I never have been, but skipping protein in the morning is something I have stopped doing because this is what happens when you do.

Your cortisol stays elevated, your blood sugar swings, and your body starts pulling from muscle for fuel instead of food.

Yeah, that's not going to happen to me now that I'm 30 and I'm you know, you start losing muscle at 30.

So yeah, protein in the morning is one of the simplest things you can do to stabilize your hormones and your energy for the entire day.

So every morning I make a loaded smoothie, which is so easy for me to eat on the go.

I don't know, it's just easier for me than making breakfast with eggs and whatever.

And I am particular about which protein powder I use because most of them are actually a problem.

Consumer Reports tested protein powders and found more than two-thirds had lead levels.

A Clean Label Project study of over 160 top-selling US protein powders found 47% exceeded those same limits.

What is going on? So Puri third party tests every single batch for 200 plus contaminants and publishes every result online.
