Vegan or meat protein? Does the type of protein we eat matter for muscle gain? This week we investigate how proteins and amino acids (the building blocks of proteins) are processed by our bodies. I speak with nutrition and protein experts Dr. Robert Hall and Dr. Justin Siegel about their research on this topic with the Periodic Table of Food Initiative. We also discuss what a global protein transition to plant-based proteins might do for the health of our planet and our bodies.
