The Power of Protein in Weight Loss
Protein is essential, especially when on a weight loss journey. It:
- Helps preserve muscle mass while reducing body fat.
- Promotes fullness, reducing cravings and snacking.
- Plays a crucial role in hormone balance.
A straightforward method to boost protein intake is to incorporate Medi-Weightloss protein products into your diet or utilize Medi-Weightloss Chicken Bone Broth as a tasty, protein-packed substitute for water in recipes.
