Why Less Protein Might Help You Age Better: New Research

from The Wellness Rhythm Show

Hosts Emma Sullivan and David Park break down surprising research showing that high protein intake may actually accelerate aging in adults under 65, while becoming protective after 65—and explain the practical shift in how you should be eating protein at different life stages. You'll learn why the "more protein is always better" fitness industry messaging misses the nuance of longevity science, and walk away with concrete, actionable changes like distributing protein evenly across meals rather than loading it into one sitting. The episode cuts through marketing noise to show what the actual research says about protein, aging, and how your nutritional needs shift as you get older.Follow The Wellness Rhythm Show:  ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWellnessRhythmShow  📖 Newsletter: https://thewellnessrhythmshow.substack.com  Powered by VoxCrea.AI
