Episode Description from the Publisher

Everyone is telling you to eat more protein. Almost nobody is telling you how much you actually need or why the number you keep reading online was never written for your body.Gina Livy breaks down the protein conversation that's taken over midlife weight loss: where the 20-to-30-gram rule really came from, what protein has to do with protecting muscle through perimenopause and menopause, why the GLP-1 boom changed the whole conversation, and why chewing your food beats drinking it. This podcast aligns with Day 2 of our Fall Program, members can find video in our Livy Method app or Livy Method Community Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/livymethodThere is still time to join the Fall Program and there are two ways to join you can purchase the Fall Session for $99, or become a member for $20/month for year-round support, access to every session, Livy AI, member perks and more.
