The title says it all. No matter what you're doing, or how much powder you're drinking, we're still pretty sure you're still not getting all the protein you should be.
Stuart Phillips is a Professor in the Department of Kinesiology and a Tier 1 Canada Research Chair in Skeletal Muscle Health. He is also the Director of the Physical Activity Centre of Excellence (PACE) and the McMaster Centre for Nutrition, Exercise, and Health Research, and Lab Lead for the Exercise Metabolism Research Group. Stuart's research is focused on the impact of nutrition and exercise on human skeletal muscle protein turnover.
He chats with Dr. Pam about when to get that protein in your meals, why eggs are back on the good list, the best kinds of proteins, and what you risk when you don't get enough.

Stuart Phillips is a Professor in the Department of Kinesiology and a Tier 1 Canada
Research Chair in Skeletal Muscle Health. He is the Director of the Physical Activity Centre
of Excellence (PACE) and the McMaster Centre for Nutrition, Exercise, and Health Research,
and Lab Lead for the Exercise Metabolism Research Group. Stuart's research is focused on
the impact of nutrition and exercise on human skeletal muscle protein turnover. He is
keenly interested in diet- and exercise-induced changes in body composition. Stuart
believes that a little bit of exercise is better than no exercise, and aims to encourage more
physical activity in older adults. He has more than 24,000 career citations, and 220 original
scientific research and review papers.
