The best protein sources are lean meats, chicken breast, tuna, salmon, eggs, milk and vegetables. Of course, you can opt for an occasional protein shake if you feel your intake is low.
Good luck.

Vary your source of proteins throughout the day. Whey has a fantastic amino acid profile, and is absorbed by the body very quickly, which is good and bad: since it gets into your bloodstream so fast, it is a superb source for a post workout meal and for recovery, but it is not good as a steady supply of nutrition for the whole day. Sources such as meat (all kinds), milk and eggs have excellent profiles as well, but are absorbed at a much slower rate. Therefore, they are superior to whey for daylong amino acid delivery. There are some studies that show that soy protein may help reduce the risk of breast cancer, and possibly reduce the symptoms of menopause, but it falls very short of any benefit when it comes to helping your body with training. The biggest thing to remember is watching the fat content while consuming different forms of protein.
Good Luck...............Michael

well the protein is the same EXCEPT the Deli stuff has unknown fillers and preservative. Opt for canned chicken over deli and tuna over ham if you cannot cook it yourself.

Just vary your source of protein intake. Sometimes our bodies will not absorb one type of proteins, but another one yes.

No. However, consuming too much protein without exercising increases stress on your body. The excess protein becomes toxic. The recommended daily allowance is 0.36 grams for every pound of bodyweight. Protein should also make up approximately 15% of your total daily caloric intake, according to the RDA.
One thing to remember, protein alone does not build muscle! Working out, a sound diet and getting plenty of rest builds muscle!
Hope this helps...

Out of the three macronutrients, protein is by far the least likely to be converted into fat. Just remember that an over amount of any excess kcals will convert the extra macros to fat, no matter what their source.
good luck..............Michael
