Small Daily Nutrition Moves Compound
- Nutrition is a daily lever that amplifies energy, focus, recovery and longevity when optimised rather than restricted.
- Small, consistent upgrades compound over time and outperform dramatic short-term overhauls.
Pulse Protein Across The Day
- Prioritize and pulse protein evenly across meals and snacks to support muscle, recovery, and satiety.
- Aim for ~20–40g protein per meal or ~0.3g/kg per eating occasion to stabilise energy and preserve muscle with age.
Add Colour To Every Meal
- Add colourful fruits and vegetables to every meal so you get diverse micronutrients and phytochemicals.
- If a meal or snack is brown and white, add at least one colour to improve inflammation control and gut diversity.
