Leucine Resistance Training Muscle Protein Synthesis Randomized TrialLarge prospective cohort studies consistently report that higher intakes of plant-based proteins are associated with lower cardiovascular and all-cause mortality, whereas higher consumption of certain animal-based protein sources—particularly processed red meat—is linked to adverse health outcomes [,,,,,].3Cannito Teresa (2026)Sustaining Muscle, Cardiovascular Health, and the Environment: Is Plant-Based Protein the Key?
Leucine Resistance Training Muscle Protein Synthesis Randomized TrialIn contrast, many plant-based proteins exhibit lower digestibility (~50–75%) and less optimal amino acid profiles, although these limitations can be mitigated through strategies such as protein blending, fortification, and increased intake [,,].3Cannito Teresa (2026)Sustaining Muscle, Cardiovascular Health, and the Environment: Is Plant-Based Protein the Key?
Leucine Resistance Training Muscle Protein Synthesis Randomized TrialAt the molecular level, anabolic resistance reflects impaired translation initiation (e.g., reduced mTORC1 signaling), diminished muscle perfusion and altered amino acid transport and intracellular sensing.3Cannito Teresa (2026)Sustaining Muscle, Cardiovascular Health, and the Environment: Is Plant-Based Protein the Key?
