Are the current protein guidelines holding your progress back? 
In this episode of The Optimum Insiders, world-leading experts Professor Stuart Phillips (Leading Global Researcher in Muscle Health), Dr. Eric Helms (Leading Global Researcher in Strength & Physique Sports), Yu Liang (Team China Olympic Nutritionist), and Jeet Selal (Top Optimum Nutrition Influencer, South Asia), unpack the science behind protein recommendations - and why the RDA (0.8 g/kg) is just a baseline for survival, not optimal performance.

Discover how much protein you really need to support muscle growth, recovery, and body composition - whether you’re an athlete, active adult, or simply aiming to train smarter. Our experts explore:
• The difference between deficiency prevention vs. performance optimisation
• Why 1.2–2.2 g/kg may be the real sweet spot for active individuals
• Common myths about “too much protein” and kidney health
• Cultural insights on protein intake in China and India
• How to make evidence-based, practical choices for your goals
The noise stops now. Science backed insights - no myths, just facts!
