Protein Power: Why It’s Essential for Your Health
Protein isn’t just for bodybuilders — it’s vital for every person, every day. It forms the building blocks of skin, hair, muscles, enzymes, and hormones. Yet many in the UK still fail to get enough quality protein consistently. Whether your goal is to maintain muscle mass, improve your immune function, or simply feel more energised, prioritising protein is crucial.
In the UK, the average adult requires around 50g of protein daily, though needs vary depending on age, activity level, and body weight. Unfortunately, popular Western diets often favour carbs and fats over adequate protein.
Top Sources of Protein:
- Lean meats like chicken and turkey
- Fish (especially oily fish)
- Eggs
- Dairy products like Greek yoghurt and cottage cheese
- Plant-based sources such as beans, lentils, tofu, and quinoa
