If you're a midlife woman trying to get straight answers about protein, this episode of The Body Pod is required listening. Host Hailey Babcock sits down with nutrition scientist Mikki Williden, PhD, and nutrition coach Brandon DaCruz to tackle the online protein controversy head-on: is there really a "ceiling" of 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, or does that number change entirely once a midlife woman is strength training and eating in a calorie deficit?

Elite coach Brandon DaCruz reveals how women can build lasting strength through evidence-based training, smarter nutrition, and metabolic restoration. Learn why stress, sleep, hormones, and recovery are just as vital as workouts for sustainable fat loss and muscle growth. A must-listen for women ready to ditch chronic dieting and thrive with balanced, science-backed strategies.
