In this episode of the Over 40 Fitness Hacks podcast, host Brad Williams interviews Tracy, an integrative health coach who specializes in women over 50. The focus of the episode is on the concepts of overeating and under eating, as well as the importance of consuming quality protein. Tracy explains that many women tend to undereat when trying to lose weight, which is counterproductive as the body holds onto fat stores in response. Increasing protein intake, particularly from quality sources, can help release body fat. Brad agrees and emphasizes the benefits of protein for calorie burning, muscle building, and maintaining a healthy metabolic rate.

They also discuss the importance of maintaining a sustainable and balanced approach to nutrition, rather than resorting to extreme calorie restriction. Tracy suggests treating oneself with the same love and care as you would a small child. They highlight the advantages of eating clean, whole foods, and the satisfaction and satiety provided by high-quality protein. Tracy shares her favorite trick of making bone broth vegetable soup, which is nutrient-dense, filling, and easy to prepare.

The conversation then shifts to the topic of plant-based diets, with Tracy expressing her view that they may not be suitable for everyone. While she promotes eating plenty of plants, she believes that high-quality meat can be beneficial for most people, cautioning against consuming factory-farmed meats filled with hormones and antibiotics. Tracy shares her concerns about soy consumption and emphasizes the importance of enzymes and probiotics for optimal digestion and gut health. Brad reflects on his own experience trying a vegan diet and the challenges he faced with meeting protein needs while avoiding excessive carbohydrate intake.
