Find Your Body Type: http://bit.ly/BodyTypeQuiz

In this video, we’re going to talk about the different types of protein and what protein is best. 

Different types of protein:

Red meat
• It’s a complete protein 
• Very few people have allergies to red meat
• It’s more difficult for some people to digest red meat once they get older 
• Not all of it’s useable or bioavailable 
• Consume organic grass-fed or pasture-raised 

Poultry
• It’s easier to digest
• It’s less expensive than red meat 
• Unless it’s organic, you’re getting a large amount of arsenic, formaldehyde, and many other medications and chemicals 
• Consume organic and free-range 

Fish
• High-quality protein
• No carbs 
• Great omega 3 fatty acids 
• Consume wild-caught 

Pork 
• Highly digestible 
• Very high in vitamin B1
• Avoid pork from third-world countries
• Consume organic and free-range 

Dairy 
• Consume raw milk if you can 
• Many people are allergic to dairy 
• Pasteurization destroys most of the nutrition
• Fermented milk is a little better (like yogurt and cheese)
• I recommend more cheese than yogurt for weight loss
• Do whole milk yogurt not low-fat or no-fat
• Cheese is a very high-quality protein (European grass-fed cheeses) 
• Kefir is better to consume than yogurt 

Eggs
• Egg yolks are very healthy for you—it’s like consuming a multivitamin 
• Consume organic eggs
• The egg yolk should be bright orange, and the eggshell should be strong 
• Egg yolks that are grass-fed have a lot of vitamin K2 
• Eggs are one of the best protein sources 
• Eggs are very nutrient-dense  
• **I think eggs are the best protein source

Soy
• It’s a high protein food 
• If it’s organic and fermented, it might be fine in small quantities
• Most people are allergic to it
• Most soy is GMO 
• Soy protein isolates create major problems 

Chlorella 
• It’s a plant protein
• It’s a complete protein 
• It’s grown on lakes and can pull toxins from that lake 
• It’s very expensive 
• You can have it in small amounts 

Spirulina 
• It’s a good source of protein 
• It can pull toxins 
• It can be expensive
• It tastes like grass and seaweed 

Hemp 
• It’s similar to our blood protein 
• It’s not very complete, but it has some protein
• It can create bloating 

The protein sources I consume:
• Red meat
• Poultry
• Fish 
• Pork
• Cheese 
• Eggs
• Kefir
