Episode notes
Use Whey To Fill Protein Gaps
- Use whey protein to bridge dietary protein gaps because it's the most bioavailable source and rich in leucine.
- Stop adding whey if you already hit your daily protein target through food.
Supplement Magnesium If Diet Falls Short
- Supplement magnesium because 50–80% of adults don't meet the RDA and it supports 300+ biochemical reactions.
- Consider magnesium to help sleep, energy, muscle cramps, and hormone production.
Treat Vitamin D Like A Common Deficiency
- Test and supplement vitamin D widely because many people are deficient and it acts like a hormone in the body.
- Prefer vitamin D paired with vitamin K and use 2,000–4,000 IU for maintenance, 5,000–10,000 IU to raise levels.
