Plant vs. Animal – Which Protein Is Best...

Dr. Stephen Cabral
About this episode
Meat or Plants-does it really matter for muscle growth?
 
 
A brand-new study may flip the script on everything you thought you knew about protein and muscle building.
 
 
On today’s show, I’ll break down the latest research comparing plant and animal proteins—including what the data says about protein type, timing, and muscle growth. I’ll also share my clinical insights from decades of working with body transformation and wellness clients.
 
 
Join me on Cabral Concept 3400 to discover whether plant or animal protein comes out on top. Enjoy the episode—and let me know what you think!
