Kelowna Ideal Protein Weight Loss Program - Retaining Your Muscles

 

I’d like to introduce you to Paradigm Health Weight Loss Clinic. We at Paradigm feel fortunate that since starting our business we have been able to help over 300 clients lose weight, get healthy and feel good about themselves. The program was developed in France over 25 years ago by a Sports Medicine Physician, Dr. Tran Chanh. He was looking for a way to help his athletes lose weight quickly without sacrificing their muscle mass.

It is vitally important to spare muscle mass when you are on a weight loss program for a few reasons. Healthy muscles let you move freely and keep your body strong. They help with joint health. Having strong muscles around your joints helps prevent injury. They help you keep your balance so you are less likely to slip and fall. We generally think about the muscle we can see but we use muscle to help with digestion, pumping blood and to support organs.

Most importantly the more muscle you spare while dieting the more likely you will keep the weight off! Did you know that the more muscle you have the higher your metabolism is when you are resting? One pound of muscle requires approximately 6 calories a day to sustain itself while one pound of fat burns just 2.

The best way to prevent muscle loss is to supply your body with a quality protein product.

 
Take good care of yourself, you deserve the best.
