Q: How can I increase my protein intake when I do not want to eat more meat for fear of cholesterol?
A: Supplement your diet with a protein powder. The 4Ever Whey Protein Powder provides 21 g of protein per 30 g serving and is sweetened with xylitol and stevia. Another option is the Omega Meal Organic Hemp Protein Powder which is flavoured with blueberries and vanilla bean, and provides 13 g. of protein and 5 g. of essential fatty acids per 45 g. serving. This is a children’s favorite. The Omega Pumpkin Seed Protein Powder is another tasty option that is unsweetened and unflavoured, and provides 10 g. of protein per 15 g. serving. None of these protein powders contain significant saturated fat, trans-fats or cholesterol.
