Summary
#238. Today, I’m joined by Liz Plosser, former Editor-in-Chief of Women’s Health, NASM-certified trainer and nutrition coach, and founder of the Best Case Scenario Substack. We’re diving into one of the most important (and overlooked) parts of women’s health: amino acids and protein nutrition.
We talk about why protein matters more as we age, what amino acids actually do in the body, and why Kion Aminos has become a daily must-have in both of our routines. Liz shares her own journey with protein and supplementation, what she’s learned after decades in the wellness space, and how women can better support their health, hormones, mood, and longevity through simple daily practices.
If you’ve ever wondered if you’re eating enough protein, how to support your body during different life stages, or what makes essential amino acids so powerful, this episode is for you.
✨ What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- Why amino acids are the active ingredient in protein
- How protein and muscle mass support fat loss, healthy aging, and longevity
- The unique benefits of amino acids for women in their 30s, 40s, 50s, and beyond
- How Kion Aminos supports hormone health, energy, mood, skin, hair, and nails
- Practical tips for getting enough protein daily (even if you struggle with it!)
💡 My Personal Go-To
I use Kion Aminos every single day. They’ve been a game-changer for my energy, recovery, and overall wellness.
