But if you're interested in supplements, it's important that you get them from the highest quality providers. You don't want mercury in your fish oil or lead in your whey protein or anything like that. So that's why I stick exclusively to Momentus. If you'd like to give Momentus a try, go to livemomentus.com slash perform to get 20% off your order.
Again, that's livemomentus.com slash perform to get 20% off. One of the things that is tough for folks not in science to understand often is how is the same response going from kind of low to medium, not the same as going from medium to high or high to ultra high and things like that. Like we see that physiologically consistently.

So you're mentioning, I think Luke's study had a couple of different groups and neither one of them, are what we would call maxed out on their protein. So neither one was at 2.2 grams per kilogram, which is what you said you personally recommend, right?

So what's important to understand, if you take somebody who's probably on a more traditional protein diet, 0.4, 0.5 maybe, and you increase that person to one, is that going to be the same response if you take somebody who's at 2.2 already and take them to 2.5?

In this case, protein requirements, right?

Yeah, figure out your fueling of your carbohydrates and your fat based on how many calories you need, but keep the total amount of protein there as close as you can.

So when we kind of come back to the end of where we're at now, 15 years of research on protein, well, all nutrients prior to sleep, pre-sleep feeding. Yeah.

When we look at what Luke's group has shown collectively and what your group has shown, let me see if I can summarize this and correct me, potentially a benefit to muscle protein synthesis, which would potentially increase actual muscle growth, actual muscle strength. Now, that's probably going to have the biggest impact if your protein intake is moderate to low. Right. Right.

And this is where going from 0.4, 0.5 up to 1.2 or 1.5, we're getting closer to 1.6. And Luke and yourself have said, all we're doing here is there's nothing magic. There's nothing special. There's no growth hormone release. It's not a test. It's just the fact that you're getting another opportunity to eat and hit your protein mark. Yeah, no doubt.

If you're already at those markers, though, you're already at one gram per pound or 2.2, then that pre-sleep additional protein may or probably won't add any additional to just leukocyte, the muscle protein.

Did I summarize that?
