Nutrition-Protein

The muscle damage initiates a repair process in which certain hormones, along with the macronutrient protein, synthesize new satellite cells, which are used to repair the damaged muscle fibers. In other words, the role of protein is to help repair tissues damaged by exercise.


The processes of muscle protein synthesis (MPS) and muscle protein breakdown (MPB) occur concurrently. This constant protein turnover allows the muscle fiber to change its protein structure if loading demands or diet changes.


Protein shakes aim to provide as much protein as food but with fewer calories. Some can even provide more protein than food. The idea is that replacing meals with protein shakes can improve weight loss and muscle gain.
