S12 EP11: THE Protein Episode with Expert Advice

Dr. Donald Layman, with over 30 years dedicated to researching
protein's impact on muscle-centric health is here to chat about
all things protein! Today he's sharing his insights on: How much
protein do we really need? Is there a perfect time to consume
protein, like before or after a workout? Does the kind of
exercise we do matter when it comes to intake? How can we tell
good quality proteins from the rest? We also dig into protein
snacks and take a closer look at their bioavailability. Plus, we
cover essential amino acids, supplements, and plant-based diets –
can you really hit your protein goals without animal products?
Want to know the biggest protein mistake people are making and
how to spot deceptive marketing? Tune in!
