➡️ Next steps: The source and quality of protein may be important for muscle remodeling with very low protein diets, particularly in clinical scenarios 🏥

➡️ Resistance exercise every other day increased muscle anabolism by over 10% and is the key driver for muscle growth in aging populations. Stay active, stay strong, and focus on training first! 🏋️‍♂️

➡️ Consuming 1.0g/kg/day of protein from predominantly plant or animal sources had little influence on muscle anabolism, or markers of metabolic and renal health 🌱 🥛
