Welcome back to Girls Gone Wellness! This week, we’re diving into the wild world of plant-based eating with Jeffrey Boadi, a plant-based nutrition advocate.
You’ve seen the headlines: “Plants aren't a complete protein” “You need meat to build muscle.” “Soy will wreck your hormones.” But the truth is, most of this is straight up not true and based on misleading claims, And in this episode, we’re calling it all out.
We’re breaking down:
- The biggest myths keeping people from exploring plant-based diets
- How to eat plant-based without going broke or sacrificing flavour and enjoyment
- There's no "right" way to eat, but there are important components to a healthy diet
- Why the panic over protein is overrated, and where to actually get your protein
- How gut health, performance, and mindset all connect to your plate
- And why plant-based living isn’t a trend, it’s a powerful, flexible choice
Whether you’re fully plant-based, plant-curious, or just curious what’s true and what’s not when it comes to the biggest myths in the nutrition space this one’s for you.
