Namaste! I’m Dietician Shreya Oza, and today I want to share one of the most trending and practical diet tips for Indians—Protein Timing.
We all know dal, paneer, curd, and chana are our kitchen staples. But do you know when you eat these proteins can make a big difference in your weight loss, energy levels, and overall health?
🍲 What Is Protein Timing?
Protein timing means focusing not just on how much protein you eat, but when you eat it during the day.
-
A good protein-rich breakfast can keep you full till lunch.
-
Adding dal, sprouts, or paneer at lunch keeps your energy steady.
-
A post-walk or gym snack like roasted chana, curd with seeds, or a small protein shake helps your body recover.
-
Light protein at dinner (like moong dal khichdi or palak paneer) prevents late-night hunger pangs.
🌟 Why Is Everyone Talking About It?
✔️ Controls cravings – No more evening samosa or biscuit binge!
✔️ Supports weight loss – Burns fat but protects lean muscle.
✔️ Boosts metabolism – Your body works harder to digest protein, giving you a natural calorie burn.
✔️ Keeps you active – No mid-day sleepiness after lunch.
