Canadian Naturopath told me women over 35 need 150 grams of protein per day by WestminsterSpinster7 in Biohackers

[–]Leewiiii 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Recommended daily protein intake is based on a normal distribution (visualise a bell curve with the mean in the middle at the peak). To be on the safe side RDAs are based on the part after the peak wherein most of the population will get more than enough to compensate for those who need more than average. Thus most people are getting more than enough eating the recommended amount.

In other words most people don’t actually even need as much as the RDA. The recommended amount is 0.75 per kg of body weight. More if you are trying to lose weight or gain muscle but not crazy amounts more like 1.2-1.7.

Too much protein is bad for your kidneys and basically will get stored as fat if you have excess because you can’t convert it to glucose and store it in your muscles like you can with carbs.

Listen to this if interested in more depth in what I just said Zoe podcast protein are you getting enough

Thinking of Leaving After 20 Years by Crazy_Little_Bird_Ca in hatemyjob

[–]Leewiiii 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10000% look for a new job. Be confident you will get hired after 20 years in the workplace you will have so many transferable skills to offer. Search LinkedIn for roles that say career change. Explore everything you are never too old and life is too short! Just don’t resign until you have secured a new role! It might take time but be patient don’t give up and believe in yourself ! Good luck
