Getting enough protein--and at the right time--is the key to a long, strong and healthy life. In The Protein Plan , Dr. Natasha Turner draws on the latest research to explain the facts, untangle common myths and provide a sensible plan to ensure you get the protein you need in the right ways. Offering practical strategies, Dr. Turner helps you understand: - How much protein do you really need? - Do you need extra protein to build muscle? - Does age impact how much protein you need and how it is absorbed and digested? - Is your child getting enough protein? - Can you get enough protein from vegan or vegetarian sources? - What foods are the best sources of protein? - What about fat loss and protein? The Protein Plan also includes simple and delicious recipes, strategies for optimum protein absorption at any age, and Dr. Turner''s revolutionary Nutri-Keto program, which is easier to follow and more effective than the standard keto diet.
