Welcome to the Dr. Gabriel Line Show. In today's episode, I sit down with nutritional

physiologist Dr. Jess Gwen. She has an amazing pedigree of experience. She currently works

in the military and she teaches us all about muscle physiology. She talks about the practical application of dietary patterns,

including protein, how it impacts sleep, performance, all things related to health and wellness.

What makes her research so interesting is that it is translatable to humans.

She looks at real humans. She helps with intervention studies. And this episode will be very

interesting because it's laid out clearly actionable steps for you to do to take current

research into your real life.

Dr. Jess Quinn, welcome to the podcast. I am really excited to have this conversation.

You are a whiz on all things, protein,

essential amino acids. And I first heard about you through our mutual friend, Dr. Nick Beringer,

Ranger, Ranger, Dietitian. Welcome to the show. Thank you. I'm so excited to be here.

I love talking about all things, protein. It's really been a huge part of my life for the past decade. So it's a pleasure to be here. Thank you.

Yes, certainly. And I would love for you to catch us up to speed. I know that you have worked very closely with someone named Dr. Heather Lydie. She is truly extraordinary. Her work, the contribution of her work

really is, I mean, it's multifactorial, but really this idea of protein, protein first, protein

effect on the brain. But before we talk about all that, just catch us up to speed a little bit about

where you've come from

and what you're doing. Absolutely. So I'll just start from the beginning and the origin story

really does start with Heather. But a few years before that, I really found this interest in nutrition

and exercise science. I was a former athlete at the University of Missouri. And at that time, I was really just interested in how do I improve my performance?
