Show notes

We have another episode in our series of sponsored podcasts today, with brands I like, know, and trust. I am delighted to reconnect with Angelo Keely, the founder and CEO of Kion, a supplement company that focuses on helping people look good, feel young, and be strong. In our discussion today, Angelo explains essential aminos, highlighting their importance and clarifying how to differentiate between various protein powders and other forms of protein. We explore the significance of bioavailability, anabolic resistance, and changes in body composition, discussing how protein needs increase with age and how dieting and caloric restriction can augment our protein requirements. We also cover the results of intermittent fasting, examining how sleep, stress, and lifestyle requirements can change with menopause. I regularly take Kion essential amino acids.
