Simple Ways to Incorporate Whey Protein into Your Diet

by Liam O'Regan on April 25, 2022

Most of us struggle to get enough protein in our diet. Protein is found in foods like lean meat, poultry, fish, and eggs. It can be difficult to eat enough of those foods while living a busy lifestyle. One way to help boost your protein intake is to add a high quality whey protein like BUILD to your day! Whey protein is derived from milk, but BUILD contains digestive enzymes such as lactase so that even those with lactose intolerance can comfortably digest it!

For those of us that have had whey protein in the past, having just a plain whey protein shake out of a shaker bottle everyday can get boring! So we decided to put together a few super simple examples of ways you can incorporate whey protein into your diet.



Simple Ways to Incorporate Whey Protein into Your Diet

  • Add one scoop to oatmeal (add a little less water when making oatmeal)
    • Other items you can add to your oatmeal to make it even tastier
      • Fresh berries
      • Almond butter
      • Nuts
      • Coconut Flakes
  • Mix with just a bit of water or milk of choice to create a “syrup” for topping, dipping, or spreading on anything
    • Slowly add liquid as you mix until reaching desired consistency
    • Thicker consistency is better for dipping/spreading
      • Pretzels
      • Toast
      • Rice Cake
      • Banana
    • Thinner consistency is better for topping
      • Fruit Bowl
      • Pancakes
      • Ice Cream (If you want to feel better about eating ice cream)
  • Add one scoop to yogurt
    • Greek yogurt is a great option since it also is packed with protein
    • Add some granola and berries for a protein packed parfait
  • Add to smoothie for added protein
    • Smoothies are a great way to get in a lot of vitamins and nutrients
    • In a blender add:
      • Fruit of choice
      • Ice
      • Liquid of choice
      • One or two scoops of whey protein
  1. Mix with milk and use for cereal milk
    1. Who doesn't love cereal?
    2. Mix milk and one scoop of protein in shaker bottle
    3. Add to cereal of choice

An important step in eating a healthy diet is making sure you incorporate protein into every meal. Using one scoop of BUILD will allow you to easily add 25g of protein to a meal. Still be sure to get plenty of protein from lean meats, poultry, fish, and eggs, but use a whey protein like BUILD to help boost your protein intake. Increasing your protein intake will allow you to recover faster from your workouts, build lean muscle tissue, and curb your appetite!
