Whether you want to build muscle, tone up, boost your metabolism or balance blood sugar levels, you need to make sure you’re consuming enough protein. To grow muscle, experts recommend consuming between 1.2g to 2g of protein per kilo of body weight, which can seem like a lot.

Eating it all at mealtimes can make you feel stuffed and sluggish, which is where protein-based snacks come in. These snacks are the ideal way to help you avoid spikes and crashes from big meals, digesting a protein snack can help you feel fuller longer. Suffer from a mid-afternoon productivity slump, especially on days when you’ve been working out? Tucking into some protein will not only help you hit your daily intake but is far better for you than reaching for caffeine or sugar.

Whether you like a moist brownie, a gooey cookie or a crisp wafer, Myprotein has plenty of ways for you to get a protein fix on the go. There are vegan options and low-calorie options at less than 100kcal per snack. And they’re a lot easier to consume on the go than a protein shake as you don’t need to carry a bottle around with you all day. Here are some of our favourites.
