“Building muscle mass in one's early years is essential for staving off the age-related loss of muscle mass and may promote longevity. In this Aliquot, Dr. Stuart Phillips discusses the importance of building muscle through resistance training and why starting early is important.”
“Having sufficient muscle mass markedly reduces a person's risk of dying prematurely. Although some studies suggest that eating less protein promotes longevity, those studies might not take into account the periods of disuse and disability that often occur in real life.”
“Consuming sufficient protein is essential for muscle growth and maintenance. Emphasis on specific amino acids within protein, particularly the branched-chain amino acids, probably isn't necessary unless you're an elite athlete or an older adult.”
“Protein is essential for building and maintaining muscles. Aiming for about 1.2 to 1.6 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight (about 0.5 to 0.7 grams per pound) is optimal for maintenance on the lower end and building muscle on the higher end.”
“Meditation is a form of mental training geared toward improving aspects of a person's core neurocognitive function, such as the regulation of attention and emotion. Research suggests that meditation may protect the brain from the negative effects of stress and promote mental health.”
“Meditation, in its various forms, has powerful effects on the brain and body. In this second part of our two-part series on meditation, we'll discuss some of the different ways to engage in meditation as well as some of its parallel practices, such as running or communing with nature.”
“Migraine is a neurological disorder that typically manifests as an intense, debilitating headache and is often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and light sensitivity. Roughly 15 percent of people worldwide experience migraines, with women reporting them more often than men.”
“Performing time-efficient workouts that involve supersets, paired sets, drop sets, and multi-joint exercises decrease training time while providing the minimum effective dose necessary for muscle hypertrophy.”
“Managing muscle soreness is a component of recovery – a necessary aspect of training that allows you to come back strong with enough energy and joint-related reserves to train effectively in your next workout session.”
“Individual responses to diet can be influenced by a person's genetic makeup, however. Knowing a person's genetic factors influencing their response to diet may be beneficial component of a multi-part strategy developed in coordination with professional care for keeping ApoB in check.”
