S2, E4:Are Protein Bars really going to kill you?
Description
Thank you for joining me for another episode. Joe Wicks revealed his 'Killer Protein Bar' a few weeks ago and now everyone’s suddenly convinced that protein bars are the enemy.
But is it really that simple?
In this episode, we dig into the truth behind the headlines, what the experiment was actually trying to show, where the message’s been misunderstood, and why demonising all protein bars might do more harm than good. I’ll break down the real importance of protein, not just for muscle, but for hormones, energy, recovery, and hunger and explain how to tell the difference between a decent bar and a glorified sweet.
We’ll also chat about the bigger picture: why cutting one food out of your diet while still drinking wine or eating bread doesn’t make sense, and how to focus on balance, quality, and consistency instead of extremes.
By the end, you’ll know exactly how to make informed, realistic nutrition choices without getting swept up in social media panic.
and if you need help with how much protein you should be consuming, then pop me a message on instagram here.
