Protein is crucial for muscle health as muscles are made of protein. Creatine serves as an energy source for muscles, but its production can deplete the body's methylation capacity, essential for various bodily functions. Supplementing with creatine can ensure ample supply for muscle growth. The recommended creatine intake is around five grams daily. Additionally, consuming sufficient protein is essential, while supporting mitochondria function with B vitamins, antioxidants, co-enzyme Q10, and magnesium is vital for muscle health. Magnesium deficiency is common and can lead to muscle tightness. Peptides can also aid in muscle growth, and testosterone may be beneficial for men seeking muscle support.
In this episode, Peter and Helen discuss the critical role of exercise in promoting longevity and optimal health. If one had to choose a single most impactful lifestyle pillar for longevity, it would be exercise.
