About this listen
Many people respond to aging by eating healthier and increasing protein intake, yet strength and recovery still decline. Why?
In this solo “Explained” episode, Anita breaks down a key concept in muscle biology called anabolic resistance. Muscle is not maintained simply because amino acids are present. It is maintained when the body receives a signal to repair and rebuild tissue.
You will learn why muscle cells require an activation signal, why that signal weakens with age, and why adding more protein alone often fails to stop muscle loss.
Understanding this difference between material and signaling changes how we think about aging, resilience, and long term health.
