Getting rid of flabby arms entails a solid understanding of protein. Why? Because protein plays a major role in the female body. And if you don’t know how to manage your protein intake, results could come at a much slower pace.
And not all sources of protein are good for you.
In fact, there are certain kinds of protein that can seriously damage your health over the long run. So here are 5 terrible sources of protein for flabby arms that you should stay away from like the plague:
1. Non-wild salmon. Any type of salmon that is farm raised is likely to be loaded with toxins such as PCB’s. There is some solid research backing this up. So if your budget permits, stick to wild salmon with the highest fat content.
2. Fried protein. Deep fried food tastes very good, but the taste comes at a cost. Not only are you loading up on fat, but if you inhale the fumes your risk for lung cancer goes up a lot.
3. Charred meats. We love big grills and big barbecues. Unfortunately, all those black and crunchy edges of meat increase colon cancer risk. So stay away from any type of meat that has been cooked to the point of blackness.
4. Red meat with high fat content. Red meat has a bad reputation. But it’s not the red meat that’s bad for you, it’s the saturated fat within the red meat that causes the damage. If possible, stick to grass fed sources of meat. They will be higher in omega-3 fats and lower in saturated fat.
5. Deli-cut meat. I used to eat tons of this stuff because it’s so convenient. Then I found out that it’s one of the most unhealthy sources of protein out there. Why? Because of the nitrates. Stay away from processed meats no matter how convenient they may be. Your body will thank you for it.
Choosing the right source of protein for getting rid of flabby arms will not only accelerate results but will also maintain your long term health. And getting sexy and lean arms should be a healthy process in both the short-term and long-term. So avoid the above sources of protein!
