Скачать или смотреть The Power of Protein & The Science of Getting Stronger with Sarah Di Lorenzo | Wellness Unlocked

Join host Sally Obermeder with special guest Sarah Di Lorenzo – clinical nutritionist and bestselling author – as they break down everything you actually need to know about protein: how much you really need, what happens when you overdo it, and how to hit your targets without falling for marketing hype.

From menopausal muscle loss to protein popcorn and “black label” supermarket products, this convo is science-led, practical and super real-life.

What we get into:
✓ Why Sarah wrote an entire book on protein – and the confusion she kept seeing in clinic
✓ The rise of “high protein everything” – milks, yoghurts, bars, chips & popcorn
✓ Protein myths: more isn’t always better, and why loading up can backfire
✓ How protein really supports the body – hormones, mood, immunity, energy, muscle, repair & more
✓ The link between protein, satiety, “food noise” and sustainable weight loss
✓ Keto, carb demonisation & why a high-protein, lower-carb approach can work (with caveats)
✓ Ideal protein ranges – why it’s based on body weight, age, activity & life stage
✓ Sarcopenia & ageing – what happens to muscle as we get older and why protein becomes non-negotiable
✓ What too much protein looks like – weight gain, constipation, dehydration, gut issues & nutrient gaps
✓ Acidic diets & protein load – and why greens / alkalising foods matter for long-term health
✓ Animal vs plant protein – how much is in chicken, steak, tofu, legumes, yoghurt & cheese
✓ Cooking, water content & why dried/aged products appear “higher” in protein
✓ Why smoothies are such an easy protein vehicle (and what to sneak into them)
✓ Timing your protein – spreading it across the day vs dumping it all at dinner
✓ Smart protein add-ins: WPI, plant powders, tofu, nuts, seeds, nut butters & even raw egg
✓ The reality behind most protein bars – sugar alcohols, artificial sweeteners & gut upset
✓ Why Sarah created her own gut-friendly, monk fruit–sweetened protein bars
✓ The deeper “why” behind her work – helping people get off meds, reverse disease and feel like themselves again

Mentioned Practices & Ideas:
✓ Read the back, not the front – check actual grams of protein per serve instead of trusting “high protein” labels.
✓ Set a personalised protein target – use grams per kilo based on your weight, age & activity.
✓ Spread protein through the day – include some at every meal and key snack (especially that 3pm crash window).
✓ Balance protein with plants – load up on veggies and greens to support digestion, bones & overall health.
✓ Use smoothies strategically – add protein powder, tofu, nuts, seeds and veg for a complete, easy meal.
✓ Choose cleaner protein powders & bars – look for minimal ingredients, no artificial sweeteners, low sugar alcohols.
✓ Start with simple swaps – upgrade snacks (yoghurt, nuts, quality bars) instead of relying on random grazing.
