In this episode of the Energetically Efficient Show, I am breaking down one of the most misunderstood topics in nutrition: macronutrients.

Tune in to hear:
- What macronutrients really are and why they matter
- How to build meals that keep you full and energized for hours
- Why protein is the most satiating macronutrient and how much you should be eating
- The best bioavailable protein sources for optimal results
- Why healthy fats like avocado, olive oil, and coconut oil are essential for hormone balance
- How to choose carbs that provide volume and fiber without blood sugar crashes
- Why that “healthy” American breakfast may be sabotaging your energy
