Are you over 40 and hoping to burn fat, build muscle, and feel your best?  Have you been working out and not seeing results?  If you said yes to either of those questions, I have one word for you: protein. The fact is, if you’re not getting enough protein, you’re going to have a hard time achieving your fitness goals. Not only that, it could take a truly devastating toll on your health and your metabolism. In this episode, you’ll learn everything you need to know about how much protein to eat, what kind of protein to eat, and when to eat it. I’m also explaining how vegetarians and vegans can get enough protein to build muscle and burn fat—without eating too much.  If you’re ready to change your body, you don’t want to miss this episode!
