Why Women Are Told 'Thin Is Better' Is Harmful

Join my FREE 3-Day Water Fast Challenge - October 15th. It's the exact protocol I use with pro athletes and Fortune 500 CEOs to flush inflammation and kickstart autophagy. Sign up here! http://bit.ly/4nTILPt

The supplement aisle isn’t just reserved for bodybuilders anymore. Specific nutrients become non-negotiable for women navigating hormonal changes. Cynthia Thurlow shares why creatine monohydrate deserves a spot in every woman's routine for optimal health, the protein threshold required to stimulate muscle protein synthesis (hint: it’s more than what you’re eating), and why body composition matters infinitely more than the number on your scale.
