Best timing to consume proteins for muscles health

Championing Chrononutrition with Protein, the Morning Elixir for Muscle Growth

Researchers find the best time to consume proteins for building and strengthening muscles is during breakfast

Proteins are essential for body growth and muscle building. However, protein metabolism varies depending on the body’s internal biological clock. Therefore, it is important to know how distribution of protein intake over the day affects muscles. Researchers from Japan have now found that consumption of proteins at breakfast increases muscle size and function in mice and humans, shedding light on the concept of ‘Chrononutrition’ that deals with the timing of diets to ensure organ health.

 Professor Shigenobu Shibata, recently endeavored to understand the effect of the distribution of protein intake through the day on muscles. 

Prof. Shibata is hopeful that the findings of their study will lead to a widespread modification in the current diet regime of most people across the Western and Asian countries, who traditionally consume low amounts of protein at breakfast. He therefore stresses, “For humans, in general, the protein intake at breakfast averages about 15 grams, which is less than what we consume at dinner, which is roughly 28 grams. Our findings strongly support changing this norm and consuming more protein at breakfast or morning snacking time.”

It seems, a simple change in our dietary regime can be our key to ensuring healthy muscles!
