In this episode, Abby & Jillian do a deep dive into protein, a misunderstood macronutrient that most people are not getting enough of. They discuss why protein is so important, how much you actually need to support balanced hormones and a healthy gut, and why your ability to optimally break down and metabolize the protein you eat is so essential.
They clear up confusion around the differences between animal and plant proteins, discuss protein timing, and cover the controversial topic of protein powders.
Jillian and Abby share client examples, practical tips, and real life strategies for meeting your protein and more specifically your amino acids needs. They teach you how to build adequate protein into your day in ways that are both satisfying and simple. Enjoy this episode that will leave you with a new perspective on protein, and tangible action steps to get started with today.
