BENEFITS OF HIGH PROTEIN SNACKS
Protein snacks offer numerous health benefits and can help with weight management. Some of the key advantages of incorporating high protein snacks into your diet include:
BOOSTS METABOLISM AND ENERGY
A high protein snack can be a game-changer for your metabolism and energy levels. Unlike carbohydrates or fats, protein requires more energy to digest, which can increase your resting metabolic rate and help you burn more calories throughout the day. Plus, protein helps stabilise your blood sugar levels, preventing those dreaded energy crashes and mood swings. So, whether you’re powering through a busy workday or hitting the gym, protein snacks can keep you energised and focused.
SUPPORTS WEIGHT LOSS AND WEIGHT MANAGEMENT
If you’re on a weight loss journey or simply looking to maintain a healthy weight, grabbing a high protein snack can be your best ally. Protein is known for its ability to build and maintain muscle mass, which in turn boosts your metabolism and supports weight loss. Our high-protein snacks also help you feel fuller for longer, reducing the temptation to overeat or reach for unhealthy snacks. It’s a win-win for your waistline and your overall health.
HELPS BUILD AND REPAIR MUSCLE
For those who are active or engage in regular physical activity, high protein snacks are essential for muscle building and repair. Protein provides the necessary building blocks for muscle growth and recovery, making it a crucial nutrient for athletes and fitness enthusiasts. Incorporating high-protein snacks into your diet ensures that your muscles get the support they need to stay strong and healthy.

WHAT TO LOOK FOR IN A LOW-CARB PROTEIN SNACK
When you're watching your carbs but need a protein boost, choosing the right protein bar or snack is crucial. Here's a breakdown of the ingredients that make a low-carb protein bar truly effective:
KEY INGREDIENTS TO CONSIDER
Protein Powerhouses:
- Whey Protein Isolate (WPI): The gold standard for muscle building and toning. It's the purest form of whey protein, easily absorbed and utilised by your body. Perfect for achieving a lean and strong physique.
- Whey Protein Concentrate (WPC): Packed with peptides that support your immune system and help balance your hormones.
- Calcium Caseinate: This slow-digesting protein forms a gel in your stomach, keeping you feeling full and satisfied for longer – a great aid for appetite control and weight management.
Carb Control & Fat Burning:
- Phaseolamin: Derived from white kidney beans, this natural wonder blocks starch absorption, meaning fewer carbs are converted into fat. Enjoy your potatoes and rice without the guilt!
- Green Coffee Extract: Contains powerful antioxidants that help prevent carbs from being stored as fat.
- L-Carnitine: This amino acid helps your body burn fat for fuel, maximising your energy levels – especially beneficial if you lead an active lifestyle.
Metabolic Boosters:
- Choline and Inositol: This dynamic duo keeps fat moving through your system, making it readily available for energy instead of being stored.
- Green Tea Extract: Rich in catechins, these antioxidants support a healthy fat metabolism.
- Dairy Calcium: Reduces fat absorption and helps you shed those extra pounds, while also supporting strong bones.
By understanding these key ingredients, you can make informed choices and select a low-carb protein bar that not only satisfies your hunger but also supports your fitness goals and overall well-being.
HOW MUCH PROTEIN DO WOMEN NEED?
As a general guide, the recommended daily allowance of protein for women is approximately 46 grams per day for adults. There are some factors that can impact this including age, activity level and muscle-building goals.
Protein intake by age:
- Adolescents: 34-46 grams
- Adult women: 46 grams
- Pregnant and breastfeeding women: Additional 25 grams of protein per day during pregnancy and lactation
Protein intake for optimal muscle-building
To support muscle growth it's recommended for women to consume 1.2 to 2.2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight as a general guideline. This higher range is often recommended for those engaged in resistance training or intense physical activity.
Active women, especially those who engage in regular exercise, may require more protein to support muscle repair and growth. Athletes often need higher protein intakes to support their training and recovery. The exact amount of additional protein needed depends on the intensity and duration of physical activity.
