E17 - Leucine On A Vegan Diet

  • Resumen

  • In this episode, Caitlin & Leah discuss the importance of leucine in optimizing muscle protein synthesis for individuals following a vegan or plant-based diet. It explains that leucine is an essential amino acid that plays a key role in triggering muscle protein synthesis. The conversation explores different ways to ensure adequate leucine intake, including incorporating soy-based foods, optimizing protein doses throughout the day, and considering leucine supplementation. It also touches on the use of branch chain amino acid (BCAA) and essential amino acid (EAA) supplements. The main takeaway is that while hitting the leucine threshold is important, total protein intake remains the most crucial factor for muscle growth.
