Dietary protein supplies amino acids used to build and maintain body tissues. A supplement is one possible food source, not a shortcut to a particular body shape.
Where it’s found
Legumes, eggs, dairy and other protein-rich foods.
Keep in mind
Consider protein from all foods and choose a varied diet.
