    - "In contrast to previous research in younger adults, we did not detect a significantly greater stimulation of MPS in participants consuming whole milk compared to skimmed milk (or almond beverage)." Ref: https://t.co/EHYKIoPuW2

    @MattMadore576 @kevinnbass @mackinprof That’s why it’s a tradeoff. Match leucine = good. Imbalance other factors like protein and fat = not ideal.

    @ZahcM Whole milk (compared to low-fat and fat-free) has also been shown to increase AA uptake in the muscle (most likely for MPS)! https://t.co/uqYuvB8wb6

Abstract Synopsis

  • This study investigated how milk consumption after resistance exercise affects muscle protein synthesis, finding that both whole and fat-free milk boost amino acid uptake and support muscle growth.
  • After exercising, drinking milk increases amino acids in the blood, and muscle then absorbs these amino acids (especially threonine and phenylalanine) to promote protein synthesis.
  • Overall, the results suggest that consuming milk post-workout helps the body utilize available amino acids for muscle repair and growth, with whole milk possibly being more effective than fat-free milk.]
