Protein: The Foundation of Healthy Nutrition

Protein is the cornerstone of healthy eating, especially for those who engage in fitness or aim to stay in shape. In our cozy women’s gym, we emphasize the importance of a balanced diet that helps you achieve your goals. In this article, we’ll explore how to easily obtain 30 grams of protein from various sources and why it’s so important for your body.

Why is protein so important?
Protein is a key element for the recovery of muscles, skin, organs, and even blood. For those who train regularly, protein supports muscle growth and improves recovery after physical activity. Scientific studies show that the optimal protein intake is 20–30 grams per meal. This helps maintain stable energy levels, a feeling of satiety, and a healthy metabolism.

How to measure 30 grams of protein?
You don’t need kitchen scales or constant label-checking. We’ve prepared a simple guide with examples to help you quickly determine the right portion of protein.

Popular protein sources:

  • Boiled eggs (5 pcs):
    • Calories: 388
    • Proteins: 31.5 g
    • Fats: 26.5 g

Eggs are a great addition to your diet. To reduce calories, use only egg whites, but you’ll need about 8 whites for the same amount of protein.

  • Chicken fillet (113 g):
    • Calories: 164
    • Proteins: 29.2 g
    • Fats: 5.2 g

Why is balanced nutrition the key?
In addition to protein intake, it’s important to maintain a balance between essential nutrients: fats, carbs, and proteins. Excessive amounts of one component can affect workout efficiency and overall well-being.

Tips for a balanced diet:

  • Control portions. A small amount of quality protein helps avoid overeating.
  • Add vegetables. They are rich in fiber, which aids digestion.
  • Don’t forget about fats. They help absorb vitamins.
