    It suppresses appetite. 100 calories of protein makes you feel fuller than 100 calories of fat or carbohydrates. This has been chemically proven.

    So for weight control protein is good.

    Studies have shown that a high protein diet has been more effective for weight loss than a high fibre diet.

    It is well known protein is needed for muscle growth.

    Carbs and water are essential for brain function. Protein also helps concentration.

    Fats are important for hormone levels.

    But many protein rich foods include some carbs and fats.

    Try to make vegetables a big source for your carbs. Other carbohydrates in moderation are ok.

    Bernard Hopkins has porridge in the morning. Pasta when he is training . Salads. Some meat e.g. Organic buffalo meat and organic deer meat.

    For meat-eaters chicken and fish are Super Foods.

    ty but i already drink smoothies every day with lots of protein, fruits & veggies and know a great deal about nutrition.

    i'm not sure how you get other than organic buffalo and deer meat though, lol. i will go down to the market and ask for it just to see the look on the butchers face.

    Smoke Crack before your workouts. More effective than Creatine.

    Protein is also basically required to remain alive and the best boxers are alive. Fact.

    I guarantee I still feel hungry and no fuller after eating only 100 calories of protein.

    That's like eating a couple of peanuts.
