15 Pros of Protein Summer

With 30 grams of protein in our full-size Premier Protein Shakes (11 and 11.5 oz), you can unlock tons of wellness wins this summer.

Here are 15 of them.

Physical Wellness Wins

1. Helps you feel fuller longer

With the longer summer days, protein can help you feel full for hours.

2. Supports muscle recovery

30 grams of protein helps support muscle building and recovery with a fitness and weight training regimen.

3. Supports muscle growth*

Is lifting a glass of Frosty Peach Lemonade to your lips considered an exercise? Maybe.

4. The Thermic Advantage; fuel that works harder for you

Protein uses your body’s energy in a helpful way. Your body burns more calories digesting protein than it does digesting carbohydrates or fat based on the thermic effect of food (TEF).

5. Sends your cravings on vacation

Protein helps keep you fuller longer, helping to reduce the urge to snack in between meals.

But if you feel like a protein-packed snack: our Watermelon Protein Sorbet is perfect for pool-side days.

6. Amino Acids- The Building Blocks of your best self

Amino acids are the building blocks for protein and are essential for growing and repairing muscle tissue.

7. Helps combat age-related muscle loss

The more summers you have experienced in your life, the more your body naturally loses muscle.

Adequate protein intake helps with muscle maintenance with a fitness and weight training regimen.

Mindful Wins

8. Helps you feel like your best self.

With protein in your diet and a regular exercise routine, you can feel better physically, which in turn can help you feel more confident and open to trying new things.

Setting a protein goal and sticking to it is a daily win. And that small win to start your day creates momentum. So you might just keep on winning and winning and winning.

10. Puts your mind into mindful eating

When you prioritize protein, you naturally pay more attention to what and when you eat.

This awareness can lead to better dietary choices overall.
