#8: The Protein Hype: How Protein Supports Hormonal Health (And Why Balance Still Matters) — Part 1
#8: The Protein Hype: How Protein Supports Hormonal Health (And Why Balance Still Matters) — Part 1
In this two-part episode, I chat about the often-overlooked connection between protein and hormonal health. If you’re someone who’s active, thinking about fertility, struggling with PCOS, managing your cycle, or just trying to support your body composition and energy levels, this episode is for you.
I’ll walk you through how protein influences hormone production, blood sugar balance, inflammation, and metabolism, and briefly clear up common myths about protein. The intent is to shed light on how meeting your protein needs can support hormones, recovery, and overall health.
In part two, I’ll cover why protein shouldn’t crowd out other nutrients (like fiber, healthy fats, and carbohydrates), how those foods impact hormonal health too, and how protein supplements fit into the mix.
