Macro Myths: Protein — How Much Is Too Much?

Macro Myths Series: Part 3

Are you snacking on cold chicken nuggets, chugging a protein smoothie, and wondering why you're still starving an hour later? You're not alone, mama—and this episode is for you.

In today’s deep dive, we’re busting the biggest myths around protein: how much you actually need (hint: it’s probably less than you think), the dangers of the billion-dollar protein supplement industry, and what happens when you go to extremes—like the carnivore diet.

We’ll talk about how real protein fuels energy, mental clarity, hormone balance, and weight loss—and why quality matters more than quantity.

You’ll learn:

• How to tell if you’re getting too little (or too much) protein.

• Real food examples of how to hit your daily protein needs—without powders or bars.

• Why bloating after protein might be a stomach acid issue (and how to fix it).

• What to look for in a quality protein supplement—if you actually need one.

This one’s packed with truth, practical tips, and plenty of mom-life humor. Let’s clean up the confusion and get back to fueling your body the way God designed—no gimmicks required.
