Your Muscles Are Vanishing—Missing This One Food | Andrew Huberman
UNITED STATES Are your muscles slowly disappearing — no matter how much protein you eat or how active you are? The real reason might surprise you. In this science-backed video, we explore the one food group most people over 50 are dramatically under-consuming — and how it could be the missing key to maintaining strength, energy, focus, and resilience as you age. Backed by cutting-edge research in muscle physiology, nutrition, and neuroscience, you’ll learn how anabolic resistance works, how to activate muscle-building pathways with the right type of protein, and why timing your intake is critical. Plus, I’ll give you simple, practical tools to rebuild strength at any age. Whether you're in your 40s, 60s, or 70s — this isn’t just about muscle. It’s about protecting your independence, improving brain health, and regaining momentum in your life. Let’s rebuild — starting with what’s on your plate. ⏱️ Timestamps: 00:00 – Why Muscle Loss Isn’t Just Aging 🧠 01:42 – The Crisis of Missing Muscle Foods 🍽️ 04:06 – Key Concepts We’ll Cover 📘 05:01 – Muscle Growth Needs Quality, Not Just Quantity ⚖️ 08:27 – Leucine, mTOR & Protein Bioavailability 🔬 12:04 – Anabolic Resistance Explained 🧱 15:10 – This Food’s Hormonal Power on Brain & Body 🧬 17:56 – Timing Your Protein for Maximum Repair ⏰ 20:41 – Daily Protocols to Rebuild Strength 🛠️ 23:15 – Final Takeaway: Start Signaling Growth Today 🚀 24:20 – Like, Comment & Subscribe to Grow With Us 🙌 muscle loss after 50, protein timing, best foods for muscle, how to prevent sarcopenia, anabolic resistance, high leucine foods, mTOR pathway, best protein sources, protein before bed, muscle building foods, aging and muscle loss, creatine for older adults, muscle and brain health, dopamine and diet, serotonin and protein, how to eat for strength, muscle meat benefits, complete protein, muscle over 60, how to rebuild muscle, Mind Mechanics, huberman sleep, andrew huberman sleep, andrew huberman on sleep, andrew huberman supplements, andrew huberman lab, Brain Wise, Stop wasting, casein protein before bed, do this before bed or your muscles will keep disappearing, do this before bed, #MuscleOver50 #ProteinScience #SarcopeniaFix #AnabolicResistance #mTORActivation #LeucinePower #EatForStrength #MuscleFoods #BrainAndBody #HealthyAging #RebuildMuscle #CreatineForSeniors #WholeBodyHealth #NutritionScience #MuscleGrowthTips #StrengthAtAnyAge #MusclePreservation #PerformanceNutrition #NeuroscienceTools #DailyProtocols #stopwasting #andrewhubermansleep #hubermansleep #andrewhubermanonsleep #andrewhubermansupplements #mindmechanics #andrehubermanlab, #casein protein before bed, #do this before bed or your muscles will keep disappearing, #do this before bed ⚠️ Disclaimer: This video is for informational and educational purposes only.
