Start your day strong—with the right amount of protein. Research consistently shows that hitting a leucine threshold of ~2.5 grams (found in 30-50g of high-quality protein) is critical to stimulating muscle protein synthesis (MPS). This is especially important for optimizing skeletal muscle health and body composition over time. 💪 And your first meal of the day sets the tone - adequate protein intake in the morning is essential to maximize MPS and support overall metabolic health. 👉 Practical tip: Aim for 30-50g of protein in your first meal. Think eggs, Greek yogurt, protein shakes or smoothies, or lean meats. Prioritize this for better strength, muscle maintenance, and metabolic resilience. What’s your go-to high-protein breakfast?
