Post-Workout Protein Supplementation: Speed & Source Don't Matter for Real-World Size & Strength Gains - Really?

Image
On a side note: An adequate protein intake is as important for men as it is for women, but both can - for few with real effort - achieve adequate protein intakes from their diet alone - with the same muscle-building effects . If you believed only 50% of the claims on the boxes of the currently available protein supplements, you'd have to have at least five products from three different brands to see optimal results. Luckily, there's science to tell you that the only thing you need is a cheap high EAA protein source that doesn't give you gas, the runs or other side effects... Well, that's at least what a cursory analysis of the results of two new studies suggests. Together, they can be used to argue quite convincingly that neither the protein source ( beef , chicken or whey | Sharp 2017), nor the ratio of fast (whey) vs. slow (casein) proteins (Fabre 2017) will have a meaningful effect on the only relevant study outcome: your real-world gains. High-protein ...

Whey Protein Hydrolysates are the Past! Salmon Protein Hydrolysate Can Deliver Protein Even Faster, But Does This Also Mean They Are More "Anabolic"?

That's salmon, yes, but it's not processed enough to compete with any hydrolysate. Well, unless you decide to eat and regurgitate it - after some time, obviously, 'cause "hydrolyzed" proteins are in the end only pre-digested proteins. As a SuppVersity reader you know that the amount of protein is not the only determinant of the potential muscle building effects of a given protein source. The digestion time and thus the amount of protein that is released into the bloodstream on a "per minute"-basis, as well as the amino acid profile (preferably all essential amino acids ( EAA s) and a high amount of leucine ) are also important determinants of the " anabolic " qualities of a given protein source. Using a quite unique multi-compartmental dynamic model that closely simulates in vivo gastrointestinal tract digestion in humans scientists from the Institute of Nutrition and Functional Foods (INAF) at the Université Laval in Quebec, di...
