Muscle Is Medicine: Why Protein Quality, Anti-Nutrients & Leucine Matter in Midlife

Your muscle isn’t just for strength—it’s your metabolic organ, your glucose sink, your hormonal stabilizer, and your anti-aging insurance policy.

But here’s the hard truth:
If your protein is low in leucine, hard to digest, or blocked by anti-nutrients, you're putting the brakes on everything you're trying to optimize.

🧬 In this episode of The Coach Debbie Potts Show, we explore how poor protein choices impact:

• 📉 Blood sugar and insulin resistance

• 🧠 Brain fog and neurotransmitter function

• 🔥 Mitochondrial energy production

• 🧘 Hormone health and thyroid function

• 💪 Muscle loss and metabolic decline

We dive deep into the science of anabolic resistance, leucine thresholds, and the dangers of anti-nutrients like phytates, oxalates, and lectins—especially for those navigating perimenopause, menopause, or andropause.
