Building Muscle, Protein vs Fibre & The Supplement Trap

About this episode

This week on The Wellness Scoop, we answer your questions on some of the most common and confusing nutrition topics, from how much protein you actually need to build muscle to whether everyday foods like flaxseeds are as straightforward as they seem. We break down the protein conversation and how to balance it with fibre without overdoing it, explore whether protein powders are worth it, unpack the confusion around toddler snacks and Greek vs Greek-style yoghurt, look at the safety and benefits of flaxseeds, question iodine and seaweed supplement trends, and share simple, realistic ways to support your gut during and after antibiotics.
