PowerHouse Shake
Adding protein powder to your daily nutrition provides tremendous support for your body. Firstly it’s an easy way to help meet your daily protein goal. Now this will be different for everyone (one of my fav topics to discuss) but for active women in Midlife, the goal is 30-40 grams of protein for each meal (breakfast, lunch & dinner). Why? Protein helps build muscle mass which is metabolic tissue, which burns calories (energy) at rest. Helpful for maintaining a healthy body weight as your hormones fluctuate. Protein powder also supports muscle tears a.k.a. soreness you experience following an intense, targeted workout.
This recipe is absolutely delicious and an amazing way to add more seeds into your diet.
