How to choose protein when losing weight

Physical gain caused by non-disease, that is, simple obesity, is usually caused by excessive calories in food, so controlling diet is a necessary means to lose weight. The most important way to control your diet is to reduce the daily intake of oils and sugars, but you cannot reduce protein, vitamins and trace elements.

Protein is not the main source of daily calories, but it is the main raw material that constitutes human organs, hormones and immune substances. The daily protein requirement per person is about 80 grams, and more people who exercise a lot, such as bodybuilders.

Among animal proteins, milk and egg proteins are of the best quality among all protein foods. The reason is that they are the easiest to digest, have complete amino acids, and are not easy to cause gout attacks.

The protein content of egg yolk is slightly higher than that of egg white, but an egg yolk can contain up to 300 mg of cholesterol. Even people without heart disease should not eat more egg yolk, and the cholesterol content of egg white is 0; Egg yolks contain a lot of oil. We can't see any oil in the usual egg yolks, but when you put the egg yolks in the microwave and roast them, you will find that a large amount of oil can flow out. The oil of the egg yolks can also be seen in the egg yolks of salted eggs. The calories of the egg yolks are 6 times that of protein, so egg yolks are also high-calorie food and are food that people who lose weight need to eat less.

In addition to supplying protein, milk can also provide rich calcium, which can prevent calcium deficiency. Skimmed milk powder has the highest calcium content and almost no oil content. Therefore, milk made from skimmed milk powder is the best source of protein and calcium for adults to maintain a slim figure.

Among the best vegetable proteins is soy protein, which contains 35% protein and is very easily absorbed. Therefore, soy protein has always been the main source of protein for vegetarians. Soy products can lower cholesterol and fight cancer. In addition, edible fungi are also the main source of protein for slimming people. (Editor in charge: Yang Miao Intern Editor: Yan Yugeng)
