5 Health Benefits of Eating Plant-Based Protein

I have become quite interested in plant-based protein. Since I have started using a powder, I have been doing research to find the many benefits. The more I find, the more I have been drinking my plant-based protein shakes. As I get older, I realize that I can't eat the way I used to eat because of the health consequences.

In order to live a healthier lifestyle, I had to make some changes. I decided to eat more fruits and vegetables and less meats.When I do eat meats I look for leaner meats. Here are 5 benefits of eating plant-based proteins.

1. They are high in fiber, meaning they will help you stay full longer as well as move food through your digestive system.
2. They can help to boost metabolism, especially if you increase the protein intake.
3. They can help to balance the bodies PH.
4. They also contain fats that can help you with weight loss.
5. They help to decrease LDL or bad cholesterol levels.

Of course there are other benefits. If you are interested in loosing weight and lowering your cholesterol, then these are just a few of the benefits. There are studies that show that people who eat more plant-based proteins, are healthier and tend to have lower body weight.

A plant-based diet or protein powder can be just what you need to make positive changes in your life. As a cancer survivor, I now realized the importance of plant-based foods in my life. If you are suffering from high cholesterol or high blood pressure, then maybe this could be your answer.
