Protein Bars & Shakes

Why Do I Need Protein?

As you probably know, protein is the building block of lean muscle mass. But protein plays so many other roles in your body. You need protein to create connective tissues, build antibodies, form digestive enzymes, and so much more.

Your body also utilizes protein as a source of energy to help fuel you through a workout. Plus, squeezing protein into meals and snacks throughout the day can improve satiety, so you feel full for longer stretches. This added benefit can make it easier for you to reach your weight loss goals.

How Much Protein Do I Need Each Day?

The amount of protein you need each day depends on your weight and activity level. In general, men and women need 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight to meet the Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA). You might need even more if you’re highly active.

Since your targeted protein intake is based on complex calculations, your dedicated weight loss physician at Dr. G’s Weight Loss & Wellness sits down with you and educates you on how much protein you need and how to incorporate protein into your diet. Because Dr. G’s Weight Loss & Wellness designs a wide variety of premier protein bars and shakes, you won’t have any trouble finding ways to reach your protein goals each day.

Which Protein Bars and Shakes Should I Try?

Dr. G’s Weight Loss & Wellness proudly offers many types of delicious protein bars and shakes in a multitude of flavors. Though you may find one or two bars or shakes that you love and wind up sticking with them, with so many options available, you can try something different at each meal.

During your physician-supervised weight loss consultation, your practitioner discusses all of the different protein bars and shakes available at Dr. G’s Weight Loss & Wellness. Even though protein bars are great for grab-and-go options, you may prefer to personalize a protein shake with flavored powder and your favorite fruits and vegetables. Your physician helps you learn to incorporate protein bars and shakes into your meal planning, so you can achieve optimal weight loss success.
