[Common Questions and Misconceptions About Protein Supplementation]( There are numerous misconceptions and inaccuracies about protein intake and the need for supplementation. This review busts through the confusion, offering science-supported recommendations for your protein intake. The authors address whether [protein harms your kidneys]( or bones (spoiler alert: it doesn't), which meats are healthy and unhealthy, the amount of protein you need in meals, and how active women can get sufficient protein. Altogether, this information takes the guesswork out of optimizing your protein intake. [Fall-Off-the-Bone Poached Whole Chicken (Meal Prep)]( Cooking a whole chicken can save you time and money while giving you the high-quality protein to thrive. Click the link above for an easy, cost-effective, fall-off-the-bone poached chicken recipe (including an ingredient checklist and helpful notes) that offers tender meat and rich broth perfect for meal prepping. All you need is a large pot, some vegetables, salt, herbs, and about 1-1.5 hours (depending on the bird's size). Keep the skin on to enrich the broth with gut- and skin-supporting collagen. Once cooked, you can shred the meat for salads, wraps, and soups. Store leftover broth in the fridge or freezer for future meals. This simple, delicious method yields moist, flavorful chicken and versatile, nutritious broth, perfect for preparing a week's healthy meals. [How to Live Stronger, Not Just Longer (mindbodygreen Podcast)]( My relationship with mindbodygreen goes back over a decade. I've written numerous blogs and even designed courses for them. Recently, I chatted with founder and co-CEO Jason Wachob on their podcast. We delved into my mantra about aging powerfully and why embracing aging with strength and resilience is crucial. Jason and I discussed how to plan an effective weekly workout schedule and when doubling up on workouts can benefit you. I shared my thoughts on protein recommendations for aging powerfully, favorite home-cooked dinners, and why the conversation about weight loss is changing. We even touched on my views on Ozempic and natural ways to raise GLP-1 levels. Click the link above to listen to this fun, information-packed episode.   Love, JJ P.S.
