Protein and GLP-1: How to Protect Your Lean Mass

GLP-1 medications shrink your appetite, but protein keeps your muscles intact. At auravi, Preserve is your protein partner. Let’s explore how it works on GLP-1, with science behind it.

Why Protein Matters on GLP-1

GLP-1 cuts calories—up to 15% weight loss (Lancet, 2021)—but 25-30% can be muscle without enough protein (Obesity, 2020). Protein builds and repairs muscle, keeping your metabolism revved (American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 2016).

How Much Protein You Need

Aim for 1.2-1.6 g/kg body weight daily—80-100 g for 130 lbs (Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, 2017). Less risks muscle breakdown, slowing your GLP-1 gains.

Best Protein Sources

  • Lean Meats: Chicken or turkey.
  • Plant-Based: Lentils or tofu.
  • Supplements: Preserve with 7 g EAAs.

auravi’s Protein Boost

Preserve delivers Creatine (3 g) and HMB (1.5 g) to amplify protein’s effects (Nutrition & Metabolism, 2018). Add Daily Essentials for B12 (500 mcg).
