Is Plant Protein Better For Muscle Growth & Longevity? | Simon J Hill (E014)

Описание: Simon J Hill (‪@TheProofWithSimonHill‬) spent years eating steak for every meal, but when he looked at the longevity research objectively, he couldn't ignore what the data was telling him about how we age.

In this episode, you'll hear why the healthiest diets share specific characteristics regardless of whether they're Mediterranean, pescatarian, or plant-based, the three biomarkers that predict metabolic disease better than expensive panels (including one that costs $40 and takes 30 seconds to measure), and why he draws a hard line at plant-exclusive eating despite knowing it might be easier to just eat less meat.
