Are dairy products helpful or harmful
for losing weight? what should you look for when deciding
which dairy foods to eat?
3 TIPS
Choosing dairy products
The Dr will also reveal the number one
mistake that you could be making with dairy products
Dr Andreas CEO of diet
doctor and today will be talking about
the best high protein dairy for weight loss.
1-Choose dairy product with a high protein percentage
protein is an important nutrient that your body needs to maintain muscle and
bone health among other functions
getting plenty of protein also helps you
feel fuller for longer can boost your metabolism and improve your body
composition dairy products can be a healthy part of weight loss
the key is to choose dairy foods that
have a high protein percentage this percentage tells you how much of
the foods calories come from protein rather than fats and carbohydrates
in other words a foods protein percentage tells you how much protein
you will get per calorie when choosing dairy products go for
those with protein percentages of 35 or more most of the time
for reference plain greek yogurt is an excellent choice it’s protein percentage
ranges from 34 to 77.
depending on which type you choose by contrast sugar sweetened full fat
yogurts are only 18 protein which is not as good if you want to lose weight my
second tip is to make plain yogurt and cottage cheese your go-to dairy products
as i mentioned before greek yogurt is a solid choice for weight loss its protein
percentage differs depending on its fat content for example plain non-fat greek
yogurt has an impressive protein
Not a fan of yogurt …regular cottage cheese is also an excellent choice with a protein
what do these dairy products have in common they are well above 35 protein and this means they provide a lot of protein per calorie and will keep you satisfied and feeling full for longer.
Don’t do non-fat low-fat or reduced fat options have a higher protein percentage
well when a food contains less fat more of its calories come from protein
therefore it has a higher protein percentage but feel free to choose full-fat varieties if you prefer. especially if you have no desire to lose
extra weight
2-The second tip is to enjoy cheese in moderation
why is that?
if you want to achieve weight loss there
are certain dairy products that you
should eat less often cheese for example
is considered a delicious source of both
protein and calcium however its protein
percentage is usually low because it’s
high in both fat and calories so
you’ll want to enjoy
most cheeses in moderation
which may be challenging for some people
for this reason it’s important to know
ahead of time whether cheese is a
trigger food that you find difficult to
eat in small amounts.
3-Third tip Milk is another dairy product to be
careful with it is the origin of all
dairy products so you might wonder
why it should be consumed less
and the reason is that milk contains a
large amount of lactose or milk sugar which dilutes its protein content and
lowers its protein percentage from an evolutionary perspective milk is
designed to promote growth in infants and children it’s not designed for
weight loss
