Description



Is animal-based protein really the original superfood, or is there more to the story?







What about plants? The Health Geeks are back with more reactions to Dr. Gabrielle Lyon’s Forever Strong: A New Science-Based Strategy for Aging Well (2023).







In this episode, we break down the chemistry of protein, why leucine matters, and how the mTOR pathway works. But we also ask: Should we accept all her claims at face value?







You’ll hear our first takes on eating more protein and why fiber still deserves a seat at the table. Plus, we leave you with a few ideas to chew on.







We’re not done with this book yet. Stay tuned for what’s next!
