(All source of information is quoted directly from Muscle & Body March 2014 magazine, Kim Lyons)

“No other macronutrient has as strong of an influence on your metabolism as protein. Protein is highly thermogenic, which means it produces heat through metabolic stimulation. Approximately 25% of protein calories are used for the digestion process. “Kim Lyons –whose information is used here from the Muscle & Body magazine, recommends getting at least 1 g of protein per pound of lead body mass. “ If you do not know your lean body mass, you can eat .6 to .8 g per pound of body weight.”
