1, when to eat protein powder?
Protein powder can replenish protein needed by human body in time, reduce the damage of muscle tissue, promote the synthesis of protein, and even recover excessively, thus increasing muscle and improving strength. So, how to eat protein powder?
The main function of protein powder is to correct malnutrition in protein. It is mainly suitable for patients with negative nitrogen balance due to trauma, burn, large area skin ulceration, major surgery, tumor radiotherapy and chemotherapy, etc.
Generally speaking, after a night's rest in the morning, the body's consumption during the day has recovered, and the body function is the most vigorous. I haven't eaten for a long time, and I need to replenish it urgently. So at this time, the digestive system such as the stomach and intestines has the strongest digestion and absorption capacity, and the absorbed protein does not need to be used to restore the body, but will accumulate in the body. It is recommended to eat protein powder in the morning.
Eating protein powder on an empty stomach will be consumed as a general "hot food", wasting valuable high-quality protein sources. So, eat some other foods before or at the same time as eating protein powder. Patients can only eat liquid, and can add protein powder to milk, soybean milk, cereal, malt extract and other foods to eat together.
Eat warm or cold, not hot or hot. Whey protein powder contains many active substances with special physiological functions. They are all afraid of heat, and once heated, they will lose their activity, thus greatly reducing their biological potency. Therefore, whey protein powder must not be cooked or burned, but can only be dissolved (mixed) in water, porridge, malt extract and other foods below 40℃, and can also be eaten as a cold drink.
Don't eat with acidic drinks. Apple juice and other beverages contain organic acids, which will form clots when encountering protein powder, affecting digestion and absorption.
Protein contained in protein powder is of high quality. In vivo, it must be decomposed by the liver and then synthesized into its own tissue components, and its metabolites must be excreted from urine through the kidney. Patients with serious diseases such as liver and kidney diseases may increase the burden on organs after eating protein powder.
2. Food rich in protein
1. milk
A few years ago, China put forward the slogan that a bag of milk a day makes China people strong. Today, milk has become an indispensable drink for many families. Experts pointed out that milk contains a lot of nutrients, in addition to milk, there are goat milk and horse milk, and the nutrients contained in these dairy products have the effect of improving human resistance.
Milk, in particular, is rich in calcium, which can not only effectively prevent rickets and osteoporosis, but also effectively prevent various bone diseases. Besides, milk is also a kind of high-protein food, which contains protein that all foods can't match. Therefore, in our daily life, we might as well drink a glass of milk every day to enhance our body's resistance.

Protein is very rich in all animal meat foods, such as pigs, dog meat, chickens, ducks and geese. Through research, it is found that the amino acids in animal meat are most consistent with those in animal protein, so experts remind that it is best to choose animal meat as the first choice when supplementing protein.
Protein contained in animal meat food is not only very rich, but also very beneficial to human digestion and absorption, and the kinds of amino acids contained in it are also very complete. Even if you eat too much, you don't have to worry about gout attacks.

Step 3: eggs
What's wrong with high-protein food? The common egg foods in our life are also high-protein foods, such as eggs, duck eggs and quail eggs. These egg foods are not only rich in protein, but also can be seen everywhere in our life. And through research, it is found that the protein in egg yolk is higher than that in protein, so people who urgently need to supplement protein should eat more eggs and other egg foods in their daily lives. But patients with high cholesterol should pay attention to avoid eating egg yolk because it contains a lot of cholesterol.
Moreover, the calorie of egg yolk is six times that of protein, and only one egg yolk is needed to meet people's daily calorie demand, so it is a good diet food for dieters. However, because egg yolk still contains a lot of oil, we should pay special attention not to overdo it when eating, otherwise it will also lead to obesity. 4. beans
Facing the food with high content in protein, the content of protein in bean food is also very rich, such as dried bean curd and yuba, which are very common bean products in our daily life. Moreover, bean products not only have the characteristics of high protein, but also have the advantage of low calorie. If you eat too much, you don't have to worry about getting fat. 5. Chicken and duck.
Through research, it is found that white meat food is actually healthier than red meat, and the protein contained in it is even richer than red meat food. Therefore, poultry meat has always been at the top of healthy food, and nutritionists also suggest replacing red meat with white meat in daily life.
Faced with the problem of high protein content in foods, these are the most common and abundant foods in daily life, but we should also pay attention to the appropriate amount of protein.
