The best eating time of muscle-building powder;
Muscle powder is recommended to be supplemented after getting up and after training. Carbohydrate matrix in muscle-building powder can quickly increase insulin, push more nutrients in muscle-building powder to muscles and help muscle synthesis. It is not recommended to use muscle building powder before going to bed. Because of its high calorie, promoting insulin secretion will increase the accumulation of fat and sometimes affect sleep.
Many people are used to comparing muscle gain powder with fat, but it is not. The correct use of muscle-increasing powder will not only increase fat, but also make muscle gain twice the result with half the effort.
Extended data:
Taking protein powder supplements for a long time may be unhealthy.
Muscle-strengthening protein powder is rich in branched-chain amino acids. Branched-chain amino acids are three common amino acids in protein, namely leucine, valine and isoleucine, which help to increase muscle mass. The researchers fed the experimental mice twice the normal intake of branched-chain amino acids for life, and fed the control mice a normal diet with high carbohydrate and low fat.
The results showed that the level of branched-chain amino acids in the blood of mice in the experimental group was high, which affected the function of tryptophan in the blood and led to the decrease of tryptophan transported to the brain, thus making the level of serotonin in the brain lower than the normal level. Tryptophan is a precursor of serotonin, which is called a happy hormone and can improve mood. A decrease in serotonin levels in the brain will increase appetite.
Excessive intake of branched-chain amino acids leads to the decrease of serotonin level, which leads to overeating, extreme obesity and shortened life span in mice. Therefore, it is suggested that protein from different sources should be balanced in daily diet to avoid "adverse consequences" to health.
