Almost every nutrition consultation we do reveals a protein intake that is much too low. Most people are downright shocked when we suggest how much protein they should consume. Remember, the human body is designed to consume “high” amounts of quality protein.
When people increase protein intake, they generally see;
· fat loss
· increased energy levels
· more stable blood sugar
· improved mood
· better sleep
· quicker recovery after workouts
· increased metabolic rate
The problem for most people is that consuming protein is inconvenient. After all, we are mostly talking about meat as a protein source. If this is an issue for you, consider a high quality protein supplement. We currently recommend Sun Warrior Protein as our preferred brand. We shy away from brands that use artificial sweeteners as they are linked with a variety of health issues.
Sun Warrior is available in Natural, Vanilla and Chocolate Flavors for $65 per bag through Live in Motion.

How far does a bag go? Or should I say what's the recommended daily intake and what size is the bag,
Mark R. :)
Hi Mark - thanks for your interest. The Sun Warrior is a great product which absorbs extremely well so requires less intake than many inferior products.
A bag of protein is 2.2 pounds. Each 21g scoop contains 16g of high quality protein. We recommend a daily intake of anywhere from 1-4 scoops depending on the individual, workout intensity and current nutritional regime.
