Are You Getting Enough Protein?

Do you ever wonder if you’re getting enough protein?

Your fitness app says you need 150 grams of protein, your trainer says you need at least 50 grams of protein per meal, and other countries say you need only 50 grams per day…

How confusing!

Thanks to the bodybuilding community at large, there’s been an increase in pressure to eat enough protein to put on lean muscle.

But are those recommendations too high?

And what if you’re a vegetarian or vegan? You might be finding it hard to reach those high protein recommendations.

What's the Best Diet for Your Goals?

Last Saturday, I watched the movie The Gamechangers. 

I’d heard amazing things about it, how well-done the filming was, and how convincing it was for promoting a plant-based diet.

I’ll have to say, it was really well-done in terms of the videography and the storytelling, and it left me wanting to become an Olympic athlete 😉

But the next day, I followed up on the research of the film and stumbled into too many “Gamechangers Debunked” articles and videos and podcasts to count.

And it left me momentarily overwhelmed and confused.

What’s the truth?  And what’s just anecdotal storytelling?

Do you feel the same way when it comes to figuring out what to eat?
