Both adult and childhood obesity is a growing problem in the western world.  Being obese or overweight greatly increases the risks of suffering from these conditions (to name but a few:)

  • High Cholesterol Levels
  • High Blood Pressure
  • Diabetes
  • Heart Disease
  • Stroke

It therefore is important to keep your weight at a healthy level, via correct diet and exercise.  Including whey protein in this diet can further assist weight loss.  It does this in a number of different ways.  Your body will burn more calories after taking a protein-based meal.  More energy is required by the body to do breakdown proteins.  Appetite suppressing hormones, such as glucagon-like-peptide-1 and cholecystokinin are released by bioactive components of  whey protein. __________________

Casein is also an important protein. In fact because of its slow absorption it is an excellent choice for pre-workout meals. Casein in predominately found in dairy products.
