CSIRO research reveals almost eight in ten middle-aged women report weight gain during menopause while consuming approximately 35 grams less protein than recommended daily levels. The national science agency recommends women consume 1.2 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight, focusing on fresh, unprocessed sources including meat, dairy, eggs, legumes and nuts to maintain metabolism and physical strength.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
