With a few suggestions and changes, your diet can be greatly improved, and you could see some weight start to melt off. Drink Water Everyone knows that water is essential for our bodies. All of our tissues, organs, and cells use water to maintain bodily functions, keep hydrated, and regulate temperature. Plus, water can be a lubricant to cushion your joints. When you drink water, you are helping your overall health. The CDC says that everybody should drink water each day. Heart Health and Water Water is extremely important for your heart. Our hearts constantly work to pump 2000 gallons of blood through our bodies daily. When you drink water and keep your body hydrated, you will help your heart do what it is supposed to do. Your heart can pump the blood a lot easier when you are hydrated. It lets the rest of your body's muscles work better. If you feel thirsty, your body is already dehydrated. Weight Loss and Water Water is calorie-free, and when you substitute water for juice or soda, you are reducing your caloric intake. Just changing on 20 ounces sugary beverage for a glass of water will reduce the number of calories you are putting into your body by 240. There aren't any standards for the number of glasses of water you need to drink each day since the intake will vary due to weight, sex, age, and a lot of other factors. A normal recommendation for a male over the age of 19 is to drink about 3.7 liters of water daily. A female over 19 years of age needs to drink 2.7 liters of water each day. Pregnant or lactating females should drink between 3 and 3.8 liters of water daily. These values take into consideration the water you get from foods and other beverages during your day. Hydration When you drink water, it keeps you from getting dehydrated. Being dehydrated can cause constipation, overheating, mood changes, confusion, and many other symptoms. The CDC says in order to decrease your chances of getting dehydrated, you need to drink some kind of drink with each meal and drink anytime you feel thirsty. A good way to see if you are drinking enough water is to look at your urine. If it is a dark yellow color, you need to drink more water. If it is a pale yellow or clear, you are getting enough water. If you don't like water, you can improve water's taste by adding some lime or lemon to it. This might help you get all the water you need if the taste has been the problem. Protein Shakes It doesn't matter if you work out regularly or not; you probably know what protein shakes are. They aren't reserved for just athletes or bodybuilders anymore. Protein powder has gained a lot of popularity in recent years. It doesn't matter your fitness goals or gender; everybody should try to consume enough protein to keep you as healthy as possible. Can Protein Shakes Build Muscle? Whey protein contains amino acids that can help build muscle. During any kind of athletic activity, muscle fibers will break down, and a good quality protein powder could help heal that damage while helping you recover faster. It can also help you have a better workout session. If you want to lean down, many studies have found that exercising and drinking protein shakes can help people who want to lose weight get better results while having less body fat and more lean muscles. It can also help improve your metabolism, which means you will burn more calories each day compared to people who don't exercise or drink protein shakes. Please understand that just drinking protein shakes isn't going to get you these results. This can only happen with a balanced diet and exercise. Other Benefits Protein shakes can help regenerate and refuel your muscles after your workout, helps improve your performance, and keep good overall health. Women need to get the right amount of protein to maintain and grow strong hair and nails because these are made from protein. Benefits won't stop there. Even though most women don't like taking a protein supplement because they don't want to look "manly," it is a good way to get in shape and gives you a holistic approach to wellness and health. Whey protein shakes can help manage weight, help control hunger, stabilize blood sugar, and reduce sugar cravings. How Much Protein? When it comes to serving sizes, it depends on you and your activity level. It would be best to experiment with portions until you find what works best for you. As a normal guide, if you want to lose a few pounds, you should drink 20 to 30 grams per serving. If you just want to build muscles, you should drink about 35 grams per serving. When To Drink Protein Shakes? Protein shakes can give you benefits both before and after your workout. It works great as a healthy snack that will fill you up. It is great for women who have busy lives. Even though it is great to have a protein-rich diet, protein shakes can increase the protein that you consume without adding extra fat and carbs that are usually present in the foods you eat, including legumes, beans, eggs, soy, fish, and meat. Protein shakes would be good to drink each morning as a quick meal that is easy for the body to digest. You could drink it before a workout as a snack. If you drink it about 45 minutes before you exercise, it could boost your energy levels, help you work harder and longer. If you drink a protein shake about 30 minutes after your workout, it will help your muscles recover quicker. Avoid Processed Foods Healthy experts don't agree on a lot, but they agree that we should be eating fewer processed foods. Processed foods are any type of food that is altered during preparation, making it more flavorful, convenient, and shelf-stable. Some foods are more processed than others. Purchasing pre-cut beans or a bagged salad is technically process foods, but they are minimally processed because there hasn't been a change to their natural state. However, a mac and cheese box is heavily processed because there have been chemical changes to the food with other additives added in.
