What does living a longer, healthier, and more fulfilling life mean to you? How can you achieve that goal and does achieving that goal start the same for everyone? Per usual there is an abundance of information out that can be highly contradictory to each other and there is also a lot of narrative and research even showing results that are based on ulterior motives. Is it better to follow the research that says go vegetarian because animal proteins are not good for humans? Could it be better to stick with data that supports high quality proteins from an animal based diet? Dr. Gabrielle Lyon is joining Tom for another informative conversation about how transparent conversations, research and data need to be shared to better inform people about the best ways to protect muscle and thus achieve longer, healthier, more fulfilling high-quality lives. Being focused on strength and the functionality of muscles and what is required to maintain and build healthy muscle is a must for anyone thinking about longevity.\n\nSHOW NOTES:\n0:00 | Introduction to Gabrielle Union\n2:44 | Burning Muscle for Fuel\n9:58 | Essential Amino Acids\n11:55 | Why It\u2019s Hard To Build Muscle\n14:21 | Nurturing Efficient Muscle Growth\n19:05 | Debunking Longevity & Low Protein\n23:58 | Skeletal Muscle Principles 101\n29:24 | Harmful Anti-Animal Dogma\n32:58 | The Metabolic Disease Connection\n34:19 | Define Longevity & Quality of Life\n38:07 | Start Training to Stress the Body\n\nFollow Gabrielle Lyon:\nWebsite: https://drgabriellelyon.com/\nYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCWPQJeWz4pvccA3lIoZ7j1Q\nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/drgabriellelyon/\nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/doctorgabriellelyon/\n\nCheck out our sponsors:\nBLUblox: Go to blublox.com/impacttheory for 15% off your order or use discount code ImpactTheory at checkout.\nOmbre: Visit tryombre.com/TomBilyeu to get $30 off an at-home gut health test.\nAthletic Greens: Go to athleticgreens.com/impact and receive a FREE 1 year supply of Vitamin D AND 5 free travel packs with your first purchase!\nTextExpander: Go to textexpander.com/podcast and get 20% off your first year\n\nAre You Ready for EXTRA Impact?\nIf you\u2019re ready to find true fulfillment, strengthen your focus, and ignite your true potential, the Impact Theory subscription was created just for you.\nWant to transform your health, sharpen your mindset, improve your relationship, or conquer the business world?
