Exclusive Insights: Protein Science and Sports Nutrition

Join us for an exclusive deep dive into protein science with world-renowned experts Prof. Luc van Loon, Leigh Breen, and Graeme Close. This video presents their innovative protein strategies, presented at the 29th Annual Congress of the European College of Sport Science, for enhancing muscle recovery and performance and offers practical applications of the science.

Highlights Include:

• “In this symposium, I spoke about how the source and quality of the protein that we ingest can influence our muscle adaptive response to resistance exercise.” – Prof. Leigh Breen¹Professor of Translational Muscle Physiology and Director of the Metabolic and Molecular Physiology Group (MMPG), University of
  Birmingham
•  “The quality of a protein is defined by its capacity, the rate of digestion and absorption, as well as its amino acid composition.” – Prof. Luc van Loon²Professor of Physiology of Exercise and Nutrition and Head of
  M3-research group, Department of Human Biology, Maastricht
  University
•  “If I were to summarize today’s presentation, I’d do it around what we call the three Ts of sports nutrition: total, timing, and type. With emerging science around different types of protein having distinct advantages at various times of the day, we explored how we can manipulate the type of protein to maximize the benefits to training.” – Prof. Graeme Close ³Professor of Human Physiology, Liverpool John Moores University
  and Sports Nutrition Consultant
