The Protein Problem: Why Most People Aren't Getting Enough (And What to Do About It)
Manage episode 501782855 series 3407849
In this enlightening episode of the Urban Monk Podcast, host Pedram Shojai engages with Angelo from Kion to investigate one of the most misunderstood aspects of nutrition: protein. Moving beyond the polarized debates and one-size-fits-all advice, Angelo explains the fundamental science of why protein is literally the building material of your body - not just another energy source like carbs and fats. The conversation addresses the challenges of getting adequate protein as we age, the critical difference between essential and non-essential amino acids, and why traditional approaches to protein often fall short, especially for women over 40.
