Is It Time for a High Protein Diet?

Now may be time to consider a diet high in protein if you have had trouble with weight management or if your active lifestyle demands lean energy. Protein is a basic building block of the human body and the major component of cells including those in bone and muscle. In our bodies it makes up roughly 16 percent of our total body weight and is used for growth and to combat infections by increasing immunity. It is an element that is needed throughout the life of our bodies, and now there is research that indicates it can help us control weight.

Dieting trends for weight control have seen a shift from low-carb diets to high-protein diets in recent years. According to Donald Layman, PhD, professor at the University of Illinois, says “diets higher in protein [and] moderate in carbs, along with a lifestyle of regular exercise have an excellent potential to reduce blood lipids [and] maintain lean tissue while burning fat for fuel without dieters being sidetracked with constant hunger”. High protein diets are also incorporated by athletes whose higher activity levels demand energy from protein to be used in competition and not stored because our bodies do not store protein like is stores fat and glucose.

The standard method used by nutritionists to estimate our minimum daily protein requirement is to multiply the body weight in kilograms by .8, or weight in pounds by .37. This is the number of grams of protein that should be the daily minimum. According to this method, a person weighing 150 lbs. should eat 55 grams of protein per day, a 200-pound person should get 74 grams, and a 250-pound person, 92 grams. You could avoid this complication and just take in more than the minimal amount.

Low Sugar Breakfast Cereal Package from Serial Cereals

The breakfast cereal market has taken a lot of heat in recent years over the high levels of sugar found in cereal boxes claiming to be a healthy breakfast option. One study cited by Body Confidential found that one out of 28 children’s cereals in the study registered more than 15 grams of sugar per serving. Concerned parents and people with low tolerance to glucose can now streamline their mornings with a new package from Serial Cereals.

Serial Cereals introduces the Low Sugar package that ships three premium breakfast cereals to your door that are intelligently classified as low in sugar content. Instead of relying solely on the nutritional facts that breakdown sugar based on varying serving sizes, Serial Cereals has alleviated the headache of complicated math at the grocery store.

Nutritional Facts are based on varying serving sizes, so it is difficult to compare cereals side-by-side. Serial Cereals has solved this for you by basing the Low Sugar package on a consistent 1 cup serving size. For example, instead of comparing 1/4 cup to 3/4 cup the Low Sugar package only includes quality products with less than 9 grams of sugar per 1 cup serving size.

For a complete breakdown parents and diabetics can skip the cereal aisle and go to SerialCereals.com to find a precompiled list of the cereals that meet the 9 grams per cup threshold. At SerialCereals.com simply select the Low Sugar package then view the online sampling where each product includes nutritional facts, ingredients and a table adjusted for a 1 cup serving size.
