Exploring the World of Protein Powder - With Coach Shelby (Episode 8)

In this podcast episode, we discussed the world of protein powder with Coach Shelby. We covered various topics, starting with the importance of protein powder as a supplement, not a meal replacement. We emphasized the need for most of your protein to come from whole food sources and how protein powder can be a convenient way to increase daily protein intake.

We delved into different types of protein powders, including whey, casein, and plant-based options. Whey protein is quickly absorbed, making it ideal for post-workout consumption. Casein protein, on the other hand, has a slower digestion rate and can be suitable for nighttime use. Plant-based protein is derived from high-protein plants but may not have a complete amino acid profile, so quality matters.

We discussed the importance of choosing protein powders with isolate proteins, as they have fewer fillers and a better macronutrient profile, making them more effective in achieving your protein goals.

Shelby emphasized the significance of doing research to find the right protein powder that suits your needs and digestive system. We also highlighted that protein powder should complement your diet and not replace whole food sources.

The episode closed with an invitation for questions and future topics related to supplements, including creatine, essential amino acids, and other products that can be integrated into a fitness lifestyle.
