So to achieve a balanced diet -- regardless of diet regimen – an appropriate level of complete protein must be present in each meal. This, of course, is easier said than done for most time-starved people. Regrettably, these people are more than time-starved; they are oftentimes macronutrient starved, as well.

Pennsylvania-based Protica Research has developed a protein beverage to meet protein needs of busy consumers, dieters, diabetics, students and others. Profect® is an advanced beverage that supplies 25 grams of protein in less than 3 fluid ounces. It is packaged in an unbreakable test-tube-shaped vial and can be consumed in 2 or 3 seconds. Akin to a multivitamin, Profect can be taken immediately before a snack or a meal to fortify it with 50% of US RDI of protein and complete spectrum of water-soluble vitamins.

Profect can turn an otherwise "empty-calorie" snack into a complete meal. Its macronutrient and micronutrient profile fills nutritional void found in most meals and snacks. It does this by combining with carbohydrates and fats generally present in most foods and thereby completing ‘nutritional trifecta’ required by body for nourishment.

Of course, this is just first step. A truly healthy diet must also understand how to properly eat other members of macronutrient kingdom, including fats and carbohydrates. Actually, since so many diets revolve around fluctuation of carbohydrates and fats, it is essential to understand how to properly consume these two sources of body fuel in order to achieve optimal health. Yet which fats and which carbohydrates reign supreme? Which ones add weight, and which ones actually help body’s metabolism function more effectively? The answers to these questions will be eye opening to most dieters, and they will form dieting cornerstone for many consumers. You will find answers in second part of this two-part article entitled ‘The Macronutrient Balancing Act’.
