Protein Powders And How Peanut Butter Powder Fits
Understanding How Much Protein One Needs
The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) for protein is 0.8 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight or 0.36 grams per pound. This equates to:
- 56 grams per day for the average sedentary man.
- 46 grams per day for the average sedentary woman.
However, many experts believe the RDA underestimates the average protein needs. Higher intakes may be beneficial for building muscle, losing fat and optimizing health.
- Moderately active adults: Similar to sedentary adults, target 0.5 to 0.8 grams of protein per pound (1.1 to 1.76 grams per kilogram) of body weight. Remember, activity increases calorie needs, not protein needs.
- Heavy strength training adults: Consider 0.7 to 1 gram of protein per pound (1.54 to 2.2 grams per kilogram) of body weight or more. For instance, a person weighing 150 pounds (68 kilograms) might need 105 to 150 grams of protein per day.
- Endurance athletes: Consume 0.5 to 0.8 grams of protein per pound (1.1 to 1.76 grams per kilogram) of body weight. Opt for the higher end, especially during intense or long-duration exercise. For a person weighing 150 pounds (68 kilograms), that’s 75 to 120 grams of protein.
- Ultra-endurance athletes: Aim for up to 1 gram of protein per pound (2.2 grams per kilogram) of body weight to optimize muscle repair and recovery. Adjust intake based on the demands of prolonged, strenuous activities.
Benefits Of Consuming Peanut Butter Powder
Peanut butter powder is a unique way to add nutritious protein and peanut flavour to your diet. It’s made by pressing roasted peanuts to remove most of the natural oils and reduce the fat content. What’s left is a fine, powdery peanut meal that packs a hefty protein punch.
Two tablespoons of peanut butter powder typically provides around 8-10 grams of protein. That’s about the same amount you’d get from a hard-boiled egg or a serving of Greek yogurt. Peanut butter powder is ideal for adding to smoothies, oatmeal, yogurt, baked goods, and more. It blends seamlessly into liquids with a rich, nutty flavour.
Peanut butter powder is a great low fat protein powder option. Peanut butter powder also has a longer shelf life compared to regular peanut butter. It requires no refrigeration and has a shelf life of 1-2 years.
Some other benefits of peanut butter powder include:
- Convenient protein source for vegans and vegetarians
- It provides nutrients like niacin, magnesium, potassium, iron, and some fiber
- Can be added to recipes without altering the texture
- Versatile ingredient for shakes, oats, bars, smoothies, etc
- Shelf-stable and portable for travel and outdoor activities
- Lower in sugar than many protein powders
Tips for Adding Peanut Butter Powder
Peanut Butter Powder from MYPB is a versatile ingredient that can be seamlessly incorporated into many foods and recipes:
- Smoothies – Add 1-2 tablespoons of powder to your favorite protein smoothie for extra creaminess and nutty flavor. The powder blends smoothly into the liquid.
- Oatmeal – Stir 1-2 tablespoons of powder into cooked oatmeal along with your other toppings. It dissolves easily and gives the oatmeal a peanut butter taste.
- Yogurt – Mix in 1 tablespoon of powder into a bowl of plain Greek yogurt. It incorporates well and adds protein.
- Baking – Replace up to 1/4 cup of flour in recipes with peanut butter powder. It works great in cookies, muffins, breads, and more. Start with a small amount and increase to taste.
- Protein Bars – Substitute 2-4 tablespoons of the powder for peanut butter or another nut butter in homemade protein/energy bar recipes.
- Protein Shakes – Add 1-2 tablespoons to your post-workout protein shake for extra thickness, taste, and nutrition.
- Overnight Oats – Stir in 1-2 tablespoons of powder when preparing overnight oats. Let it soak in and absorb the flavors.
- Pancakes – Mix 2-4 tablespoons into your pancake batter for fluffier, peanut-buttery taste.
- Sauces – Whisk a tablespoon into dressings, marinades, nut butters, hummus and more.
