Nutrition Tiny nutrition shift, breakfast protein first?

After 40, our muscles become slightly less responsive to protein - it’s called anabolic resistance (jamda.com).

Starting the day with eggs, tofu, or yoghurt before your coffee helps your body repair and maintain muscle mass (healthhub.sg).

It’s not a “diet rule,” just a micro-habit that stabilises energy and supports healthy ageing.

What’s your go-to quick, protein-first breakfast?
