause you to eat less.

By eating foods with proteins in the morning, it will trigger this hormone and you will feel full throughout the day. This will aid in weight loss because you won't be taking in as many calories through out the day.

To lose weight, you have to watch what comes with the protein. If a lot of fat comes with the protein, you are going to want to make a different choice. Try to pick the leanest cuts if its beef. Fish and Poultry are the best choices for protein in animal meat.

The best source of protein is in vegetables. This is because vegetables don't have that high fat concentration. Vegetables also include a whole bunch of minerals and vitamins that are good for the body.

Vegetables with the complete amount of amino acids for the proteins are as follows, soy beans and other soy products, buck wheat, spirulina and the grain quinoa.

Incomplete vegetables have to be combined with other incomplete vegetables to make a complete protein. Here is a list of a few incomplete vegetables. Grains such as barley, bulgur, cornmeal, oats, rice, pasta, rye, wheat. Legumes are beans, lentils, dried peas, peanuts, chickpeas, soy products. Nuts and seeds are sesame seeds, sunflower seeds, walnuts, cashews, pumpkins seeds and plenty of other nuts. When combined from 2 of the groups, this forms complete protein.

Proteins do aid in weight loss. They will make you feel fullier and will decrease your calorie intake cause of this.
