More Than Protein: Fiber + Omega-3s with Defender Bar co-founder, Matt Levey
from Christina's Culinary Voyages Podcast · host Christina Mueller
Matt Levey is no stranger to starting businesses — Field Trip, maker of jerky, meat sticks and pork rinds, is another company he is a part of. But human bodies – despite the media hype around protein – need more than protein. We need fiber, fats and other nutrients to maintain health, especially gut health. And that's where a next gen bar like Defender comes in. Levey and I chat about the ideal balance of protein, fiber, and sugar for adults and kids, what makes dandelion root such a powerful pre-biotic, and why whey is not a perfect protein solution. Added bonus?
