Dr. Gabrielle Lyon and Dr. Stacy Sims break down why decades of diet culture conditioning left women dampening their own hunger cues, and why that makes protein intake even harder to fix with willpower alone. The panel explains the satiation effect from amino acid signaling, why eating protein before carbohydrates helps women get enough in before fullness kicks in, and why capping carbohydrate intake around 45 grams per sitting, using a sweet potato's 80 gram carb count as a real world reference, keeps blood glucose and triglycerides in check without under fueling. A grounded, numbers first look at what "eat intuitively" actually requires when your hunger signals were never taught right. The Proof of Practice: Where Science Meets Practice Hosted by the most respected names in women's health: Dr. Abbie Smith-Ryan, Amber Taylor, Gabby Reece, Dr. Gabrielle Lyon, and Dr. Stacy Sims, this show exists because women have been studied less, treated as afterthoughts, and given advice built for men. We're changing that. Every episode brings evidence-based, experience-backed conversations on strength, metabolism, hormones, longevity, and performance — for women, by women who've dedicated their careers to getting it right. No trends. No shortcuts. Just the proof that practice works. Listen and Subscribe: Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast... Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/033fm1E...
