How is the New Year treating everyone? We hope everyone is staying healthy this winter. To build immunity against the winter colds circulating, we mixed up a healthy dessert full of Vitamin C made with Complete Whey Protein and fresh lemons!
Ingredients for our NO BAKE Lemon Cheesecake:
For Crust Blend these 2 ingredients:
1 cup (approximately 10) pitted Medjool dates
1 cup pecans (or your favorite raw nut such as walnuts, cashews, almonds)
Press gooey mixture flat into glass container. Sprinkle with Himalayan sea salt.
For filling, whip together:
Zest and juice of 5 lemons
1/2 cup of xylitol (low glycemic sweetener)
1 Tbsp. Maple Syrup
1 tsp. Vanilla extract
4 scoops of Unflavored Complete Whey Protein powder
2 packages of 8 oz. cream cheese
Once whipped, pour over the date and nut crust. Place in freezer overnight. Garnish with fresh lemon zest.
Why is protein so important to our health?
The single most important antioxidant in the body is called glutathione and it is made directly from protein.
Restrict your protein and you risk excessive aging due to low antioxidant production. And here is an important fact- you can’t replace glutathione with other antioxidants like vitamin C. Glutathione has a specific role in protecting your body and only it can perform that protective role.
Your immune system helps fight infections and to do this it uses specific types of immune-boosting proteins. Consuming high-quality protein can be a nice boost to your immune system. Without it, your immune system would shut down and you would likely become ill from bacterial or viral infections.
