What's actually stopping you from eating more protein?
In my experience, it's usually not that people don't know they should eat more. It's that there's a nagging belief in the back of their head that too much is somehow bad for them.
So let's address it directly 👇
Which of these have you heard (or low-key believed)?
🔴 "High protein damages your kidneys"
🟡 "Too much protein turns to fat"
🟢 "You can only absorb 30g at a time"
🤷 I've heard all of these honestly
For the record: in healthy individuals, none of these hold up. A meta-analysis of people eating up to 3.3g/kg — way above anything I recommend — found zero evidence of kidney damage. Zero.
I break down this one and a few other persistent myths in my latest YouTube video. Post any questions in the comments.
