I Found a Protein Source Better Than Chicken You've Never Heard of It
I lost 110 pounds. The thing that made the biggest difference wasn't cutting calories — it was protein. Staying full, hitting my targets, finding foods I could actually eat consistently without burning out.
Most people default to chicken breast as the gold standard for weight loss protein. And the numbers back that up — 31g of protein per 100g cooked, essentially zero carbs, very lean.

I found something that I think beats it for weight loss specifically. It costs about $5-$10 a jar, most Americans have never heard of it, and it's been eaten in Mediterranean and South American cultures for thousands of years.
It's called a lupini bean. And in this video I make the case — with actual research — that it's a better protein source for weight loss than chicken breast.
Not because it has more protein. But because of what actually matters when you're trying to lose weight and keep it off: satiety per calorie, blood sugar regulation, cost, and how easy it is to eat something consistently without getting bored.
I also cover exactly how to buy and eat these safely — because raw lupini beans are genuinely not safe to eat and most people have no idea.
