- 0:00Intro
- 0:48Muscle is the organ of longevity. The only way to keep muscle healthy is to lift weights.
- 1:51Dr. Lyon’s focus is on muscle health, muscle protein synthesis, and optimizing body composition.
- 2:18Ageing and Muscle Protein Synthesis: There are only two ways to stimulate muscle protein synthesis: exercise or diet.
- 2:43You need the right amount of protein intake at the right times in the right amount to stimulate the lock and key effect.
- 3:12Anabolic Resistance: mTOR is stimulated by leucine, an anabolic protein that is the driver for muscle health. It allows muscle to turn over and to be synthesized.
- 4:06Muscle is an organ like the heart. It is the largest unit for glucose disposal and the largest site for fat oxidation.
- 4:26Eat More Protein. As age, we need to eat more protein at once. We need around 50 grams at one time.
- 5:10Anabolic Resistance: It is on the trajectory of sarcopenia and cachexia.
- 5:40Quality of Protein Dictates Quality of Your Health
- 7:12Animal-Based Proteins vs Plant-Based Proteins: It is based upon the amount of leucine. Vegan proteins are low in leucine.
- 8:19Benefits of Methionine/Protein Restriction
