Why Most Women Undereat Protein (and What It's Doing to Your Energy, Mood, and Body)

If you feel tired all the time, crave sugar constantly, or feel like you’re doing everything right but not seeing results—you’re not alone. The missing link might just be protein.

Most Women Don’t Get Enough

Studies show that many women, especially those with busy lifestyles, aren’t hitting the minimum recommended protein intake. For instance, research shows that nearly half of women aged 50 and older consume less protein than recommended (NPR).

What Happens When You Don’t Get Enough Protein:

  • Low energy levels: Protein helps stabilize blood sugar and support steady energy (The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition).

  • Muscle loss (even if you're active): Protein deficiency accelerates muscle atrophy, especially with age (NIH).

  • Sugar cravings: Low protein diets are associated with increased sugar cravings (Healthline).

  • Hair thinning and brittle nails: Protein deficiency can cause noticeable hair and nail changes (UCLA Health).

  • Weakened immune system: Protein plays a vital role in antibody production and immune strength (UCLA Health).

Common Myth: "I Don’t Need Protein Unless I Lift Weights"

This couldn't be further from the truth. Protein is essential for everyday cell repair, metabolism, mood stabilization, and more. Whether you go to the gym or not, your body needs it.
