You're hitting your protein. You're doing what every podcast, reel, and coach has told you to do. But here's the bit no one really talks about - not all protein is the same.

 

And as we move through perimenopause and menopause, the type of protein on your plate starts to matter as much as the amount.

Some sources are high in saturated fat. Others bring fibre, which most of us aren't getting enough of in midlife. Both make a real difference to your muscles, heart health, digestion, and how you feel day to day.

This guide lays it all out, side by side. So you can stop second-guessing your meals and start choosing protein that actually works best for your body now.
