30 reasons to walk 30 minutes a day
Did you know that walking is one of the best whole-body health habits you can have?
Just 30 minutes a day can be life-changing! When you’re walking at a moderate pace, your body is in low-intensity steady-state (LISS) cardio, which burns fat, not muscle.💥
When you’re in a calorie deficit and eating well, walking is one of the best ways to burn fat and maintain muscle mass without increasing your appetite.

How Much Protein Do You Need?
🤔 Did you know that the minimum amount of protein you should aim for each day is 0.36 grams per pound of your body weight? But if you are trying to build muscle, you want to eat closer to 1 gram of protein per pound of your ideal body weight!

Bottom line? If you’re active, try to have 20-40 grams of protein in each meal and snack.
- For most active men: 6-8 palm-sized servings of protein per day.
- For most active women: 4-6 palm-sized servings per day.

If this is a lot more protein than you are used to, we have some tips for you!

HOW TO GET MORE PROTEIN✨
☀️ Start your day with a protein-packed breakfast:
- Try a protein-based smoothie made with Greek yogurt, fruit, greens, and Life Shake.
- Consider an omelet filled with veggies like spinach, mushrooms, and peppers.
🍽️ Fill a third of your lunch or dinner plate with protein:
- Add a scoop of chickpeas or a chicken breast to your salad.
- Swap your standard pasta for a higher-protein variety (such as lentil or chickpea-based noodles).
- Add more protein and crunch to plant-based side dishes, by topping them with a spoonful of pumpkin seeds or nuts. Or sprinkle some cheese on vegetables before popping them into the oven.
🥚For snacks, enjoy grab-n-go protein sources:
- Try hard-boiled eggs, protein bars, or yogurt.
- Keep celery or carrot sticks on hand to dip in nut butter or hummus.

It’s time to talk protein! Protein truly supports your body in a holistic way––from your metabolism to your quality of life.

WHOLE BODY-AND-MIND BENEFITS OF PROTEIN✨

• 🔥Weight and Metabolism: Helps you build and maintain lean body mass––and the more lean body mass you have, the more calories you burn at rest! Because it keeps you feeling full for longer, eating more protein often causes people to eat less overall.
• 💪Repair, Healing, and Strength: Vital for wound healing, tissue repair, and to keep you strong. Your body needs protein to build and maintain muscles.
• 🌟 Digestion: Your digestive system needs it to make the enzymes that break down your food.
• 🛡️Immunity: Your immune system needs it to make the antibodies that combat any nasty bacteria, viruses, and toxins that come your way.
• 🍽️ Energy and Nourishment: Essential for getting nutrients like vitamins, minerals, and oxygen into your cells. Getting enough of protein in a meal helps you feel sustained longer after eating. Your body can also use it as an energy source.
• ☀️Mood: Provides certain amino acids needed to create happy brain chemicals that impact mood.

I had this for lunch today. Can you guess what it is? It was so good!!

February is Heart Month. Do you know how your heart works?
Imagine the vascular system as your body's plumbing. The heart is the pump, the arteries and veins are the pipes, and the blood is the water that flows through the entire system.

Over time, fat, cholesterol, calcium, and other substances found in your blood build up as plaque and stick to the arterial walls, much like how grease and other contaminants build up in your home's piping system.

As the plaque grows, your arteries narrow and harden, restricting the amount of blood that flows through them, which leads to your heart muscle not getting the oxygen it needs to function properly.
