Marc's Fat Loss Secret #7 - Whey Powder

Your body replaces lean weight at various rates, depending on the tissue. Your muscles, brain cells, organs and even your genes are pure protein. You get a new skin every 15 days and you replace most protein in your muscle in six months. So the protein you eat builds right into your structure. Eat garbage proteins and get a garbage body. To get the most out of your efforts you need to get first-class proteins to maintain, repair and make your body strong. As well, the protein in whey is a powerful immune booster.

That’s where whey comes in. Whey is a derivative of milk, produced during the manufacturing of cheese. In its original form, whey has a similar effect on the digestion as yogurt. It is regarded as a natural cleanser and remedy for many intestinal complaints.

But there is something more special about whey, especially for athletes and those who lead an active lifestyle. Whey contains “peptides” which provide the highest quality of protein known. There is no storage system for protein so you have to get the right protein every day. The best measure of protein is Biological Value (eggs used to top the list), which measures the amount of protein retained in the human body.
