Should I eat protein before or after intense exercise? Scientific research has given the answer to this question.
Use belkovosoderzhaschih products (including special protein shakes ) After training can help to strengthen the processes of formation muscle , In both young and elderly men. This is the conclusion of Dutch researchers from the Medical Center at the University of Maastricht, led by Dr. Luc van Loon.
They conducted a study of 48 men, half of whom were over 20, and the second half of the 70. It was found that in both groups the use of protein drinks, protein shakes after exercise resulted in a greater increase in muscle proteins as compared with those who consumed these drinks before classes begin or after the holiday.
But what is even more curious, increased muscle protein occurred at about the same pace as in young and elderly men. This was reported in the journal American Journal of Clinical Nutrition. This suggests that an older age does not affect the capability of the body to digest the protein and release of the food products.
True, this study has several limitations. First, not too large number of participants, and secondly, scientists monitor changes muscle for a long period of time, they were interested only in short-term changes in the level of the protein in muscle tissues after drinking and protein shakes . So rather difficult to assume what exactly is good and young and elderly men derive if they consume protein after exercise.
