For the human body, whether you want to lose fat or gain muscle, it is very important to ensure the intake of protein. A medium-sized egg can provide about 6 grams of high-quality protein, which is the highest content of protein in various foods.
An egg contains about 7 grams of protein, that is to say, adult men and women can fully meet the demand for protein one day by eating 9 eggs and 8 eggs respectively without eating other protein. For the fitness crowd, we can estimate the total amount of protein needed in a day according to the weight of 2g protein per kilogram. For example, a bodybuilder of 70kg needs to consume 140g protein every day. If protein is all from eggs, he needs to eat 20 eggs a day.
Extended data:
The diet formula of bodybuilders is: moderate protein, low fat and high carbohydrate. The ratio of the three main nutrients should be about 25∶20∶55.
Steamed bread, noodles, rice and other staple foods and sweet potatoes, oats, potatoes and other carbohydrates are high in content, which can be used as the first choice.
Protein is the most important source of nutrition for muscle growth. Protein, a bodybuilder, should mainly eat fat-free or low-fat foods, such as skim milk, egg white, fish, skinless poultry and steak.
Fatty acids that are needed to maintain normal human growth but cannot be synthesized in the body are called essential fatty acids, which are mostly found in olive oil, corn oil and soybean oil. Moderate intake can not only meet the needs of the body, but also will not increase the incidence of cardiovascular diseases.
