#123: How Much Protein Do You Actually Need?

Rebuilding Trust With Your Body

You know you need protein, but how much? And does it live up to the hype, or is the current protein trend just another diet culture obsession?

I’m breaking it all down for you in this episode. You’ll hear:

• How diet culture has co-opted protein as the current weight loss trend
• What protein is, why your body needs it, and how it’s digested (so you can use this knowledge to apply gentle nutrition to your eating)
• How to tell how much protein your body needs
• Ways to get in enough protein without tracking or measuring
• How to approach protein within your intuitive eating journey

I’ll also be addressing the “protein leverage theory” and how you can be intentional about protein, without being obsessive or diet-y about it.
