“These are general targets, not prescriptions for every age, kidney condition, body composition, or energy goal. Fish, poultry, meat, dairy, and protein powders can provide concentrated essential amino acids; people eating only plant foods may need more deliberate planning.”

“When mice or humans are deprived of nutrients, protein deacetylation – which often coincides with autophagy – begins to occur on the organism-wide level. Whether removal of single nutrients induces the same changes is not known.”

“"Recent perspectives regarding the role of dietary protein for the promotion of muscle hypertrophy with resistance exercise training." Nutrients 10.2 (2018): 180. Learn more about Dr. Stuart Phillips Stuart Phillips - Department of Kinesiology | McMaster University.”

“Judicious food choices are essential for gaining muscle, with particular emphasis on protein-rich foods. Dr. Schoenfeld asserts that current protein recommendations are too low for building and maintaining muscle mass, especially when restricting overall caloric intake.”

“Consuming more protein, equally distributed throughout the day over three or four meals, may maximize anabolic processes, especially for older adults. In this clip, Dr. Stuart Phillips discusses whether it is important to distribute protein intake equally throughout the day.”

“And, as a result, these defense systems are actually acting against the normal aging process which is also the misfolding of proteins." - Dr. Gordon Lithgow. Discussed in this episode: The role that protein aggregation plays in the aging process and neurodegenerative diseases.”

“The second Q&A turns to whey protein powder. Dr. Patrick prefers whey isolate when the goal is more protein with less lactose and fat, and she discusses grass-fed sourcing, cold processing, and microfiltration as product features.”

Dr. Rhonda Patrick discusses protein needs, choline in pregnancy, urolithin A, melatonin's benefits and risks, and creatine's effects on liver health.
