Whether you are doing a low carbohydrate diet to lose weight or are trying to build major muscle - a good high performing, lean protein source is beneficial. If you are doing an Atkin's style diet or the new French method, the Dukan Diet - additional protein is exactly what you need.
What are some good sources of lean protein? Chicken, and fish are generally your lean protein choices. Both of these are great options but do require some preparation time so aren't always the best choices when you are on the go and have a very busy schedule. Besides, sometimes chicken and fish get boring, even if you happen to have time to be creative with various preparations. Still, adequate protein is essential in your quest to lose weight and build lean muscle. You can also get protein from lean cold cuts but you need to pay attention to additional preservatives and ingredients in the cold cuts you buy.

You have probably considered or tried various protein powders. Whey powder and soy protein powder are some popular protein powder choices. These are both good and easy to use sources of protein. Have you tried Hemp protein powder? This vegetarian natural protein source is about 50% protein and has tons of nutritional and health benefits. It also has an earthy, delicious flavor that is excellent in shakes, smoothies, salad dressings, sauces and more. You can find more detailed info about Hemp Protein Powder on my site.
However, if you are looking for the absolute best, purest form of protein - look no further than liquid egg whites. Egg whites are very low in calories, have no fat, no cholesterol and are the best source of lean protein for building muscle and burning fat. This makes them a great addition to your weight loss regiment. Because cooking the eggs kills some of the nutrients, uncooked egg whites are a fantastic option to get the maximum nutrients and protein from them.
As it isn't a good idea to down raw egg whites from the egg carton for safety reasons (think salmonella)- you should consider getting pasteurized all natural 100% pure liquid egg whites. These egg whites are kosher, guaranteed safe, 100% bio-available for optimum absorption and more. Liquid egg whites have been a body builders' secret for years and are the best way to build lean muscle literally in your sleep.
By drinking a mix of these liquid egg whites and any mixer of your choice including sugar-free sweeteners or chocolate before bed, you get your body in a muscle building, fat burning mode. This helps you to lose weight faster. Instead of running out of protein as your body usually does in the middle of the night, your body has the fuel to continue burning fat and working for you while you sleep.
Pure liquid egg whites have no taste and are odorless so they can take on the flavor of anything you add to them and they have a super smooth texture that you can whip, drink straight or cook up as scrambled eggs with herbs, quiche or anything else you like.
You don't have to worry about your liquid egg whites going bad - they stay good in the refrigerator for 3-4 months and stay good in the freezer basically forever.
Get ready to start building lean muscle, burning fat, and losing weight by making pure liquid egg whites part of your daily routine.
