Need a protein-packed recipe guide for each meal? This is the cookbook you should have on hand

Emma Bardwell, a renowned nutritionist, has recently introduced her new book, "The 30g Plan". The book focuses on the importance of consuming more protein, fibre, and plants for weight loss and overall health.

In her latest work, Bardwell presents a unique eating plan that includes recipes to help individuals achieve their daily protein and fibre targets. One such recipe is for harissa chickpeas with pan-fried salmon (or tofu), which offers a whopping 41g of protein and 12.5g of fibre.

Protein, as Bardwell explains, is crucial for various bodily functions, including weight loss, muscle growth and repair, hormone production, and maintaining blood sugar balance. It's particularly important for those aged 40 and above due to lower levels of enzymes needed to break down protein.

To boost fibre intake, Bardwell recommends three methods. First, she suggests using psyllium husks. Second, she advises swapping white bread for sprouted grain or making cottage cheese bread. Lastly, she encourages the use of alternative pastas like red lentil, yellow pea, edamame, or mung bean pastas.

Fibre, on the other hand, plays a significant role in promoting satiety, reducing the risk of heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and some cancers, and promoting bowel movements and feeding good gut bacteria.

Bardwell also offers five ways to add protein to a meal. These include protein powder, chicken breast, smoked salmon, eggs whites, and edamame beans. By incorporating these protein sources into meals, individuals can ensure they meet their daily protein requirements.

The key to weight loss, according to Bardwell, is following the formula of eating 30g of protein at each meal, 30g of fibre per day, eating 30 or more plants per week, and being in a calorie deficit.

While the author of "The 30g Plan" was not mentioned in the provided search results, Bardwell's expertise and the success of her previous works suggest that this new book is a must-read for anyone seeking to improve their health and weight through diet.
