Having spoken to lots of different people about their training goals lately, i felt it important to offer some help on protein options.
Protein is highly important for those who are training as it provides the building blocks in which muscle is repaired.
For those who find themselves going through menopause, or even peri menopause should also be prioritising protein as it aids muscle strength and bone function - something which begins to decrease in these stages.
Have a look at how much protein you are having per day - I bet it's not as much as you may think. Making sure you have protein at every meal time is a great place to start.
Tuna, lentils, quinoa, eggs, salmon, yoghurt, cottage cheese, chicken, beef, nuts, beans, peas are just a handful of natural protein sources on offer. If your after something more convienent and on the go, protein shakes, quark and flavoured protein yoghurt are a great choice.
