Protein Bars & Shakes 

Curb Cravings with Protein Supplements from Weight Loss MD Boulder

Sugar cravings and excessive hunger are some of the pitfalls that often lead to poor meal choices, derailing any weight loss plan. The Weight Loss MD Boulder staff can lead you through how to combat those cravings and avoid hasty decisions with careful meal selections, including protein shakes and bars. Protein has been proven to curb hunger, but many shakes and bars are loaded with sugar and excess calories, so they must be consumed in moderation. As a thoughtful meal replacement, protein supplements can be an excellent source of nutrients that will help you stay on target to achieve your weight loss goals.

Protein as an Effective Weight-Loss Tool

When your body metabolizes food rich in protein, hormones that curb hunger are released, allowing for weight loss, so protein is an effective way to reach your weight loss goals.

Protein Shakes and Bars Help Boulder Residents Achieve Weight Loss

Optimal protein intake is generally 40 to 50 grams daily for healthy adults, however proper weight loss programs evaluate the existing weight and general health of each individual rather than relying on a one-size-fits-all approach. For those who have trouble reaching their required daily intake, protein supplements like shakes and bars can help you achieve the desired amount. When consumed as part of a balanced eating plan, shakes and bars can help you feel full, curb cravings and avoid blood sugar crashes.
