Why this works — Mila's notes
CHICKEN AND LEAN PROTEIN
Chicken breast provides 31 g of protein per 100 g: supports muscle mass, stabilizes blood sugar, and promotes dopamine and afternoon energy.
EGGS AND CHOLINE
One egg provides ~125 mg of choline: essential for brain, hormones, and liver health after age 30. It also supports acetylcholine, your ally for memory and focus.
OLIVE OIL AND POLYPHENOLS
Extra virgin olive oil is rich in polyphenols and oleocanthal: powerful anti-inflammatories that protect your joints and heart while improving absorption of fat-soluble vitamins A, D, E, and K.
