In this episode of the Active Bariatric Nutrition Podcast, I interviewed protein researcher and professor, Dr. Stuart Phillips, also known @mackinprof on IG. We discussed:
- An overview of protein and what role it plays in gaining muscle
- What is leucine and how does it stimulate muscle protein synthesis
- The importance of resistance training and do we have to lift "heavy?"
- What is the recommended protein for muscle gaining while in a caloric deficit
- What role does protein distribution and timing play in gaining muscle
- Difference between animal vs plant-based proteins
- Comparing whey, casein, and collagen protein supplements
- Do we need more protein as we age or enter menopause?
