Welcome to our Favorite Things blog series! This is where your team of wellness experts list some of their favorite foods, tools, books and resources for self-managed well-being. Nothing here is ever affiliated, just a list of things we have great experience with and recommend to our clients on a regular basis. Today is all about the trendy topic of protein! We know as we age we need more of it but it’s not always easy. To be clear, our dietitians always recommend whole foods first. For protein that means foods like poultry, meat, eggs, fish, dairy, beans, soy, nuts and seeds. But we also realize that products with some extra protein can help meet our needs sometimes. Here are some products our team loves because of healthy ingredients, ease, taste, and of course high protein content. Enjoy!
