In this powerhouse episode of the Optimal Protein Podcast, Vanessa Spina sits down with legendary muscle metabolism researcher Dr. Arny Ferrando for an in-depth masterclass on essential amino acids, protein timing, aging, anabolic resistance, and how to optimize muscle retention and fat loss—especially during menopause. Dr. Ferrando shares the latest research from his decades-long career at NASA, the University of Arkansas, and in collaboration with Dr. Robert Wolfe. He breaks down how muscle protein synthesis actually works, what drives anabolic resistance in aging and menopause, and why exercise and essential amino acids must be combined for optimal results. Vanessa and Dr. Ferrando also cover protein myths, high-protein diets, fat loss in older adults, and what new research is revealing about protein needs for women in midlife. Whether you’re trying to preserve muscle, lose fat, or simply optimize your health, this is a must-listen episode filled with actionable insights and science-backed strategies.

Debunking the 30g myth Animal vs. plant protein: what the research says about quality and calories Is high protein bad for kidneys? Dr. Ferrando debunks the myth Why total daily protein matters more than meal timing or distribution How to use protein and amino acids during injury, illness, or fat loss 🧠 Key Takeaway: To build and preserve muscle—especially in midlife and beyond—you need to combine resistance training with high-quality essential amino acid intake. Total daily protein intake is critical, and older adults often need more, not less. Don’t fear high-protein diets—embrace them intelligently to age strong, lean, and healthy. 💡 Mentioned in This Episode: Free High-Protein Keto Guide Get 20% off on the Tone LUX Crystal Red Light Therapy Mask or the Tone Device breath ketone analyzer at Ketogenicgirl.com with the code VANESSA Join the Community!
