A. TrueExplanation
Eating a high protein food at least three times each day is beneficial for maintaining a healthy diet. Protein is essential for building and repairing tissues, producing enzymes and hormones, and supporting overall growth and development. By consuming protein regularly throughout the day, you can ensure that your body receives a steady supply of amino acids, which are the building blocks of protein. This helps to promote muscle growth, regulate blood sugar levels, and keep you feeling full and satisfied. Therefore, it is recommended to include high protein foods in your meals three times a day.Rate this question:
