Energy Works

Nutrition Is Personal and Your Energy Knows It


Listen Later

Tune into the newest episode of our Energy Works Podcast, where science meets spirit to help you heal, energize, and thrive. 

In this episode, hosts Lauren and Blaine explore one of the most debated topics in longevity and wellness today: protein intake. With conflicting recommendations everywhere, how much protein is actually optimal for long-term health?

They discuss opposing perspectives from leading longevity experts Dr. Valter Longo and Dr. Peter Attia, examining why protein recommendations vary so widely. The conversation highlights how protein needs change based on age, gender, activity level, and lifestyle, challenging the idea of one-size-fits-all nutrition. 

Blaine shares her personal experience navigating protein intake, muscle building, and wellness advice, emphasizing the importance of individualized guidance, self-awareness, and energy testing.

This episode invites listeners to think beyond diet trends and biohacking extremes, offering a more nuanced, personalized approach to nutrition, longevity, and whole-body wellness. Tune in now wherever you get your podcasts!
