Why a High-Protein Breakfast is a Game Changer
Starting your day with a high-protein meal can help with satiety, stable blood sugar levels, and improved focus and energy throughout the day. Unlike carb-heavy breakfasts that can lead to energy crashes, protein-rich meals help regulate hunger hormones and keep cravings in check. They’re also crucial for muscle repair and growth, making them a perfect choice for active individuals or anyone looking to maintain lean muscle mass.
