Fad diets and eating plans seem to be the norm in the United States. People are confused. They want to look good (meaning thin) and feel good, but they often want the quick fix. There are low-carbohydrate diets, high protein diets, liquid diet supplemental plans, fasting diets, and companies selling prepared meals to be heated in the microwave; and don’t forget all the diet pills. The fact is, these options don’t work otherwise there wouldn’t be so many new ones all the time. What was popular yesterday is out today. With all of this diversity, how does anyone choose?
Throw into this mix, the availability of junk food loaded with fat, calories, and lots of sodium. It may not be good for us, but it’s fast, and most of us no longer feel we have the time to actually prepare meals. In most households all adults need to hold down at least one job, and there are often kids to raise as well. Most working people, including executives, are required to put in more hours than what was once a normal work week. Companies are cutting corners and down-sizing, yet the work still needs to get done. Our high-tech, wired world seems to have complicated rather than simplified our lives. Many folks find it a lot easier to grab some junk or highly processed food. They can eat on the run, take a few minutes to fix an unhealthy meal, or swallow an appetite suppressant. None of these are healthy options.
Even though we’re reminded almost daily by nutritionists, doctors, and even the federal government to eat a minimum of five servings of fruits and vegetables everyday, many of us ignore this good advice. For too many, healthy foods just don’t have the same appeal as the junkier variety. Plus, we tend to forget that many of them don’t even require cooking.
Obesity is on the rise and its killing people. There are more overweight children in the US than anywhere else in the world, and more than at any other time in history. There has to be a nutritional answer to this major problem.
In other parts of the globe, particularly sub-Saharan Africa, millions are starving. Children and adults are dying everyday due to a lack of food. Although, their problem is different, they also need to access nutritious food.
One cutting edge company that’s on the case is Protica Research. Founded in 2001 in Pennsylvania; Protica is devoting its many resources to solving the food dilemma. You can tell a lot by how a business treats its employees. Protica values its human resources and promotes diversity, provides excellent benefits, and uses a team-based structure. Their mission is to create and sell healthy nutrition that travels easily. Their research and development personnel are continually working hard to make this a reality worldwide.
Their most innovative product to date is Profect. It’s convenient, fast, portable, and it’s also healthy. It has no fat and no carbs, but it does have 25 grams of proteins and numerous vitamins. To make it even more enticing, Profect tastes great!
Many of us have seen science fiction movies in which people swallowed pellets of food rather than eating whole meals. Profect isn’t a substitute for every meal, but when you’re on the go it will fill you up, unlike junk food, which just leaves you wanting more. What’s more you’ll be full of nutritious supplements that will keep you going for hours. This phenomenon is part of a new generation of foods known as “capsulized food.”
Protica’s Profect certainly isn’t a pellet; it’s a lot tastier and more fully packed with nutrients than even a giant pellet would be. It is small however, and it packs a real punch. It comes in a container that won’t spill or leak in your briefcase, purse, or pocket, and it holds under three ounces. It’s undergone massive testing to get the flavors just right. Not only that but ordinary people of all ages did the sampling and none were approved until all unanimously agreed that the fruit flavors were far above average. In fact they taste as delicious as their names sound; Blue Raspberry Swirl, Cool Melon Splash, Fresh Citrus Berry, and Grapefruit Mango.
Every part of us is made up of proteins, including skin, bone, hair, muscle, cartilage, and antibodies. It’s an important component of every cell and some of our hormones. Since this isn’t a science lesson, we won’t go into more detail, but suffice it to say that protein is essential in our lives. Without enough of the right kind we can lose muscle mass, hair, the ability to make insulin, and generally deteriorate. We’ll also get sick and feel exhausted. If the deficiency is great enough, we can die. When we take in protein, it breaks down into amino acids, which are important factors in our chemical structure. We manufacture some of them, but the rest are derived from the foods we eat. Our bodies don’t store protein, so we need to ingest some everyday. Much of our protein is in dairy and meat products, which if not chosen carefully can also be high in fat.
One of the benefits of using Profect is the amount and quality of the protein provided. Each container holds twenty-five grams of protein and supplies the necessary amino acids that we get from various foods. Because we don’t necessarily know which ones come from which foods, Profect takes care of any guessing on our part. It’s also full of water-soluble vitamins. The beauty of this product is that you get your daily requirement of protein without loading up on fats and carbohydrates. It’s truly a win-win situation. You have the convenience and portability of junk food, without the junk. Not only that, but unlike junk food, Profect will not leave you hungry. You feel completely satisfied, as well as energized, and in addition you’re improving your health every time you drink it.
