#15 - Science of Muscle Growth and Optimal Protein Intake
Manage episode 320671827 series 3317664
Muscles are a key organ for longevity, yet the majority of patients I see in my clinic suffer metabolically, physically, and even mentally from a lack of optimal muscle strength. Most individuals are also consuming insufficient protein to activate muscle growth. In this episode I discuss:
- The science of muscle growth (aka muscle protein synthesis)
- The role of insulin and mTOR using a Marvel superhero
- Defining optimal protein intake for muscle growth
- Vegetarian vs animal protein
- Fasting, exercise and other lifestyle factors affecting muscle
