#192: Protein FAQs: How Much You Need, When to Eat It, Weight Gain & Protein Powders
03/11/2026 | 17 mins.Protein is the topic I get the most questions about.
And it just got personal. After my dad's stroke a few weeks ago, his doctor told him the same thing I've been telling my parents for years: eat more protein.
Our protein needs go up as we age, because our bodies get worse at using the protein we eat. And if you're strength training to build muscle, eating enough protein has to be part of your lifestyle.
In this episode, I answer your 4 most common protein questions:
1. How much protein you actually need
2. Whether it matters when you eat it
3. Why eating more protein can make you gain weight
4. How to tell if a protein powder is any good
Enjoy the show!
