"Protein-Packed Jerky Sticks: A Longevity Expert's Healthy Hack"

Dr. Peter Attia, a longevity expert and author, consumes up to 10 venison jerky sticks per day to reach his protein target of 150 to 180 grams. He believes that consuming enough protein helps combat age-related muscle loss. However, highly processed red meats like jerky have been associated with health risks. Attia also takes nine daily supplements to enhance his longevity. While jerky can be high in sodium and processed, Attia prefers it over protein shakes. Different individuals require varying amounts of protein based on factors such as size, age, and activity levels. Attia recommends resistance training and adequate protein intake to prevent muscle loss and maintain physical robustness as we age.
