'I'm a Health Editor, and This High-Protein Snack Is Saving My Life'
There's been a massive protein frenzy this year, and while I think our cultural obsession with it has its faults (protein isn't a cure-all; you do still need to eat tons of veggies and unprocessed foods and get enough exercise), I also get it. Protein can help us meet our weight loss goals, improve muscle mass, aid in post-exercise recovery, support our immune systems and so much more.

As a busy mom, the main thing I love about protein right now is that it gives me a burst of energy that actually lasts. It also helps me stay full for a while, which is necessary at a time when I barely feel like I have five minutes to eat. I'm also breastfeeding, and getting enough protein is key to keeping my milk supply up.

Siggi's Protein Packs are currently available in the two flavors featured above, Blueberry Pomegranate and Strawberry Acai, and you can buy them for $1.99 each at Whole Foods stores nationwide. Currently, these are only sold individually, but I'm hoping the brand will role out multi-packs sometime this year!
