Many people are drastically under-eating protein, despite it being the key macronutrient for optimal body composition. It’s high thermic effect help boost our metabolisms, making us look better, building lean muscle tissue and reducing body fat.
Over the years a high protein diet has taken the headlines for being unhealthy, 31 but research never holds up. It is our job to educate clients on the importance of having a high protein diet, and the actual benefits from doing so.
The easiest and simplest method to achieve this is by following the guideline of ‘eat protein at every meal’.
If you want to take this one step further, you can recommend 2 palm sized portions of protein (both width and thickness) per meal (half this for females).
This instantly boosts protein intake and monitors portion control without suggesting a single number. A typical serving of protein from a palm sized lean meat will give approx. 15-20g protein. Therefore 2 servings will give approx. 30-40g protein, which is an ideal amount of protein to be consuming per meal

IsaLean is a full meal replacement—not a “snack,” providing optimal support for nutritional cleansing and replenishing, weight loss and weight maintenance, as well as peak performance. While low in saturated fat, sodium and cholesterol, IsaLean® Shake provides the right balance of protein, carbohydrates, healthy poly- and mono-unsaturated fats, dietary fiber, vitamins and minerals (including calcium, vitamin C, vitamin B12, and vitamin D).
Plus, you get active digestive enzymes that help maximize absorption of key nutrients. Many products touted as “meal replacements” don’t deliver adequate nutrition to do the job of replacing a meal. Plus, most don’t have the right amount of protein to prevent the muscle loss that often accompanies weight loss. IsaLean Shakes need only to be blended with water for a satisfying meal replacement while many others require being mixed with milk in order to even come close to being a proper meal replacement. IsaLean Shake delivers 24 grams of protein. Some shakes deliver about half of that. Studies show that about 20 grams of protein is the ideal amount for triggering muscle protein synthesis and is dependent on the amount of branched-chain amino acids that whey protein naturally has the highest amount of. This is not the case with soy protein isolate, the protein source for many other shakes on the market. IsaLean Shake is truly the meal replacement of choice for losing weight while maintaining and building muscle.

No artificial ingredients. Many other products available use artificial sweeteners, flavors, and/or coloring. Isagenix uses none of these. Isagenix only uses high-quality protein from dairy cows that are not given artificial hormones or routine antibiotics. Their fresh milk is guided through a series of fine filters under low heat to separate whey from other dairy components such as fats and lactose.
This gentle system uses no acids, keeping the protein in a natural state, undenatured as it should be. Moreover, our Quality Assurance Team inspects all ingredients to test potency, amino acid profile, as well as the presence of microbial content, pesticides and heavy metals to ensure the purest product possible.Ionic Alfalfa™. IsaLean Shake also contains Ionic Alfalfa, our proprietary blend of plant-derived minerals that provide additional nutrients for the body. IsaLean Shake retails at around $3.71 per meal, its cost is $2.85 at the Associate and Preferred Customer Price. Be wary of cost comparisons used by competitors who sell shakes that are actually artificially laden soy protein snacks and try to compare to full meal replacements. And don’t forget, water is free; many of the competitors require milk to be a suitable meal replacement.

Nutrition for Athletes: Bottom LineBy Michael Colgan, Ph.D.
Your blood cells replace themselves every three to four months. Your muscle cells replace themselves about every six months. Brain cells can take a year or more to replace themselves.Right when each of these types of cells are formed, they use the nutrition the person is giving their body at that time. In other words, the cells are limited in function for their whole lifetime by the nutrition they receive when they are formed. If you eat garbage proteins, you cannot help but grow a garbage body. And you are stuck with that body for the next six months. Maximizing athletic performance with nutrition and proper nutrition timing.
