The *Easy* Way To Eat 100+ Grams Protein EVERY DAY

[@mycatoverlords]

Autumn, thanks for all your videos. I am a degree qualified nutritional therapist in the UK specialising in genetic nutrition. I’d love to recommend that you have a look at the more up to date research around optimal protein intake. Aim to get at least 1g protein per pound of ideal/target body weight. Most people would do well aiming for 150g protein per day if we need to give a generalised recommendation. For those reading this comment, this is nutritionally easy to do-for example: 1 chicken breast, 3 eggs, 300g Greek yoghurt, 200g beef.

[@beaghmne2369]

Thanks for this!

[@hissykittycat]

True but in America where people eat about 200-300 g of carb a day and maybe only about 50 g or less of protein, 100 g is a good starter goal.

[@SpeedNoodles]

Good grief, I'd be cooking and eating all damn day. This all sucks so bad.

This diet with high quality protein is so important as you age! I’m 75 and finding the high quality protein diet has really improved my life. I don’t eat processed food, sugar or alcohol.. and very little carbs. I eat this way for strength and health.. not weight loss. My energy is fantastic and I’m working daily to keep and build muscle. I go yearly for bloodwork and so far, perfect…zero meds too. I do find the serving sizes daunting at times. (I’m 5’4” and 114lbs) But I find a pleasant place to sit and eat slowly… and it’s gone eventually!😂…I know I need the fuel and nutrition. Before I started this 2 years ago I never ate enough and I felt fine.. but not great. Now it’s remarkable the difference. Thanks for these ideas!! I love them and will be adding to my rotation.

This is good to know, I’m 67 and need to lose 45 lbs of stubborn menopausal weight. Most food plans or diets don’t consider the post menopausal woman. Thank you!

[@softblackkitten]

@@karenproietti8696 Hi, Karen. I'm 74 decided last year to overhaul my fading mental and physical health. No meds, borderline test results. I'm 3 days short of my one year goal. My improvement is remarkable, but I think I will ALWAYS be a work in progress. I'm more attuned to my body and it does talk trash to me when I mess up. Have you made note of the hi-quality recipes you may already know? Watch sharing with the girlfriends, your improvements may make them uncomfortable. Hope this helps. I know that you can do it. Proud of you already.

[@softblackkitten]

I experienced calorie overload from trying to eat more protein at first. Fried pork belly was heaven, I gained 4 lbs. in a week. I food journal, it helps me quantify and make better decisions. I'm more stable and slowly losing fat by eating leaner versions whenever possible, doing more prep. helps me make better decisions when hungry. Doing the prep work when not hungry is fun, I practice my knife skills. The glass storage containers look so pretty in the frig with all the colorful vegetables: cherry tomatoes, purple cabbage, carrots, mushrooms, peppers, scallions, etc..

Hi Autumn. I am 67 years old and have thyroid issues since age 26. Been overweight all this time. My specialist said to eat high protein, high fiber which I am doing. Then I plateaued afyer about 8 lb loss. Then I gained it all back so this has been a lifetime of trying to figure out what works for MY metabolism. I finally broke the insulin resistance recently and I also found some special recipes that keep me full and I lost 5 lbs in ten days. I made a chicken soup with veggies of all kinds and added lentils and barley and wow. It’s keeps you feeling full and for supper I have my favorite banana, blueberries and yogurt bowl!! For supper!! I cannot believe I am losing weight for the FIRST time feeling full as I progress. I subscribed to your channel becuz you have wonderful recipes. Thanks. I am hoping for. 70 lb weight loss and the more I see results the more dedicated I feel. Thanks so much!!❤

This is great but I'm lactose intolerant. 😢 Can you do an episode like this for dairy challenged peeps. Your channel is great. Thank you.

[@susannmarie1]

Yes please, I would appreciate dairy free high protein ideas. Recently I discovered that dairy products are wrecking havoc with my gut. Now it's harder for me to get a healthy amount of protein in a day. Thank you.

[@MM-pb6qh]

I was extremely lactose intolerant years ago, couldn't even eat pizza! After eliminating lactose from my diet and/or using the lact-aid pills or lactose free milk, I slowly started to test the waters by introducing yogurt and some cheese. Now, it's only milk or cream that reeks havoc on my gut. I simply avoid it an buy lactose reduced or lactose free milk. When it comes to lactose intolerance, we're all different...you just have to experiment. I hope this helps.

[@pamcotterman7073]

And for some people it’s the ‘casein’ (milk protein) and not the ‘lactose’ (milk sugar), that cause gut issues. And that is me ☹️ Dairy is a problem for so many folks, unfortunately.

[@hanajaci]

Ever since I started watching your videos, I am more mindful about having enough protein in each meal. It has helped me feel full longer. My favorite recipe is cottage cheese or Greek yogurt with frozen berries and chia seeds heated up until jam-like texture. It’s one of my staple meals now. Thank you, Autumn🫶

[@CateBeauman]

These are great options unless you're allergic to milk/can't have dairy products. It's frustrating that so many dairy-free options have SO little protein and are mostly made of highly processed garbage. I eat 130 g of protein a day, but it's a bit more of a challenge when dairy isn't something I can consume. Nuts/beans are great but the calorie count/carb count also poses a bit of a challenge when trying to stay lean.

[@AutumnBates]

Still lots of other great options you can use! Eggs, beef, lamb, turkey, chicken, salmon, tuna, pork, shrimp, etc

[@caririvers8544]

Same! I need more ideas for dairy free protein sources!

[@CateBeauman]

@@caririvers8544 Siggi's has a yogurt alternative that's really tasty and has 10g of protein per carton (I find them at Whole Foods). It does have a little sugar, which is a bummer, but it's a nice way to get a little protein that isn't all animal food. Also, I use Truvani protein powders. They're expensive but really tasty (choc and vanilla). I add 2T peanut butter powder and a scoop of Ancient Nutrition collagen and have a 36 g protein smoothie after my workout. I do eat animal protein, but it grosses me out to only eat meat, and dairy isn't an option, so those are my go-to's for dairy-free.

[@Sharpieasatack]

Agreed! I use cottage cheese but it does seem to cause breakouts and more redness in my face 😢

[@CateBeauman]

@@Sharpieasatack I gave up dairy five years ago when I realized it was causing my very, very, VERY heavy periods and making my breasts incredibly large, lumpy, and tender (TMI, maybe!). As soon as I stopped consuming any form of dairy, the problems magically went away. If I ever accidentally consume dairy, the heavy period comes back, as do the huge, tender breasts. I'm a big believer that our bodies are constantly talking to us/communicating about what does and doesn't work for it. For me personally, dairy is definitely not worth it.

Fairlife Milk - filtered - lactose free - 13 grams protein per 8 oz of milk.

[@Rigbycat123]

To we metric users. Look on the nutrition label of the product. See how much protein is contained in 100gms of the product. Eg- hope this correct. Autumn? 🤞🤞🤞 The cottage cheese product I have says for every 100gms = there is 12gms of protein. So how much do I need to eat to get 30gms protein? 30/12=2.5 so I’d need 100(gms) x 2.5 =250gms I’d need to eat 250gms of cottage cheese to reach 30gms of protein. Clears as mud? Hahaha But always use the nutrition panel to calculate the protein. Not just the weight. I asked little Miss Brainiac Autumn the same Question a while back. 👍💖

Percent protein in food by weight is easiest concept to determine food cost per gram protein and which food contributes how much protein in a meal. Protein content of common foods: Meat 23%, nuts seeds 23% except walnuts 16%, etc. 1 ounce = 28 grams. 1 ounce meat weighs 28 grams times .23 = 6.4 grams protein per ounce. Same for nuts and seeds. Most hard cheese has 8 grams protein per oz. Cooked beans 16 grams protein per cooked cup except soy 32 grams.

Hi Autum, I’m hoping you see this comment! so I have quite a few things going on first of all at this moment I am not able to work out and have not been able to for a couple of years. Reason being, I found out that I have severe osteoporosis. I found out because I was diagnosed with a compression fracture in my T9 and 21 I was told in August 1922 that my fracture had healed. However, the pain that I had when the fracture occurred continued and also radiated around to my left side near my rib cage walking more than 10 minutes would increase my pain to 10+ because of this inactivity I have gained 10 pounds. I’m trying desperately to try to drop that 10 pounds actually 15 would be more desirable. Unfortunately, a week and a half ago I was diagnosed with another compression fracture, and the first fracture did not completely heal. I have tried desperately to research nutrition to help me to help my bones become somewhat stronger. I have been told by my endocrinologist that I can only hope to increase the bone strength a little at this point. I know that protein is extremely important in my diet. I have also been told that my LDL cholesterol is a little high so my concern with eating full fat Greek yogurt worries me. My husband has been helping me make your homemade Greek yogurt for several months now and I really love it, but I am considering to switch to making a nonfat. Otherwise, I eat relatively healthy. I know that I am not getting 90 g of protein days. My medication that I take for pain management takes away my appetite. I am a hot mess and I would appreciate any insight that you could share with me.

Small cottage cheese with avocado with seed/chopped nut; bag celery, carrot sticks, cherry tomatoes your fav veggies on the side, I like to add a little seasoning; or couple nut butter crackers.

I recently moved to Thailand so protein powder is not readily available as in Australia. I recently saw some smoothie recipes using beans. Do you think this is a good option? Thanks in advance as I really value your opinion.

I’ve heard that you shouldn’t eat a lot of beef because it causes heart diseases. Can you do a video on this.

[@AutumnBates]

I’ve done a video on this! You can find it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aqm1lnZ8qKupqNUsi=gBipAods7N3EmNCo

Does anyone with diabetes or prediabetic like me, recommend a good protein powder that has stevia that tastes good. I feel like I am not getting all the protein I need. I try different things. My problem is that I eat twice a day because I wear Invisalign braces and therefore have to brush and floss after eating. I’m trying to avoid having to do it 3 times a day. Protein powder may help me with that. Thanks!!!

UK department of health doesn’t recommend eating too much red meat. Big cause of bowel cancer. Plus isn’t beef is USA all from those horrid beef farms? Where the animals just eat all day.I think we need to see more plant based options and save the planet.

I dont eat eggs or avocado, are there ant other substitutions that I can use?

[@terrinutting7337]

I’m so confused… your calculations state I shouldn’t eat more than 60?
