When people are most likely to die (over 65) higher protein is associated with lower risk of cancer and premature death.
Keep that in mind when considering protein.
How to get your protein from plants - outstanding paper https://t.co/FMXdWTxk26 from @JornTrommelen Pinckaers, van Loon, and Snijders.
Some planning and protein complementation are important to achieve adequate intakes of EAA
@Plant_proof Legumes…Lentils…Ah! Leucine. Only two mentions? Maybe I’ll need to look for alternative sources of leucine. 😉Congratulations on a fantastic book to support a fascinating podcast.
More data showing the protective benefit of keeping body fat within a healthy range. And the benefit of maintaining lean muscle mass.

💪🏼🎧A fantastic podcast here with @DrBenKirk on the geriatric giant osteosarcopenia!
This is a major public health concern for the ageing population & requires an increased emphasis on screening & preventative measures to tackle this problem!

@mackinprof I’m interested in healthy ageing. These subjects were young (27) and healthy, but the older you are, the more (protein/leucine) you need to overcome anabolic resistance. This still holds, right?
Use It or Lose It. Maintain and preserve your muscle mass, strength ad functionality with sufficient high leucine protein for your age (and here's the key) spread throughout the day. #3x30g. https://t.co/7nOEppkRXC
All older adults are at risk of losing muscle mass and strength as they age. This loss is termed sarcopenia and international guidelines to identify and manage #sarcopenia have just been released @ICFSRcongress https://t.co/g6umVTNfFT
