The Protien Craze
Protein coffee. Protein cereal. Protein chips. Protein pancakes. Protein cookies. Protein water. Even protein gummies. At this rate, Jenna McCarthy jokes, protein Wi-Fi can’t be far behind. 😏
In her wonderfully tongue-in-cheek style, Jenna takes on the protein craze in her latest Here’s a Thought.
Somewhere along the way, protein seems to have acquired magical powers of absolution. Add a scoop of whey to a sugary coffee or ultra-processed snack and suddenly we’re not eating junk — we’re “fueling our bodies” and “optimizing our macros.”
As Jenna puts it, that 400-calorie coffee with 30 grams of protein? “It’s practically a squat in a cup!”
The annoying part Jenna says, the protein people are actually onto something.
Protein matters, particularly as we age and work to preserve muscle.
The question is whether putting protein into cookies, brownies and other ultra-processed foods really makes them a healthier choice.
