Summary

Episode 116: Professer Kevin Tipton from the University of Stirling discusses nutritional interventions for injured athletes, protein intakes, and the importance of protein timing and distribution for maximal anabolic response.

Kevin Tipton is a Professor of Sport, Health and Exercise Science at the University of Stirling. His postdoctoral work was under the supervision of Professor Robert Wolfe at UTMB.

Kevin's research focuses on exercise, nutrition and muscle metabolism in humans with emphasis on protein nutrition and metabolism in athletes, vulnerable populations, e.g. obese, elderly, and healthy volunteers. He has published over 50 papers in peer-reviewed journals and book chapters and has been invited to speak at numerous international and national conferences.

He is an Associate Editor for Applied Physiology, Nutrition and Metabolism and serves on the Editorial Board of the International Journal of Sports Nutrition and Exercise Metabolism. He recently served on the National Academy of Science’s, Institute of Medicine, Committee for Military Nutrition Research.

His interest in exercise science extends to the application of the science to athletic populations. He was the Sports Nutrition adviser for the Athletic Department at Auburn University and recently served as a Visiting Scientist at the Australian Institute of Sport in the Department of Sports Nutrition, for the International Olympic Committee on the IOC Sports Nutrition Consensus Conference committee, the FIFA and IAAF Sports Nutrition Consensus Conference committees and the UK Sport Nutritional Supplements Advisory Board. He also has coached and served as fitness and nutrition advisor for amateur soccer and rugby clubs.

0:00.0	That in those days, that's what bodybuilders always wanted to do.
0:09.0	They wanted to get constant protein meals to keep their amino acid levels in their blood high.
0:14.0	But what Mike showed in this study, after a while, the protein census goes down despite the fact that the amino acid level stay up in the blood.
0:21.6	So from that standpoint, it argues for having a meal, waiting a bit, having another meal,
0:27.6	to, if I were a nutritious worker with an athlete, I would not go, oh, you're a runner?
0:33.6	Well, let me look, okay, there it is, it says in this paper 1.5 grams per kilo. I would work out individually for that person, the macronut listening to episode 116 today. For those you newcomers to show, then what you can expect
1:15.1	from this podcast every week is in-depth discussions with some of the brightest minds involved in
1:22.1	nutrition and performance research or those involved in promoting evidence-based practice and doing that as practitioners.
1:30.2	So if that's something that you're into, then make sure you hit subscribe on your podcast app right now
1:35.3	so that you do keep up to date with the show and you will get through each new episode as it
1:40.0	comes along. So on today's show, we're going to be talking with Professor Kevin Tipton,
1:45.1	who is part of the Sport Health and Exercise Science Department at the University of Sterling.
1:50.9	And really, one of the true heavyweight researchers in this field. His work primarily focuses on
1:58.1	exercise, nutrition and muscle metabolism in humans, with particular emphasis
2:03.0	on protein nutrition and protein metabolism within athletes, as well as vulnerable populations
2:09.3	like the elderly or obese populations as well. And I hope you enjoy this episode. Remember,
2:15.2	you can get the show notes to this particular episode over at sigmanutrition.com
2:20.0	slash episode one-16.
2:23.0	And there I will link up to any research papers that get mentioned throughout today's episode
2:27.6	and all of the other good stuff, including where you can find Professor Tipton on social media.
