High-protein shakes and smoothies are pretty much the perfect on-the-go breakfast: Fast, easy, and portable. Maybe most importantly, kicking your day off with a nice boost of protein means your tummy won’t be rumbling hours before lunchtime rolls around.
“Many people fall short on protein at breakfast,” Alissa Rumsey, M.S., R.D., tells SELF. “Protein helps with satiety so you stay full for longer, and research shows that it is better to spread your protein intake evenly throughout the day, rather than having protein be the focus of just one large meal.” In other words, protein isn’t just for lunch or dinner—try to get at least 15 to 20 grams in your first meal of the day, Rumsey recommends.
