What are you made of?
We have often heard the expression ‘you are what you eat’, but have you ever thought about what it really means?
The foods we eat are the building blocks of our bodies – everything from skin and hair to muscles and bones and protein is one of the most important nutrients in our foods. Protein is used almost everywhere in the body and is essential if you want to look and feel good.
People who don’t eat enough protein can find themselves feeling tired and run down, with nails that break easily and skin that’s not as good as it could be.
Taking care to include enough protein in your day-to-day diet can make a real difference to how you look and feel.
Protein for healthy hair and nails
Hair and nails are particularly vulnerable to a diet that’s low in protein. Keratin is a key protein needed for strong nails and for healthy hair that doesn’t break easily.
Your body makes keratin from the protein you eat and you can find protein in foods like chicken, fish, beans and lentils.
