Importance of Protein in your diet

Importance of Protein in your diet

Eating enough protein on a daily basis is absolutely essential due to its important role in so many of the bodies functions.

It’s necessary to eat protein throughout the day, at regular intervals, because our bodies cannot store protein. For example, carbohydrates and fat can be used for energy or stored in the same form (carbohydrate and fat). However, excess protein eaten is just broken down for energy or stored as fat tissue. It can’t be stored as protein molecules. For this reason, it’s important to ensure a steady supply of protein in each meal and snack.
