In this conversation, I break down what really matters in the protein argument: amino acid availability, bioavailability, and how different protein powders compare to egg white, the gold standard for protein quality. We talk about why whey isolate ranks higher, why plant proteins require different dosing, and why beef protein hasnβt even been properly rated yet.
We also discus serving sizes, muscle protein synthesis thresholds, and why many people are unintentionally under-dosing their protein. Beyond that, we cover why food should always come first.
If youβre trying to build muscle, support performance, or just make smarter nutrition decisions, this clears up the noise.
