Healthy High Protein High Fiber Diet Plan
This healthy high fiber high protein diet plan is the best way for you to lose weight, keep it off and be healthier than ever.
And you can stay on the high protein high fiber diet for the rest of your life – IF you make healthy high fiber protein choices.
Why do you need both high protein and high fiber on a healthy diet plan?
Good muscle mass is essential to healthy fat loss, weight loss and weight maintenance. And if you're on a diet to lose weight, in order to maintain or build muscle you need to get plenty of high quality protein.
And high fiber helps you to feel full, reduces hunger pangs and decreases your risk of constipation, heart disease, diverticulitis and diabetes.
The High Protein High Fiber Diet Plan
To eat a healthy high fiber high protein diet with successful results, you need to pay special attention to what comes along with your protein.
For example, a 6-oz serving of beefsteak with 38 grams of protein can also have 45 grams of unhealthy fat. Whereas a 6-oz serving of omega 3 salmon has 34 grams of protein along with 18 grams of healthy fat.
And one cup of lentils with 18 grams of protein has next to no fat at all.
Here's the recommended MINIMUM daily intake of protein in grams.
Age Protein
WOMEN
18-24 years 43-46 grams
25-50 years 44-50 grams
50 + years 47-50 grams
Pregnant Any age 56-67 grams
Lactating Any age 56-65 grams
MEN
18-24 years 56-59 grams
25-50 years 56-63 grams
51 + years 54-63 grams
Based on US, Canada, UK and Institute of Medicine recommendations.
To calculate for healthy HIGH protein intake, divide your ideal weight in half. That number is your high protein grams. So a woman with an ideal weight of 140-lbs could shoot for around 70 grams of protein a day.
But can't you get too much protein?
Current studies show that high protein diets that include mainly healthy fats and plenty of high fiber foods produce healthy results. The exceptions are diabetics and people with kidney disease who need less protein.
The best animal protein foods are fatty fish, low-fat dairy and lean poultry. But plant protein, from beans, nuts and whole grains are also excellent and come packaged with vitamins, minerals and healthy high fiber.
Here are daily fiber recommendations for a HIGH fiber protein diet.
Ages 18-50 Years Ages 50 + Years
WOMEN 30-35 grams 25-35 grams
MEN 18-50 Years Ages 50 + Years
35-40 grams 30-40 grams
On a healthy high protein fiber diet plan it's vitally important to eat only healthy fats. Besides the nutritional reasons, all fat is high in calories.
