You Don’t Need Meat To Build Muscle, Scientists Say
Both plant-based and animal-based diets supported equal muscle growth during resistance training when protein intake was adequate. A new study examined how muscle protein synthesis responds to a nine-day diet combined with weight training, asking three key questions: Does the source of protein—plant-based or animal-based—affect muscle gain? Does it matter whether protein intake is evenly [...]
