Weight loss expert Dr Michael Mosley has encouraged those wanting to shed a few pounds to make sure they're getting enough protein in their diet, declaring that this macronutrient is the key to ensuring effective long-lasting results.
The TV doctor and brain behind the Fast800 diet explained that protein is so integral to the proper functioning of the human body that its name is derived from the Greek word 'proteios' which- quite literally means 'first rank', or 'primary'.
You can get your protein sources from animal products such as meat, eggs, and dairy, as well as through plant-based foods such as beans, pulses, and nuts
