BONUS: Preserving Muscle During Weight Loss with Angelo Keely | Menopause, Perimenopause, Muscle Health
Everyday Wellness: Midlife Hormones, Menopause, and Science for Women 35+
I’m excited to share another episode in our series of highly vetted companies.
Today, I’m delighted to reconnect with Angelo Keely, the Co-founder and CEO of Kion, for our third conversation.
I’ve been using essential aminos. I really leaned into them during my book launch, and I credit them with helping me maintain my muscle mass despite training at a lower volume.
In today’s conversation, Angelo and I discuss GLP-1s and muscle loss, exploring protein intake, the leucine threshold hypothesis, the association between declining estrogen and blunted muscle protein synthesis, and using essential aminos to build and maintain muscle. We unpack the role of sleep and recovery for muscle health, daily versus as-needed creatine monohydrate and essential amino acid supplementation, what omega-3s are, why they matter, and how to supplement. We also cover midlife women's body composition, weight loss, and muscle building, and Angelo shares his take on the disconnect between body composition changes in midlife women and how companies actively market to midlife women, knowing the challenges we face in that area.
Stay tuned for today’s insightful and informative discussion with Angelo Keely of Kion.
IN THIS EPISODE, YOU WILL LEARN:
How caloric restriction leads to fat loss but can also cause the body to break down muscle
How essential aminos can help preserve our muscles as we age
The essential amino formula Angelo recommends for midlife women
Hormone changes may affect muscle protein synthesis
The huge impact poor sleep has on whole-body protein synthesis
Essential aminos vs. whey protein and how they differ
Value of essential aminos for maintaining muscle during caloric deficits
How aminos and creatine both need to be taken consistently, but for different physiological reasons
What to look for when choosing a quality omega-3 supplement
How to make daily supplementation easier to maintain
