Think you’re getting all the protein from your meal or shake? 🧐

The truth is that your body only uses what it can absorb, and some proteins are better absorbed than others.

Bioavailability matters.
It’s not about MORE protein but about understanding the sources of protein and ensuring you’re getting a good mix.

Did you know?

Alcohol raises your heart rate, suppresses your body’s relaxation system, and keeps your “fight or flight” response active, making true rest a challenge.

Just one drink can reduce your body’s recovery by nearly 10%, and two or more can lead to a 24-39% drop in restorative sleep quality. 🛌💔

You may fall asleep faster after a drink, but alcohol disrupts deeper sleep cycles, often causing you to feel more tired the next day.

Avoid the alcohol and try relaxing alternatives like herbal teas, tart cherry juice, or golden milk can help you wake up feeling refreshed! 🌙💪
