Arnold Schwarzenegger is always particular about diet when it comes to fitness. He has given millions of pieces of information now in his newsletter called Arnold’s Pump Club. He always gives wisdom about various things to his “village” dwellers, and recently the Austrian Oak talked about adding protein to breakfast. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and according to the seven-time Mr. Olympia champion, adding protein to breakfast can help improve the appetite.

He spoke about the diet domino effect by adding protein to the food, which can help in controlling the appetite and improving food choices. Let’s see what else he had to say about adding protein to the breakfast.

The former Governor started the newsletter by talking about how breakfast was the first meal of the day and what a person ate for the first meal to “set you up for success the rest of the day.” The bodybuilding legend showed substantial research evidence to prove that adding protein to breakfast can cause a domino effect.

The Austrian Oak has previously spoken about incorporating protein into the daily diet and even used a popular meme from the Simpsons family stating that protein is only for bodybuilders. In this latest newsletter, he addressed crucial information: eating a higher-protein breakfast will help reduce the calorie-loaded food that people eat for the rest of the day.

He also mentioned the fact that protein is definitely “not a cure-all,” but research has suggested that even a moderate amount of protein is associated with muscle gain and fat loss paired with bone health, longevity, and control of appetite.

The Austrian Oak went on to say that if people were looking for a way to add protein to their breakfast, numerous options were both affordable and available. He also spoke of Magic Spoon, which “recreates your favorite childhood flavors with less sugar and 13 grams of protein per serving.” He is always encouraging people to add more protein to their diet and also breaks the myth that this ingredient is only important for bodybuilders.

Protein makes you bulky.”.

As always, he also showed substantial evidence as to why protein consumption benefited health. It not only helps people lose weight but also increases blood glucose control and blood repeat profiles. So ultimately, protein is not just for bodybuilders but for every living being, and he justified it with proper research.
