Ever wondered why not all calories are created equal? Or whether animal-based proteins are superior to plant-based alternatives? In this episode of the Primal Shift Podcast, we're going to take a deep dive into the complex world of macronutrients (protein, fat and carbohydrates) and discuss their unique roles in human metabolism.

Along the way, we’ll debunk some pervasive myths and drill down to the truth about what it really takes to maintain a healthy body composition.
