THE PERFECT SERVING:
½ cup granola + 1 cup plain Greek yogurt + ½ cup berries = 30g protein!
💪 WHY THIS BREAKFAST WORKS:
🔹 Greek yogurt = 20g protein (builds muscle, boosts metabolism)
🔹 Nuts & seeds = 10g protein PLUS healthy fats & omega-3s
🔹 Walnuts, chia & flax = Lower triglycerides naturally
🔹 Oats = Beta-glucan fiber for heart health
🔹 Berries = Antioxidants for brain & immune support
🔹 EVOO = Heart-healthy fats that fight inflammation
📖 WHY PROTEIN MATTERS AFTER 60:
After menopause, women lose muscle mass FAST (up to 8% per decade!). This slows metabolism, makes weight loss harder, and increases fall risk. Getting 25-30g of protein at breakfast helps you maintain muscle, stay strong, and keep your metabolism active!
💰 COST BREAKDOWN:
This homemade granola costs about $1.25 per serving vs. $4-6 for store-bought protein granola loaded with sugar. Plus you control exactly what goes in it!
