Protein isn’t just for athletes. It’s the foundation of your muscles, hormones, skin, bones, metabolism, and even your mood. And most adults (especially women over 35!) aren’t getting nearly enough.
1. You Feel Hungry All the Time (Even After Meals)
If meals don’t keep you full for long, low protein is often the culprit.
Protein slows digestion, stabilizes blood sugar, and increases satiety hormones, helping you feel satisfied instead of reaching for snacks an hour later.
2. You’re Losing Muscle or Strength Without Trying
Muscle naturally declines with age, but low protein accelerates the process.
If workouts feel harder, or you’re noticing less tone, your body may not have the amino acids it needs to maintain and repair muscle tissue.
3. Your Hair, Skin, or Nails Feel Weaker
Protein is literally the building block of keratin and collagen.
Brittle nails, hair shedding, slow hair growth, or dull skin can all reflect low protein intake.
4. You’re Constantly Tired or Sluggish
Protein helps regulate blood sugar, builds neurotransmitters, and supports steady energy.
Without enough, you may feel flat, foggy, or exhausted, even if you slept well.
The Bottom Line
Most people underestimate just how much protein their body needs to feel strong, energized, and supported.
When you consistently hit your protein goals, everything feels easier.
