Whether you’re a busy parent, an active professional, or simply working on feeling your best, protein plays a role far beyond building biceps. It’s an everyday essential that fuels your body from the inside out.
Your Protein Needs Change Over Time
How much protein you need depends on your age, activity level, and even your gender:
– Active adults often need more to repair muscles and recover faster.
– Women over 40 benefit from higher protein to help maintain lean mass and support bone health.
– Older adults need more protein than they think—studies show it helps protect against age‑related muscle loss (sarcopenia) and keeps metabolism humming.
More Than Muscles: Protein Powers Your Whole Body
Protein isn’t just about building – it’s about maintaining and healing.
– Metabolism: A high‑protein meal boosts thermogenesis, meaning you burn more calories simply digesting it.
– Mood: Protein supplies amino acids that your body uses to create neurotransmitters—those feel‑good brain chemicals.
– Aging Well: Adequate protein supports healthy skin, hair, and nails while protecting bone density as we get older.
Are You Getting Enough? Watch for These Signs
• Constant cravings or feeling “snacky” after meals
• Slow recovery from workouts or injuries
• Brittle nails or thinning hair
• Feeling fatigued even after a good night’s sleep
If any of these sound familiar, it might be time to check your protein intake.
