Myth #1: Protein is just for athletes and bodybuilders.
Fact: Protein isn't just reserved for the gym. It's essential for repairing and building muscles, especially critical as we age — helping us maintain muscle mass and strength.
Myth #2: If you're exhausted, you just need more rest.
Fact: Sleep matters. But without enough protein, your energy can spike and crash all day long. Protein-rich foods are a key part of the equation for steady energy — and less of those 3 p.m. slumps.
Myth #3: Women don't need as much protein as men.
Fact: For women, hormonal balance is largely influenced by amino acids — the building blocks of protein. That means when we go through menopause or stressful times in life, getting adequate protein becomes even more important, not less.
Myth #4: If you're eating healthy, you're getting enough protein.
Fact: It may come as a surprise that a lot of your favorite foods may not have the right amount or type of protein that your body needs. If you're guessing or unsure, it's easy to fall short.
