Along those lines, protein-rich foods with amino acids build tissues in the body that are important for bone health, she adds, especially in a person’s older years. Top Protein-Packed Foods
A high-protein diet can make it easier to lose weight sustainably. BI's fitness reporter Rachel Hosie uses her "4/5" rule to eat enough protein without tracking food.
One study showed that eating more protein (about 1.2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight) can help maintain muscle mass and prevent muscle loss in older adults.
The concept of "protein-sparing modified fast" (PSMF) was described by George Blackburn in the early 1970s as an intensive weight-loss diet designed to mitigate the harms associated with protein-calorie malnutrition [8] and nitrogen losses induced by either acute illness or hypocaloric diets in patients with obesity, in order to adapt the patient's metabolism sufficiently to use endogenous fat ...
A high-protein diet is a diet in which 20% or more of the total daily calories come from protein. [1] Many high protein diets are high in saturated fat and restrict intake of carbohydrates. [1] Example foods in a high-protein diet include lean beef, chicken or poultry, pork, salmon and tuna, eggs, and soy. [2]

Packaged foods that provide 20% or more of the daily value for protein are considered high in protein, and while everyone’s protein needs vary depending on their individual body composition and ...
According to D.S.

[3] Protein turnover is believed to decrease with age in all senescent organisms ...
