Show Notes
Protein is everywhere — in our shakes, our snack bars, our cultural obsession with optimization — but the story of how it became nutrition's golden child has more to do with marketing than science.

Big ideas from Gavin Weedon and Samantha King alongside gastroenterologist Shilpa Ravella.
