Whey protein is not only superior to soy for trimming down, but may help maintain or even promote weight loss regardless of intake of calories.

Protein has long been associated with increased satiety, thereby improving weight loss and promoting adherence to difficult, otherwise hunger-inducing diets. While protein may keep you fuller longer, a new study in the July issue of The Journal of Nutrition, showed that whey protein is more effective than soy protein when it comes to weight loss.

As found in this study, macronutrient (protein, carbohydrate or fat) choices can make an impact on body composition. Not only is protein thought to be satiating and thermogenic, whey protein consumption without calorie restriction had a favorable impact on body weight. The researchers emphasize that in the WP supplementation group “the difference in body weight was associated with a decrease in fat without an effect on lean mass.”

The authors write that protein is key to short-term weight loss because it reduces the urge to overeat and that the impact of whey protein on body weight without calorie restriction or the intention to lose weight is novel.

“Protein supplementation, particularly WP, in overweight and obese individuals may assist in long-term maintenance of body weight without energy restriction,” the researchers suggest.

It starts as a gentle subliminal nudge.  “chocolate…”  Within minutes, it grows into an insistent  full body urge.  “Chocolate.  Chocolate.  CHOCOLATE!”  You can’t (and in my opinion, shouldn’t) ignore it.  You have a full blown chocolate craving.

It is said that people crave chocolate more than any other food.  In the U.S., the typical person eats 11.5 pounds of chocolate a year.  Why is chocolate craved more than any other food?  Sure – it tastes good, has a silky smooth texture and melts in your mouth…but is there more to it?  The question is, are chocolate cravings in the body (physiological) or in the heart (psychological)?  There are a wide variety of arguments as to why people have chocolate cravings.

Some think certain compounds in chocolate may be physiologically addictive, activating mood-lifting chemicals in the brain (serotonin, dopamine).  However, tests have shown that most mood-altering agents in chocolate are broken down before they reach the bloodstream.  Others insist that deficiencies in minerals (such as magnesium, iron) cause people to desire chocolate. 

Long story short, when it comes to pinning down the reasons for chocolate cravings, research is pretty inconclusive.  But do we really need to know the why?  Shouldn’t we be focusing our mental energies on how to best satisfy those chocolate urges?  I’m off to grab on Isa-Delight.  I suggest you do the same.

Nutritional Cleansing is not the same as colon cleansing, which is based on using fiber or laxatives to shed gunk and foreign substances from your colon. Instead, Nutritional Cleansing involves using nutrition to help your body perform at its best by ridding it of harmful substances naturally.

The Isagenix Nutritional Cleansing systems use natural ingredients to assist your liver and cells in ridding the body of harmful chemicals to help you feel healthier and more energized.

Unlike some one-hit wonder juices that use a single berry as their main ingredient , Cleanse for Life uses a combination of ingredients and nutrients to support the body’s natural cleansing process.

Every day our bodies ingest all different kinds of chemicals, toxins and impurities. Not only that, but our bodies are also constantly giving off what are known as free radicals that attack your body’s cells. These free radicals can happen as a result of environmental challenges such as pollution or even your normal metabolism and exercise. Nutritional Cleansing helps rid your body of these toxins, while at the same time flooding your system with antioxidants — free radicals’ worst nightmare.

Besides helping you lose weight and rid your body of toxins, Cleanse for Life can help you experience increased energy, feel more alert and focused during the day and also help improve your mental and physical performance!
