By improving blood sugar levels, reducing insulin resistance and positively influencing your ability to preserve or gain lean muscle tissue, you can support exercise effort and longevity.
Animal protein is generally high quality and more bioavailable for the use of muscle, but regardless of whether you are a vegetarian or carnivore, maintaining muscle is key. Essential amino acids in protein are the building blocks of muscle.

Quick support for those of you asking what I use!! First, Flipping 50 Plant Power in this one www.flippingfifty.com/protein, Silk Greek-style coconut yogurt, a dash of almond or coconut milk, Either Vital Proteins collagen OR Bulletproof collagen - I like vanilla. Other ways to add protein: hemp hearts and nut butter ! Hope that helps!!
I couldn’t do all this powders for breakfast. What works for me real foods. Nothing from box or container. I look 10 years younger. And feel amazing.
Intermittent fasting worked for a while but I've noticed that it is no longer working. I am guilty of doing coffee until noon and I'm gonna stop that habit. You have inspired me to eat breakfast starting with a protein shake. I've been watching you over the last three weeks and I have learned so much from you. Anything I watch I learn! Thank you!
You're not alone. And you may find a version of IF will work again... there's a wide continuum !
Yes IF works till it does not. unfortunately I didn’t figure that out until I did some pretty massive hormonal damage had to kind of reversed things go back to 12 to 14 hours circadian natural way of eating. I wake up and I eat or intake calories within an hour, and I eat every 3 to 4 hours, depending on physical activity, not afraid of carbs. I personally eat a lot of fruit, and just recently started to retest how my body is reacting and my glucose has been better than it was when I was intermittent fasting and even intermittent fasting for longer periods of time I feel balanced, energetic I sleep well my strength has gone up ect. I also want to note that I am a 46 year-old who had an abdominal complete hysterectomy with a right side oophrectomy in February 2021. I went through surgical menopause and have been on estrogen replacement transdermal patches since November 2021, and overall with everything I feel balanced, and more in check. I hope this helps.
Truth. Intermittent fasting backfired for me as soon as I entered perimenopause. Eating more, especially protein, lifting heavy weights, and cutting back on cardio has been transformative!
Amen
I’m 55 yrs old started strength training 11 weeks ago, focusing on my macros, and 100+ in protein, and your videos are great reinforcement- love this community! It’s very inspiring ❤
Keep it up
I am vegan. When I was a meat and dairy eater. I've never liked any kind of yogurt and never like drinking milk (even as a kid). I'll give the coconut milk yogurt and see if I like it. My go to breakfast is oatmeal with walnuts and berries or power greens smoothies with protein power, banana, water, hemp hearts and chia seed.
II’m also vegan, gluten and dairy free I usually don’t eat until a few hours after I wake up with fruit in the morning, big mixed salad in the afternoon and veggies for dinner. For protein I eat lots of nuts and seeds.. I sometimes supplement with vegan protein shakes. I’m in my late sixties and have stayed super slim. I work out with weights 7 days per week and moderate cardio.
Just found you! I am 56 years old and have had two different cancers starting at 50. Due to the last cancer I had to have a total hysterectomy. I'm not a candidate for HRTs. I am vegan so I appreciate the pea protein meal. Would love to see you do a video for us vegans. I try to pay attention to my intake of protein but there are times that is harder than others.
I can't do intermittent fasting. It's worked well for my brother, but he's not a perimenopausal woman. ☺️
Even if you stop eating at 8 pm and have breakfast at 8 am, it’s still intermittent fasting. You might be doing it without knowing.😊
New subscriber here....great info, thank you!
Great explanation! Thank you = )
Thank you!!! ❤👍
So happy I found you! ❤
Thank you sooo very much!!
Thank you, thank you. Sooo good.
Hi I'm new to your channel but love your information. Thank you and look forward to your next video.
This is very helpful! Especially when you shared your meal tips.
I lost 65 lbs and now I'm carnivore/ ketovore I'm losing fat and gaining muscle. Its awesome and I don't eat breakfast never have. I do drink bulletproof coffee with no issues. I eat at noon to 5pm only no snacks.
glad you've found something that works for you!
Same here. Never felt better in my life !
Do you have videos regarding food options for plant based eaters?
I would love for you add some videos of you cooking. First time here a love your video
I'm thankful to find your youtube. I don't have enough protein intake. I work out regularly. I love your informative youtube.
Thank you for the video, I am looking forward to trying the breakfast.
This was great, thank you! Just found your channel today and already love it. So true about breakfast in other countries. When I moved to Japan a few years ago and first went to a Japanese breakfast buffet, I was shocked at seeing all the salad, soup, rice, fish, chicken, beef, eggs, tofu, mushrooms, potatoes, seaweed, etc. At first I didn't know what I would eat because I was so used to the standard American breakfast foods I had grown up with.
So much completely conflicting advice. I’m over it!
It's true. Unfortunately until you unpack your status, your history, and what is currently going on, there is no one size fits all. Measure: muscle and body fat. Measure your subjective energy, digestion, elimination, libido... they tell the story of your current habits. You can be the expert on you.
😂
The info you're providing on this channel is excellent.
Some people just don't want to do the work, and that starts with thinking.
What are your thoughts on bone broth? ty
Very good point about the studies regarding consumption of animal proteins and cancer. The study subjects and their lifestyle etc.
I just turned 40 and haven’t hit pre or menopause yet, but I like watching your videos to prepare and interested in fitness! Thank you!
Stinging nettle is high in protein too. 😊
What do you think about bone broth protein?
Omg this is me! I am that coffee till about 1 or 2om and felt so proud of that :( thank you for pointing out why that is so wrong
Love the wisdom here about macronutrients to eat and when, but I’ll have to find the proteins somewhere else than in those big plastic containers. Also not so sure about highly processed foods. I want to enjoy my breakfast! I guess I’ll go for the bison or beef steak and the eggs! 😊 What about the fat in beef steaks ? What are your thoughts about fat? Thank you 🙏🏻 so much for your videos!
I Truly Wish you'd share links to ALL of the items your showing in this video. I do Love your exercises Lord knows your helping me so much!
Thank you: this is very helpful. The information on coconut water and hemp seeds will add more protein to my morning smoothie which already consists of vegan protein, collagen and amino acids.....The creatin I'm going to add, too. I need to suddenly change my diet at 49 (postmenopausal for a couple of years), because I suddenly, from one day to another it feels, gained more than 10 pounds, Shocker! Although working out regularly, not changing anything actually (which is the problem, I learned)I plan to also focus more on strength training than cardio-vascular, which was always my go-to. Thanx again for your video. Best from Hamburg, Germany
Great video! What about adding in grains?
I'd test toleration to gluten and wheat first (separately). remove completely and introduce for 3 days at 3 meals and see how you do.
What are the brands of what you are putting in?
Just found your channel today and I have to say, this is all speaking to me. I’ve been fasting, no breakfast for weeks and it is not working. 61, doing HIIT, weights, but not eating breakfast and definitely not getting enough protein starting with breakfast! My issue is I workout in the morning and can’t do it with food in my stomach. Definitely need to tweak my approach after listening to you. Thank you!
You’ve got this! The key is keeping stress down and fueling lean muscle
What brand of Creatine do you use?
Cottage cheese has 12 g., of protein per half cup, which is great if you can handle dairy.
I'm so glad you're pro- protein from animal products. I so agree with you about intermittent fasting and poor (crazy) habits people have developed to stay thin or women who will do anything to get back to a decent weight... which is me.
But you said something profound, I think it may be in this video or another, but, that is to look at things from a completely different perspective.
What would it look like if I achieved perfect health: a natural equilibrium within myself where I a not doing any weird diet or incorporating weird / extreme eating habits..
I'm getting good sleep, my exercise is regular. This is where there is (would be) balance.
If I was able to take the chains off and just shift into a way of being, and be more gentle on myself, would I then naturally be in great shape?
Reversing the thinking and hearing you pose that scenario really made me think.
I am 59, and about forty lbs over weight. Starting four months ago I made the decision to wake everyday and do easy to moderate exercise, but everyday and have not missed a day.
My goal is to reverse muscle loss (though I am fairly muscular and very strong) and the changes are starting to be visible, but how I feel has really changed. I am coming out of a very stressful period of my life that lasted several years, and I know the weight gain is due to the stress and crazy sleep patterns, so I made a commitment to makes changes.
I do 15lb. kettlebell exercises, and maybe elliptical 2x a week.
I am avoiding pushing hard, so as not to produce cortisol and these are daily light to med. 10 - 20min workouts.
I am.going to watch and increase my protein for sure.
Just found your channel, great information!
Keep going!!
Hello I discovered your channel and very happy I did. Some of your video's I feel like you're talking directly with me.
❤️❤️❤️
Just found your channel. I'm from UK. I have high cholesterol so newd to watch my protein intake. I take statins. Your information re protein is very informative. From cutting down drastically I still have belly fat. Building muscle might be the key I have been looking for.
So, I shall now start adding protein powders to my eating regime and pick up some weights.
Yes, building muscle and gaining strength is key. Start slowly and gradually increase your weight once you have good technique down. It may seem slow but as long as you are making increases in weight or the number of reps, you’ll see progress
I stumbled across this video today. I am in my 60's and have gained belly fat since adding intermittent fasting to my routine a few years ago. This is an eye-opener and I'm excited to see what changes I can make by adding good weight training and upping my protein intake. Thank you for providing great content. Looking forward to falling down the rabbit hole and watching more of your videos. 🙂
Start hitting the weights slowly and gradually increase your weight once you have good technique down. You don’t want to make yourself so sore that you can’t move. A little soreness is good. It can seem slow but as long as you are making increases in weight or the number of reps each week, you’ll see progress.
Ma'am you are so sensible & always have sound dietary advice. As a migraine sufferer I only drink half fat milk in my coffee other dairy is off the menu for me. Thank you.
Interesting comment here
I stopped consuming dairy a few years ago due to estrogen dominance and I no longer have a kind of migraine and I feel a lot better.
This is wonderful. I'm subscribed. I'm loving that you're breaking it down. Can you please list the products you use on the drop down, so I don't have to keep pausing and trying to write it all down? Again, you're great. Thank you beautiful lady.
Edit: I see some of those things on your counter that I just couldn't afford. How can we get all that in on a fixed budget? I hope you have time to answer, because I literally just found you last night, and I'm so happy I did. I'm so ready for a healthy change. I don't need to lose weight, but I do want to feel and look healthy. Talking about you writing a book, you probably think I'm writing one in this text, but that's how badly I want this. You may have went over this already, but I don't understand the loading phrase. Those sorts of things (how, when, etc) so if you have done a video on that, please point me to it.
On it for next time. Just for you: Flipping50 Plant Power protein, Silk Greek-style coconut yogurt, a dash of almond or coconut milk, Either Vital Proteins collagen OR Bulletproof collagen - I like vanilla. Other ways to add protein: hemp hearts and nut butter ! Hope that helps!!
I have been doing cardio workouts for years in the gym but because of one of your videos about the importance of resistance training I did do weights at the gym today. Thanks.
Stronger!!
Do you ever add Chia Seeds and Flaxseed to your foods? Is that ok for breakfast? I add it to my eggs in the morning with veggies. Just want to know if I should use those more for lunch and dinner instead?
I love the concept of intermittent fasting but I think it is backfired on me. 20 lbs probably overweight and the majority of it is in my stomach. Post menopause,41. Little carb during first meal and last with the protein? I do stop eating 2/3 hrs before bed
I do a workout class at 10 in the morning. I need oatmeal to sustain me during the 60 min workout. I have tried eggs and it was not enough.
We just suggest observing how high carbs do for your blood sugar.. many women do not do well with high carb low protein like this. Watch your blood sugar with a continuous glucose monitor, watch your lean muscle and body fat..and they'll help you! And if eggs.. it takes 6 to reach 30 gram of protein.
When I hit the 60 I started to gain weight; my running was not helpful, I did more HIIT lost 10 pounds and stopped 😢. I think so, I need to alternate running 🏃♀️ 2 a week and one session of HIIT. I will modify my breakfast incorporate protein . Love overnight oatmeal with berries but I will give up for a while. Wish me look .😊
Could you please add the names of each of the ingredients you used? I would like to try that yummy breakfast.
Here's a quick help: Silk coconut yogurt altnerative, Flipping50 Plant Power protein, Collagen (I use vital protein, bulletproof and others intermittently), you can also use Hemp Hearts. Those are the protein sources!
Hi there... see comment above where I described - and I will for next time promise!
What do you think of ground turkey as protein?
Great option
You talked about low carbs. May I ask what your macro split is?
I don’t operate like that ! We have a formula 1-2-3 lowest serving size am to more in evenings.
Wow, you are wonderful!! I am 47, and I wish I could figure out how to reduce stress, and increase my sleep. So impressive how you are able to eat clean! I am very disciplined about working out, but I have been less stringent on nutrition. I have been reading about the dairy, and am considering giving it up.. Does all dairy cause inflamation? Even yogurt???? Thank you for the wonderful ideas!!
My mother is stronger than an Ox and she lives on milk and cheese and yoghurt-- eat it.
she is 80 years old, she works out pulling weeds out of her garden and walking a lot. She eats mostly milk, cheese and yoghurt 🧀🍼🍼🍼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼💪🏼
Appreciated this video - would also appreciate input re vegetarian/vegan protein options. Or are those of us who are completely plant-based simply doomed to increasing belly fat as we age?
SunWarrior is a plant based protein.
The truth of the matter is your body does not know when you're feeding it just that you're feeding it. If you stop eating early in the day or early evening you may need breakfast. If you have your largest meal in the evening you may not be hungry or need breakfast. As long as you are getting the calories you need in the day to reach your goals it dosen't matter when you get them.
Good thoughts. And tucked in here are some principles of metabolic flexibility. Women do generally do better eating high protein early in the day and stopping eating 2-3 hours before bed
@@Flipping50TV I think those principles apply generally for women and for men :)
I don’t like fish, so I eat a lot of chicken. Also lots of eggs, my neighbor has chickens, yum, farm fresh! What’s the problem with chicken, “funky protein?”
A certain amyloid protein is hard to digest. Check Sara Banta’s Accelerated Health channel to learn more!
What brand is the taco sauce?
Sprouts or ant no sugar added .. or make your own! I’m not that ambitious anymore
Hello from Brazil! I am 60 and since I entered menopause I just can't lose weight. Watching this video made me realize how we, Brazilians, eat exactly the opposite of what we should at breakfast! My current breakfast of tea with just a tiny amount of milk and two slices of wholewheat bread with sugarfree jam has almost ZERO protein!!! 🤦♀Now I will have to think about a way of increasing the amount of protein I eat in the morning without increasing my dairy intake or relying too heavily on eggs, which I don't really like... anyway, thank you for this video, I certainly learned A LOT! (Plus, you are amazing...❤)
Ma'am if I may, I am 58, 5ft 3ins (160m) & weigh 54 kg. I eat 50grams of soaked overnight oats with flax, chia seeds, mixed berries, half fat milk & water. It fills me up & I regularly go to the gym & walk a lot. Maybe that would be an alternative breakfast if you are looking for something filling with protein too. I've eaten that for years.
@@maudeboggins9834 thanks for the tip! I will definitely try that!
@@dulcespinelli I hope it helps.
I am brazilian and I live in LA. My sisters are all (3)overweight and all three have diabetes. Their breakfast? White bread and coffee with milk and sugar. Thank God I educated myself and I have not eating breakfast like that for the last 40 years here in US. I am thin, healthy and I look (according to them )15/20 years younger than my age.I am 72.
@@kathykay6602 thanks for validating my belief that the Brazilian breakfast is AWFUL for your health! Your sisters have the exact same breakfast I used to have, and, unfortunately, it comes as no surprise to me that they are overweight... I started having overnight oats for breakfast pretty much every day and I have already lost some weight and feel much better!
I’m 40 5’6” and 135lbs. I’ve been exercising for about 7 years religiously. Strength training and Pilates is my go to. I did take creatine for a few months and I would like to start taking it again. I’ve noticed the older I’m getting the harder it is to keep the belly fat off. Which brand of creatine do you use and how much?
I zoomed in and looked it up. Thorne is what I see you using.
I like this recipe.
Soaked vegan oatmeal
Mix 1/2 c. Dry Oatmeal with 1 c fat free almond milk (or any vegan milk) 30 calories, 1 gram protein
Oatmeal - 5 protein
Add in 2 scoops Orgain vanilla vegan protein powder (it's 150 cal, 21 protein, 15 carb, no sugar!)
Plus add in 1 tbsp chia seeds OR hemp seeds OR a small sprinkle of a bit like walnuts (use your judgement on calories for yourself etc.)
Add vegan milk of choice
Top with 1/2 c. Frozen blueberries or other fruit
That's 27 grams of protein with just the oatmeal, milk and protein powder! Then when you add in nuts or other things it will increase it a few more grams and I think you're good enough!
It’s true and… still high carb, which in the morning is not ideal for insulin levels.
Debra I really respect your advice thank you. However we are having a cost of living crisis here. Women out age especially hit financially. This supplement regime is too costly. What's the advice. I'm also being told I need to lower my cholesterol?!
I'm sorry that's happening for you. FIBER!! to lower LDL and exercise to elevate HDL improves your ratio tremendously!
@@Flipping50TV thank you
As a vegan who is also very nutrition minded, I have found, or rather veganized and also essentially what originally was a mostly plant-based English classic, a breakfast "fry up", or classic English breakfast that I have veganized. The way I make it is as follows:
I use Beyond sausage, high-end plant protein and they make three different flavor profiles I just always choose the original breakfast sausage.
I substitute the fried eggs for Just Egg, which is delicious actually I think it tastes better than eggs, and I'll make a small vegan cheese omelette, using Violife brand American, cheddar or Colby type. Then I use leftover boiled or baked potatoes with some diced onion, pepper and smoked paprika and prepare delicious home fries, with a side of sauteed mushrooms, whatever type you prefer and then broiled tomato slices, with a sprinkling fine herbs or any seasoning you like. That basically gives you, counting the tomatoes, and the onion an extremely high plant protein breakfast with FOUR veggies! And most importantly, no harm done
All of those Beyond products are filled with toxic fillers and soy. Please be careful. Too much and Youre susceptible to tumors and cancer.
Where do you find ground venison?
Sprouts. A butcher. My brothers!
Can’t do dairy😮
Isn't there a way to check the blood glucose without using an app?
With a continuous blood glucose monitor - yes www.flippingfifty.com/glucose
There is no way I put all those powders in my body. Sorry
No reason to be sorry! Do know they are not created equal-which is why I created one after 40 yrs of swear I’d never.
Are there any options for plant based cheese that don’t have soy in them? I avoid soy products.
100% - I don't do soy or advise it either
I want to eat earlier. But most of the time dinner isn't finished by 6 or before 6 sigh.
So I'm a thin person with not really any weight to spare. I do however have some belly fat I would like to lose but I don't want to lose anywhere else. How can I eat enough to maintain my already weight but just get rid of the belly?
It likely has more to do with insulin and cortisol. Kick stress, and avoid blood sugar spikes! Do t eat too little- it increases both!!
@@Flipping50TV So you're saying my sugar runs high? So there's no way to lose the belly fat? What will lower cortisol?
@@Flipping50TV Im in the same situation as Gailnightow, I am thin with no weight to spare. I want to add more protein and healthy fat and regain muscle. Can you please be more specific in your response to Gailnightow..Ty
whoo hoo I get my protein in my breakfast .
I saw a dietician last month for weight loss; she mentioned no more than 30 g of protein per meal. She said women can only process 30 g, and any extra would be converted into glucose. Your thoughts?
Times are changing and it actually requires more protein as we age… due to reduced protein synthesis. Ask about the science and how long she’s been suggesting that. In 2013 this was all there was … since then there been a shift in what is beneficial
@Flipping50 I wondered about that. 😊 Thank you for your wisdom.
How about beans as a protein source. Or nuts/peanut butter.
Are the not a total protein alone? Do we need to have them with a carbohydrate?
Thank you!!
I’m guilty of a noon breakfast too. But am working on an earlier dinner, awake earlier, and be hungry earlier
Beans? Protein? They are mostly carbs! In 100g of boiled Kidney Beans there’s only 9g of protein and 23g of carbs! I’m not even mentioning baked beans in tomato sauce, it’s mostly carbs and added sugar!! Nuts? They’re mostly fat, and small amount of protein. I mean, why don’t you just read their nutrition information?
@@viktoriakireeva5860 I don't mind the naturally included carbohydrates. What I am asking about isn't on the label. It's about combining foods for a complete protein.
The level of EAA is far lower. Similar to collagen.. either not complete but far fewer levels of these EAAs from them than an animal protein. But a great compliment.. and helpful in satiety.
Good Morning! I have been doing Intermentent fasting but I stopped losing and gained some back. You talk about high protein breakfast, do you eat that before 12 or at 12. Because I was told u couldnt eat anything until then?
@@viktoriakireeva5860beans are healthy.
Not a fan of yogurt what could I substitute for breakfast
I like this recipe.
Soaked vegan oatmeal
Mix 1/2 c. Dry Oatmeal with fat free almond milk (or any vegan milk) I use 1 c. fat free almond milk, 30 calories, but it only has 1 g. protein, but I make up for it with add ins
Oatmeal - 5 protein
Add in 2 scoops Orgain vanilla vegan protein powder (it's 150 cal, 21 protein, 15 carb, no sugar!)
Plus add in 1 tbsp chia seeds OR hemp seeds OR a small sprinkle of a bit like walnuts (use your judgement on calories for yourself etc.)
Add vegan milk of choice
Top with 1/2 c. Frozen blueberries or other fruit
That's 26 grams of protein with just the oatmeal and protein powder! Then when you add in nuts or other things it will increase it a few more grams and I think you're good enough!
High carb is not ideal
Lunch or dinner leftovers. We’re the only country in the world that has special breakfast foods. Shakes/ smoothies. Low carb, high protein
@Flipping50 I also didn't realize you had your own protein powder brand! Good to know 🙏
I usually don't eat breakfast first thing in the morning and I'm not eating my first meal until about 11:00 or 11:30 in the morning.
I follow a whole food plant-based (WFPB) diet and I add in Greek yogurt from time to time or sometimes I have had a bit of sardines or canned salmon. I'm not afraid of carbs because humans have existed on carbs for many centuries! I encourage people to look up a whole foods plant-based diet because you can meet all your nutritional needs without ever actually having to consume any animal products at all. Many people live healthy lives being completely vegan and having high carb diets with low fat! If you Google it, you'll see many reputable doctors that are vegan themselves that are advanced in age and have had great longevity with a vegan lifestyle.
Is oatmeal too much carbs? Even with yogurt, nuts protein powder, berries etc?
Isn't menopause all in genetics? I know some people who never went through menopause and some that it's been over 20 years and still dealing with it. I'm 12 years in and it never subsides just goes on and on. I've tried everything but nothing works. My weight is constantly fluctuating no matter how healthy I eat, or how much I walk, exercise, do yoga, or pilates I do. Menopause is awful and I think that is why people who are going through it are stressed. Menopause is stress.
No, it’s 90 percent epigenetics- your habits
My body craves carbs in the morning and not protein tho. I eat Ezekiel cereal. What about GRASSFED whole milk yogurt with honey? Or will that spike glucose levels?
It will do that If your a sugar burner. Dairy is a challenge for many women due to gut issues and or the inflammation. So test it, or non dairy for live cultures but you lose the protein
Do you have a suggestion on how to prevent the weight gain? I'm curious if it is avoidable.
It’s avoidable. Change the way you exercise and eat to reflect your hormonal changes! More protein, fewer- not none- carbs, more strength less cardio and move… not exercise … more.
@@Flipping50TV Thank you!
I add proteon to my coffee 30 grams
Muscle-supporting protein or just collagen? They aren't the same
Are you a nutritionist along with being a trainer? Just curious since you do seem to have some knowledge in that area.
No, and stay within my scope..using science-based research to educate. A trainer can do no good without supporting hormone balance .. in all ways.. sleep, stress, and nutrition and exercise. So having the education from science... and then the decision is up to you!
@@Flipping50TV Agreed, but I notice that some of your nutritional advice differs greatly from many nutritionists.
@@gabbys7719 As do many nutritionists differ from one another. Perhaps take the info in, try it on yourself and trust your instincts?
@@analisadomenica6897 Yes, trusting instincts is key.
I was told that plant based protein powders and such is only absorbed at 1/2? My loaded shake is about 62 grams
Protein. Please no!
Actually, no. Plant based are quite bioavailable. However they do have lower amino acid profile than does animal protein. But given many women don't do well with dairy/whey and soy or eggs, it is a good alternative and recently shown as effective as whey protein in supporting recovery after exercise.
That’s good to know! Thank you! I feel great on it!
What about if you have a slim fast for breakfast? Is that good?

I'd read your label carefully and see what those ingredients are. Can you pronounce every one of them? Any sugars or chemicals?
How can I purchase your protein powder?
Pea protein makes me sick and is inflammatory 😮
Having problems seeing the whole exercises because your table is in the way, except the last exercise. I physically can't get on my knees extremely painful.
You can modify!
@@Flipping50TV how do I modify?
This is what I struggle with. 😢 I cannot afford those supplements, even if I could, I don't think I could stand the taste. I have a very sensitive taste and stomach. Greek yogurt gags me. 😢 I just don't know what a good affordable solution for me is. Also, I can't eat any kind of fish or seafood. I am doomed.
Can you tell me yogurt you were eating again. I know you said non dairy. Was it coconut or almond milk?
OMG, your talking about me.
plant based cheese? Are you kidding? No thank you.
Is life like this actually enjoyable?
Better than the alternative though
Better than it's ever been! LIVING.. with energy, strength .. now and for your 85 year old self? Amazing!
Oh, yes! Lifting heavy weights and eating more protein has changed my life and helped me deal with the effects of perimenopause. I am in the best health and fitness of my life.
You must spend $1k a month on food. The average American cannot afford this type of lifestyle.
Actually no. Mb 500. Not having processed food or sugary items makes a huge difference. It’s not about me tho. How can we each be a little better than yesterday. And positive support for each other
When do you take your Perfect amino tablets?
Away from meals. Our students do best with them mid afternoon or right before bed
@@Flipping50TV thank you 🙏🏼
My Mom hates smoothies and eggs.
As a world traveler for the past 30 years, the U.S. is definitely not the only country to do "breakfast foods" 🤣🤣🤣In Latin America it's lots of egg type dishes (even in little out of the way places off the tourist trail, and all over Central and South America), and in a lot of Europe it is super high carb items. And Canada is a country, too, and they eat the same kind of breakfast we do. The only places I've personally been that don't do a breakfast-type food is Asia. Mistakes like this make me question everything the presenter says. Unfortunately, it happens sooo often with these UA-cam Gurus. Ugh.
Europe eats mostly cold cuts and cheese or muselix
Not all women in midlife are insulin resistant or "more likely to be". In todays society based on the avg American diet alot of women may be overweight and eating shit food that makes them insulin resistance but our comment alludes to because we are post menopausal women we are more likely to be insulin resistant and that is not the case. If your overweight and have a history of eating tons of processed food then you just might be insulin resistant.
Many in midlife due to hormone changes ( estrogen drop and cortisol rise results in challenges with blood sugar regulation) and it’s not from a poor diet necessarily.
@@Flipping50TV This is true but it would be good to know how much is from the former vs the latter. However either way it reiterates the importance of eating a whole food diet and exercise for optimal results. Exercise is powerful in not only managing cortisol but also insulin resistance. Unfortunately alot of women going into menopause don't feel well therefore their activity level in the form of NEAT and exercise tends to decrease :( which is exactly the opposite of what would be optimal for managing their symptoms.
Since you are offering nutritional advice, provide references to the scientific studies. Unless you have the medical qualifications yourself
It’s a valid suggestion. You’ll find hundred on my site.. flippingfifty.com podcasts, blogs. Book resource pages all available in search icon.
Just watched your video again after suffering bad insomnia the past week now and i think one of my issues is fasting. I have a demanding & stressful job (12hr days) and go to the gym around 5/6am fasted. I lift for about an hr then go on treadmill for 30mins. All of this coupled with then going to a stressful job straight after is probably raising cortisol n not building muscle. As you say, it's an eye opener. Im going to start having a protein shake in morning. It makes sense what you said about muscle break down especially as we age. You look fabulous btw. Im 38 and hope to look like you
Good luck!!
Also, try some vitamins for stress like b complex and magnesium at night and stay hydrated.
You may also not be giving yourself enough recovery. How many days per week do you work out?
The Silk yogurt is made from soy - very unhealthy - you can’t even get it at Dutch Bros. or Starbucks 🤷♀️
No it’s not Soy. I don’t advocate soy. There is a Greek style. Are with almond
I've chosen not to eat seafood because of the heavy metal toxins that are in most, if not all, seafood.
What's the reason you're recommending not to get protein from chicken? You mentioned something about it having a specific kind of protein.
Ladies please, there are fit women all over the world and way more than in the U.S. the reason: less processed food! No powders are not helping you
grass fed/finished meat tastes really bad
Really?
Nope it does not.
