This excerpt from a ZOE podcast discusses the topic of protein intake and whether protein supplements like bars and shakes are beneficial. The podcast features a nutrition doctor who explains that the average person consumes more than enough protein through a healthy diet, and excessive protein intake can actually be detrimental to health. She emphasizes the importance of consuming whole foods rich in protein and fiber over processed foods and supplements. The podcast debunks common myths surrounding protein intake, such as the need to consume protein immediately after exercise and the idea that plant-based diets are insufficient in protein. Ultimately, the podcast encourages listeners to focus on consuming whole, unprocessed foods and to avoid the marketing hype surrounding protein supplements.
