Episode notes
INSIGHT

Protein Is The Building Block Of Life

  • Protein builds far more than muscle; it forms DNA, enzymes, hormones, skin and immune cells.
  • We need higher daily protein because most dietary protein supports diverse body structures, not just muscle.
INSIGHT

Breakfast Sets Your Daily Protein Tone

  • Low-protein breakfasts fail to replenish amino acids broken down during sleep and set up mid-morning hunger.
  • The protein leverage hypothesis explains persistent cravings until an individual's protein threshold is met.
ADVICE

Have Protein First To Curb Cravings

  • Eat protein at breakfast to increase satiety and reduce mid-morning cravings.
  • Protein delays gastric emptying so it smooths blood sugar and prevents spikes and crashes.
