Fibre vs protein - which is most important? - with Dr Rupy Aujla
How do we get enough protein without compromising on fibre? GP and The Doctor’s Kitchen founder Dr Rupy Aujla joins Liz to reveal how we can hit both our protein and fibre goals in midlife.
Liz and Rupy discuss both the quality and quantities of protein you really need to support health and longevity, and the many roles of this macronutrient in the body.
Rupy also shares the best types of protein out there, the differences between animal-derived and plant-based, and reveals why protein powders aren't all created equal.
