Protein 101

Protein.. ahh probably not the most interesting of subjects to many people.  For me?  My favourite!  It is a very complex topic but I think that it's something everyone should know.  Okay.. well.. the basics.

My goal here is to relay my knowledge of nutrition mixed with a bit of science.   This post is more for those who are like myself.  The ones that always ask why?! and how?! The ones that are obsessed with nutrition and wonder how does it all work in my body?!  

Check out this infographic I made to explain how protein is made in the body.  

For those nerds like me who want to know more, I want to get more into the science of things.  Here I will teach you about the basics for protein, carbohydrates and fats - the macro nutrients and then onto the vitamins and minerals - the micro nutrients. Stay tuned!!

Let me know if there is a topic that you want to know more about.
