Episode 254
Today, we’re here to preach some serious truth about protein powder and protein snacks. Protein powder and snacks are one of the most popular dietary supplements in the US, but, just because the label says it’s high in protein doesn’t mean it’s high in protein. If you’re getting your daily protein through out of the box processed foods, we hate to break it to you, but you’re doing it wrong. We’ll share why protein powders and snacks aren’t as healthy as you think, and how you can hit your protein goals without needing any of that stuff.
In this episode, we discuss:
- Are Protein Snacks More Hype Than Health?
- What’s Really in Protein Powders?
- What Does “High Protein” Really Mean?
- Smarter Choices for Protein Snacks & Powders
