Liv Fit Ultimate Guide to Protein
Protein is your body’s chief builder, and this course breaks it down from molecule to meal. You’ll explore amino acids, protein structure and function, digestion and metabolism, daily requirements, and the truth about “complete” vs. “incomplete” sources. We’ll compare animal and plant proteins, evaluate quality and digestibility, and practice label-reading to spot real protein versus marketing fluff. Along the way, you’ll translate science into practical choices with simple frameworks, checklists, and quick decision tools.
By the end, you’ll be able to plan balanced meals, hit your protein targets for different goals, and time intake for better energy, recovery, and appetite control. You’ll apply strategies for muscle gain, weight management, healthy aging, vegetarian or allergy-friendly eating, and smart shopping on a budget. We’ll also cover sustainable sourcing, cooking methods that protect quality, and when supplements make sense—and when they don’t. Expect clear, actionable steps you can use at home, in the gym, and at the grocery store.
What you will learn
I started this course by laying a clear, beginner-friendly path from understanding protein to building simple meals, so you never feel lost. Each lesson is short, plain-language, and builds on the last, with checklists and quick wins you can use the same day. I carefully designed the modules with step-by-step guides, templates, and real-world examples to help you calculate your needs, choose affordable sources, and fix common issues like low energy or cravings. The structure is clean—learn, practice, review—keeping everything organized, motivating, and genuinely helpful from your very first lesson.
