“How Much Protein Do I Really Need?” 🤔
This is one of the most common questions I get—and it’s a great one.
If you're 40+, staying strong, energized, and supporting muscle is key. A good target? 0.7–1g of protein per pound of body weight daily.
That might sound like a lot at first, but here’s how to make it doable:
âś… Use protein shakes to fill in gaps
âś… Add protein powder to yogurt or even your coffee
âś… Keep hard-boiled eggs on hand for an easy snack
âś… Build each meal around a quality protein source
Don’t overthink it—just start by showing up for the habit.
Focus on one meal at a time, and as your routine improves, optimize with more whole foods.
Small, consistent upgrades = big results over time.
