In this episode, I chat about the difference between getting enough protein and getting the right amount for you. I break down why those standard government guidelines around protein might keep you out of deficiency, sure—but they’re not necessarily helping you feel your best, especially if your goals include things like holding onto muscle, managing your appetite, or just having more energy day-to-day.I also touch on how your ideal protein intake depends on your body and your goals—it’s definitely not a one-size-fits-all thing.And while I’m all for people getting enough protein, I also think we need to chill out a bit with the obsession over it. Not every snack needs to be packed with protein powder. So in short: more protein might help, but it’s all about balance.Time Stamps:00:00 Understanding Protein Intake: Adequate vs. Optimal02:53 The Importance of Protein for Health and Performance06:13 Navigating Protein Recommendations and MisconceptionsClick me for show notes!
