@glucose.speaks: 💥 Comment “AMINO” 👇👇👇 for Part 2 💥 Your body has never absorbed a single gram of protein. Read that again. Chicken isn’t protein to your body. Eggs aren’t protein to your body. Protein powder isn’t protein to your body. Before your body can use any of it, it has to break it down into amino acids. Why does that matter? Because amino acids are the real building blocks. They build your muscle. 💪 They help make hormones. ⚡️ They support your metabolism. 🔥 They help repair tissues. 🧬 This is why not all protein sources are created equal. It’s not just about hitting a protein number. It’s about getting the amino acids your body actually needs. And as we age, this becomes even more important. Muscle isn’t just about strength. Muscle is one of the biggest sinks for glucose in the body and one of your greatest allies for insulin sensitivity and metabolic health. So the next time someone asks, “How much protein should I eat?” A better question might be: 👉 Am I getting the amino acids my body needs to thrive? #Protein #AminoAcids #MuscleHealth #MetabolicHealth #InsulinResistance
