Episode notes
Protein Raises Metabolic Rate
- Protein has the highest thermic effect so digesting it burns more calories.
- This raises daily energy expenditure and helps maintain metabolism while dieting.
Prioritize Nutrient Density
- Build a nutrient-dense, whole-food diet to fill micronutrient gaps and support recovery.
- Use whole foods to improve metabolic function, energy, and adherence.
Food Quality Trumps Macro Equivalence
- Calories and macros are necessary but food quality shapes how you feel and perform.
- Two diets with identical macros can produce very different satiety, recovery, and hormonal outcomes.
