In a nutshell:

What Happens To Your Body When You Eat More Protein Second, it helps keep the blood, bones, muscles, hair, and nails healthy. Most people eat enough protein to prevent deficiency. One of its effects on the body is that it helps control weight by reducing appetite and hunger pangs. One reason for this is that protein reduces the level of hunger hormones, ghrelin. So, if you’re thinking of losing weight or fat, swap some of your carbs and fats with protein.

According to a study about overweight men, bumping up protein to 25% of calories reduces cravings by 60% and the desire to snack at night by half. Similarly, a study on overweight adolescent girls revealed that having a high-protein breakfast reduced cravings and late-night snacking. 3. Enhances metabolism and increases fat burning This is thanks to the body using calories to digest and utilizing nutrients in foods. For instance, protein has a way higher thermic effect of 20-35% than 5-15% of fats or carbs. And so, high protein intake can notably boost metabolism and increase the number of calories being burned. One study showed that a high-protein group burned 260 calories more per day compared to a low-protein group. It’s funny how some people still believe that protein, mainly animal protein, is harmful to the bones. For instance, eating more protein improves one’s bone mass as they age. Consuming tons of protein and staying active help prevent bone issues. For this reason, eating enough amounts of protein aids in maintaining your muscle mass. As a matter of fact, several studies have backed that consuming loads of protein can help boost muscle mass and strength. If you’re physically active, doing weight lifting, or building muscle, then you must eat enough protein. Plus, high protein intake can prevent muscle loss, which tends to happen during weight loss. A high-protein diet enhances metabolism and leads to an automatic reduction in calorie intake and cravings. In turn, many people who follow such a diet tend to lose weight almost instantly. A study revealed that overweight women who ate 30% of their calories from protein lost 5 kilos in 12 weeks even without intentionally restricting their diet. In a study about people who are on a calorie-restricted diet, the high-protein group shed 53% more body fat than the normal-protein group consuming the same number of calories. A modest increase in protein consumption can already help with weight maintenance.

But there might be an easy way to lower your blood pressure, and that’s through a higher protein intake. Higher protein intake has been found to lower blood pressure. Furthermore, another study showed that aside from lowering blood pressure, following a high-protein diet also reduces LDL or bad cholesterol and triglycerides. Protein helps the body repair itself after an injury. Protein is necessary for building and repairing not just the muscle, but also the skin and other body tissues. In fact, multiple studies have demonstrated that eating more protein after an injury can help accelerate recovery. Make sure to eat a balanced diet with enough calories and plenty of protein. Eating more protein also gives your immune system a boost. On top of that, proteins help in fighting back against bacteria and other harmful substances in the body. So, if your immune system has taken a hit or you’re getting sick more often recently, then having a high-protein diet can help improve your immune system. This is mostly the reason why it’s better to get the recommended amount of protein and opt for carbs and fats for the rest of your daily calories.
