Protein: the most important macronutrient as we age Part 2

In our previous episode of the Hormone Balance Solution podcast we discuss the vital importance of protein and prioritizing your health in your 40s to prevent chronic disease later in life. (Listen to Part 1 HERE)

In part 2 of this conversation on protein I speak to the quality of protein and why it matters, are protein powders a good alternative? and what to look for when choosing a protein powder. 

I also compare animal and plant based protein and how they measure up when it comes to muscle and metabolism supportive amino acids like Leucine. We'll dive into the importance of leucine, how it's the star of the show when it comes to muscle protein synthesis.

And we'll discuss how to track your protein and how having a high-protein breakfast is the best way to shift into an anabolic state.

If you want to learn more about what's going to maintain and optimize your health, and how to do your best at preventing chronic disease as you age, subscribe to the podcast for our weekly conversations.
