Mo Protein Mo Problems?

In this episode of the Green Glow Podcast, Kylie shares her recent experience at the Holistic Holiday at Sea cruise, emphasizing the importance of community and connection in the wellness space. Lauren and Kylie share insights on traveling while maintaining a healthy lifestyle and transition into a red hot conversation about protein intake, its complexities, and the misconceptions surrounding it in diet culture.

They discuss the importance of understanding individual protein needs, especially as one ages and emphasize the significance of tracking protein intake, the role of protein in muscle repair, and the necessity of balancing macronutrients for optimal health.

 

The discussion also covers the myths surrounding protein consumption, the consequences of under-eating, and the benefits of plant-based proteins.

Lauren and Kylie encourage listeners to adopt a more nuanced approach to nutrition, focusing on variety and individual needs rather than following one-size-fits-all guidelines.
