116. Protein After 40: How Much Do You Really Need & Are You Forgetting Carbs


Listen Later

Protein has become one of the biggest nutrition buzzwords, but are women over 40 focusing so much on protein that they're forgetting about carbs and fiber?

In this episode, I'm breaking down how much protein women really need in midlife, why protein matters for muscle, metabolism, blood sugar and healthy aging, and why carbohydrates aren't the enemy.

You'll learn:

• Why protein needs often increase after 40 • How much protein we typically recommend for women in midlife • Why carbs are important for energy, recovery, and muscle growth • The role of fiber in digestion, blood sugar balance and estrogen metabolism • What to expect when increasing protein and carbohydrates
