About this listen

 Is animal-based protein really the original superfood, or is there more to the story? What about plants? The Health Geeks are back with more reactions to Dr. Gabrielle Lyon’s Forever Strong: A New Science-Based Strategy for Aging Well (2023). In this episode, we break down the chemistry of protein, why leucine matters, and how the mTOR pathway works. But we also ask: Should we accept all her claims at face value? You’ll hear our first takes on eating more protein and why fiber still deserves a seat at the table. Plus, we leave you with a few ideas to chew on. We’re not done with this book yet. Stay tuned for what’s next! We would appreciate it if you would subscribe/follow the podcast to hear more about this book! And you can purchase it via an affiliate link by clicking the title above or on the "Bookstore" tab. This episode is sponsored by: 360 Health and Well Balanced Nutrition.
