Protein Truths and Fiber Focus: A Stanford Reality Check
About this episode
We cut through the hype around protein bars, powders, and the latest dietary guidelines, using a Stanford Medicine report to explain what our bodies actually need. Learn how muscle growth is sparked by resistance training, why higher protein targets mainly matter for older adults, and why fiber deserves equal attention for a healthy gut. We debunk plant-protein myths and offer practical tips for eating real foods that support both muscles and the microbiome.
