Many women know the feeling: you pay attention to your diet, eat “healthy” – and yet something is often missing. Protein<\/strong>. Yet protein is one of the most important building blocks for our health – and women<\/strong> in particular often eat too little of it in everyday life.<\/strong><\/p>

Why we women need enough protein every day<\/strong><\/h4>

Protein is not just for sportswomen or “fitness women”. Our body needs it every day for basic functions such as: <\/p>

  • Strong, healthy muscles<\/strong><\/p><\/li>

  • Beautiful, firm skin<\/strong> (collagen consists of amino acids!)<\/p><\/li>

  • Stable energy and fewer cravings<\/strong><\/p><\/li>

  • A healthy hormone balance<\/strong><\/p><\/li>

  • A strong immune system<\/strong><\/p><\/li><\/ul>

    And here’s the thing: women’s protein requirements increase with age – especially during the menopause<\/strong>.<\/p>

    Why does the need for protein increase during the menopause?<\/strong><\/h4>

    During the menopause, oestrogen levels fall. This has clear effects: <\/p>

    1. Muscle loss accelerates<\/strong>
      Less oestrogen means that your body loses muscle mass faster. Protein helps to slow this down – and keep your metabolism active at the same time.<\/p><\/li>

    2. The body builds up less collagen<\/strong>
      The skin changes, becomes drier and less elastic. Sufficient protein is the basis for the body’s own collagen formation.<\/p><\/li>

    3. The metabolism needs more support<\/strong>
      Protein keeps you full for longer, stabilizes blood sugar and reduces the typical energy rollercoaster that many women experience during this phase.<\/p><\/li>

    4. Hormones need amino acids<\/strong>
      Hormones consist of proteins or require them for their construction. Without enough protein, the system is more easily thrown out of balance.<\/p><\/li><\/ol>

      In short:
      During the menopause, protein becomes a real game changer for well-being, figure, energy and hormone health.<\/strong><\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/blockquote>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

      Why plant-based protein – and why vegan protein powder from d\u014dTERRA?<\/strong><\/h4>

      Many women do not tolerate animal proteins such as whey well: bloating, discomfort, sluggishness. Plant-based protein, on the other hand, has a gentler<\/strong> effect, is easier to digest and supports a natural, mindful lifestyle. <\/p>

      The vegan protein powder from d\u014dTERRA<\/strong> is something special:<\/p>

      1. high quality plant sources<\/strong><\/h4>

      It combines various plant proteins to create a complete amino acid profile – perfect for optimally supplying muscles and hormones.<\/p>

      2. gentle on digestion<\/strong><\/h4>

      No artificial additives, no “heavy” ingredients – ideal for women who are sensitive or prefer clean eating.<\/p>

      3. without ballast, without compromise<\/strong><\/h4>

      Pure, vegan, well tolerated. Perfect for a natural lifestyle<\/strong>, whether you are looking after your figure, need energy or want to strengthen your skin and hair. <\/p>

      4. ideal for stressful everyday phases<\/strong><\/h4>

      Especially when things get hectic, we often forget to look after ourselves. A quick protein shake in the morning or between meals helps to close nutritional gaps<\/strong> and avoid cravings. <\/p>

      Protein is self-care – from the inside<\/strong><\/h4>

      Whether in active phases of life, in stressful everyday life or if you simply want to look after yourself more consciously:
      Sufficient protein is a form of self-care<\/strong>.<\/p>

      It gives you:<\/p>

      \u2728 More energy
      \u2728 More well-being
      \u2728 Better regeneration
      \u2728 Firmer skin
      \u2728 A stronger body feeling<\/p>

      And above all: the good feeling of lovingly supporting yourself.<\/p>
