The best nutrition advice for women over 40: Protein

Alpine Nutrition LLC Season 3 Episode 84

How much protein should you eat to maintain or build muscle after 40? Will eating more protein help you lose weight?

These are the questions we answer in part 3 of the mini-series The Best Nutrition Advice for Women Over 40

Culinary instructor and nutritionist Ami Karnosh is back to bust myths about high-protein diets and answer the timeless question of how much protein you need to be healthy. 

We talk about why you shouldn't replace carbs with protein.

Why protein is essential for satisfaction and reducing the urge to binge on carbs.

Plus how to increase the variety of protein food sources and boost your overall wellness in midlife.
