The Power of Protein for Women Over 40

There’s a lot of noise in the nutrition world—but one truth I’ve come to live by? Protein is your best friend, especially after 40.

As we age, our muscle mass naturally declines. But here’s the good news: you can absolutely reverse that trend. And it starts with your plate.

Protein helps preserve lean muscle, supports a healthy metabolism, balances blood sugar, and keeps you fuller longer. And no, it’s not just for bodybuilders.

Start small and focus on consistency:

  • Add eggs or Greek yogurt to breakfast.

  • Include lean proteins such as turkey or fish in your lunch.

  • Enjoy a protein shake post-workout or as a snack.

  • Add collagen powder to your morning coffee (20g of protein!)

Your body is changing—and protein helps you change with power and strength.
