In this eye-opening episode of the Optimal Protein Podcast, I’m joined by Dr. Chris Lockwood, PhD—a renowned sports nutrition scientist, industry expert, and former Editor-in-Chief of the International Society of Sports Nutrition Journal—to break down why not all protein is created equal. We dive deep into the Survive vs. Thrive paradigm, uncover how amino acids act as powerful metabolic signals, and explain the critical role of protein quality in fat loss, muscle gain, and long-term health.
