How much protein midlife women really need, with Caoileann Murphy

Are you struggling to hit your protein goals or confused by how much to aim for? Registered dietician Caoileann Murphy joins Liz to lift the lid on whether we really need to eat more protein in midlife to promote healthy ageing.


Caoileann reveals the best protein sources for meat eaters and those following a plant-based diet, and why it is more than just our muscles that need this macronutrient.


She also shares a simple sum to help you work out your personal protein goal and gives her take on protein powders.


Plus, Liz and Caoileann discuss how we can prevent and even reverse sarcopenia, and they answer questions from the audience on portion size and getting enough protein through the day.
