The desire for fitness is intricately linked to the demand for higher protein intake. This is common knowledge for all who seek to get in shape. Protein is the foundation for the growth of bones, muscle, skin, and even hair. The various amino acids constructing it works diligently to repair post-workout muscle tears and provide enough energy for longer-lasting physical activity.
But increasing your daily protein intake is a notorious task. It is essential to consume 1.2-1.7g of protein per kg bodyweight each day.
- 1.4-1.8g per kg BW for active males
- 1.2-2.0g per kg BW for active women
According to a research study posted on NCBI, this ensures a healthy and safe muscle repair and development.
This demand for protein usually goes unmet, as most Indian meals fail to satisfy these needs. This leads to a cat-and-mouse chase for a protein-rich diet that usually leaves out all your favourite Indian meals. Almost always, such a search ends up at a dead-end due to cost-effectiveness or taste and liking. After all, who would want to give up their comfort foods and change their diet from A-Z?
