How much protein do you actually need?- Episode 85

There’s a lot of myths around protein intake - how much is too much? Not enough? What if I’m working out a lot, does that change how much protein I need? I don’t know about you, but I have lots of questions…and we need a pro to tell us what’s real, and how much protein we really need.   My guest, Erica Giovinazzo, is a registered dietitian, certified specialist in sport dietetics, a former Nike master trainer and personal trainer. Erica is the perfect person to talk about why we need protein, how your exercise level impacts the amount of protein you should be eating, how to actually get that amount of protein in your daily meals, and when protein powders are needed.
