HOW TO MAKE COTTAGE CHEESE ICE CREAM

To make cottage cheese ice cream, I used Equip Prime Protein powder which is made from beef and SO delicious!

Unlocking the Benefits of Beef Protein Powder:

In the realm of protein supplementation, beef protein powder has emerged as a noteworthy alternative to traditional sources like whey and plant-based proteins. Derived from hydrolyzed beef, this supplement offers a unique amino acid profile and a host of potential health benefits. Let’s delve into the science-backed advantages of incorporating beef protein powder into your nutrition regimen.

1. Supports Muscle Growth and Recovery

Beef protein powder is rich in essential amino acids, including leucine, which plays a pivotal role in muscle protein synthesis. Studies have demonstrated that beef protein supplementation can lead to significant increases in lean body mass and strength gains, comparable to those achieved with whey protein.

2. Aids in Weight Management

High-protein diets are known to promote satiety, reducing overall calorie intake. Beef protein powder, being low in fat and carbohydrates, can be an effective tool for those aiming to manage their weight. Its thermogenic effect also contributes to increased energy expenditure.

3. Enhances Joint and Bone Health

Unlike some other protein sources, beef protein powder contains collagen and gelatin, which are beneficial for joint and bone health. These components support the integrity of connective tissues, potentially reducing the risk of injuries and joint-related issues.

4. Suitable for Individuals with Dietary Restrictions

For those with lactose intolerance or dairy allergies, beef protein powder offers a hypoallergenic alternative. It is free from common allergens like dairy, soy, and gluten, making it a versatile option for various dietary needs.

5. Rich in Micronutrients

Beef protein powder is not only a source of high-quality protein but also provides essential micronutrients such as iron, zinc, and B vitamins. These nutrients play crucial roles in energy metabolism, immune function, and overall well-being.

Incorporating beef protein powder into your diet can be a game-changer, especially if you’re seeking a nutrient-dense, allergen-friendly protein source. Whether you’re an athlete aiming to enhance performance or someone looking to improve overall health, beef protein powder offers a convenient and effective solution.

My Advice:

• Post-Workout Nutrition: Consume a beef protein shake within 30 minutes after exercise to support muscle recovery.
• Meal Replacement: Use beef protein powder in smoothies or recipes to increase protein intake during meals.
• Dietary Supplementation: For individuals with increased protein needs, such as older adults or those recovering from illness, beef protein powder can help meet nutritional requirements.

Beef protein powder stands out as a versatile and nutrient-rich supplement, offering benefits that extend beyond muscle building. Its unique composition supports various aspects of health, making it a valuable addition to diverse dietary plans. As with any supplement, it’s essential to choose high-quality products and consult with healthcare professionals to ensure it aligns with your individual health goals.

TESTIMONY OF THE DAY

“8 years ago today, I chose to make one of the healthiest and profoundly impactful decisions of my life. 

I chose to turn my back on sugar and grains and pursue a healthy ketogenic way of eating.  I soon found amazing mentors in Maria Wojcik Emmerich and Craig Emmerich who truly have researched health and nutrition far more than any doctor or in the box nutritionist. (Seriously, they deserve some letters after their names!)

When you see someone overweight, it’s not always because of overeating and/or lack of exercise.  

I was sick. Lyme disease, heavy metals, mold toxicity, Epstein-Barr, low thyroid to name a few. 

I beat myself up for so many years for not being able to lose weight.  So many doctors told me all the fatigue and health issues I was complaining about were all in my head. 

I was not diagnosed with all of the above until I was in my 40s. It’s so painful to feel like it’s all your fault and that you have no recourse.  It even led me to have a gall bladder surgery that I didn’t even need. 

I finally had a conversation with a functional medicine doctor who said that my body was trying protect me by holding on to the weight and that because I had non-alcoholic fatty liver disease from eating a standard American diet as well as all the health issues, it was really hard for my body to release the weight especially with all the inflammation.  Your liver is your body’s main detox organ, and when it’s overburdened by toxins or inflammation, it also struggles to regulate blood sugar and burn fat effectively.

No wonder I felt terrible and couldn’t lose weight. 

I discovered there was one thing that I could control and that was what I ate. I started researching ketogenic eating as a way to get rid of the inflammation which would then allow me to lose weight and in turn greatly impact my health positively. 

It went slow at first because the inflammation was tough to reverse. But in time, I started noticing so much difference in the way I felt.

Months later, I had more blood work and it showed that I had completely reversed the non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. That’s pretty powerful to do simply with food. 

So many people say that they don’t want to miss out on eating the “good stuff”.  I maintain that your health is the true good stuff. 

I never feel deprived as there are so many alternatives for occasional treats. What’s most important though is that your cravings go away and your tastes change, so you don’t feel like your missing out on anything.  

I even make amazing bread from a recipe from my friend Maria. The primary ingredient is egg whites,  yet it looks and acts just like bread after it’s baked.

The impact this way of eating has had on my health is so far reaching, that I can never imagine eating any differently.

I share the bread recipe and many other recipes both from me and my friend Maria in my Keto Breakthrough group.

I have since found some incredible supplements that have taken my health journey so much further. I’ve shared them with so many people who’ve had amazing turnarounds in many areas of health.” Melissa
