Episode 62 Protein Beyond Limits: A Deep Dive into Muscle Synthesis with Dr. Jorn Trommelen
Manage episode 413257225 series 3569299
Join our fun conversation with Dr. Jorn Trommelan as we smash the myth of the 20-gram protein limit. Don't miss this protein-packed episode that will leave you rethinking everything you thought you knew about the role of dietary protein in your body.
Episode 62 Timeline:
2:29 How did Dr. Trommelen come up with the (milk) protein dosing for the 100-gram study? Milk has the largest contribution to protein intake in the Western world.
3:22 Prior dose-response studies – well accepted that 20 g of protein is all you need in a single meal; anything else above that is oxidized.
4:05 This new study question was inspired by the copious consumption of BBQ meat!
5:09 Do we need to distribute protein throughout the day?
6:18 Snakes can eat >20% of their body mass in a single meal
7:05 Why the 0, 25, and 100 gram dose? This study is absurdly expensive! So for all the fake science peeps online that have never done a study, STFU.
8:20 25 gram dose was used as is the “upper limit” based on prior data; 100 grams for the simple reason that it is likely the upper limit of what a large male could likely eat in a single meal.
9:33 The exercise protocol was a basic whole-body resistance training regimen
10:37 Total protein intake vs. timing/distribution
13:00 What would you speculate on 100 grams of protein twice a day versus 50 grams of protein four times a day?
17:50 Your protein requirements are likely based on lean body mass? Perhaps…not much data.
21:00 What is the upper limit? There is a practical upper limit in terms of how much you can consume.
22:25 What happens when professional eaters consume 80 plus hot dogs?
26:25 Protein intake in talented Dutch athletes – they seem to under-report protein intake by 25%
27:39 Dr. Trommelen is skeptical of the protein intake in the high-protein studies done by Jose Antonio. Are they over-reporting their intake?
29:00 Male bodybuilders are the group that does not over-report protein intake.
32:10 Compare acute feeding data vs what humans do in real-life (i.e., humans eat mixed meals throughout the day).
33:27 Most long-term studies are not “long-term.”
33:47 Most people over-estimate the role of protein vis a vis muscle growth.
37:40 Plant vs Animal based protein – the total anabolic response is lower?
39:15 The issue with veganism is they eat less protein in general and the quality is lower.
43:27 What would happen if an endurance athlete chronically did pre-sleep protein?
45:22 Jorn gives thoughts on the 1.6 g/kg of protein daily as a “starting point” with the flexibility to elevate it as needed. Carbs and fats as needed.
50:39 Good to see higher protein recs for endurance athletes.
50:59 Endurance athletes are already probably at 1.5 g/kg/d. Why do folks recommend lower? It’s so silly.
