217 - Is Peanut Butter A Protein Source?
Hello Nerdles! Welcome back! This week, Team Nerdle talks strength training - more specifically, how Beth and Matt are both progressing with their strength training. We dive into Matt's running progress as well before having a friendly debate about whether or not peanut butter is a protein source.
This is a controversial topic in the fitness industry and highlights a bigger issue: The rigid rules and black or white thinking that the fitness industry still struggles with.
We discuss the pro's and con's of peanut butter and various other protein sources and provide nuance to the discussion - something that is missing in this industry! Whether you believe peanut butter is a protein source or not, this conversation is sure to get you thinking.
We also discuss the new Consumer Reports findings about protein supplements and lead content and talk about the bigger issue here: the lack of regulation on the supplement industry.
