A brief introduction to the importance of proteins in the diet and exactly what this may mean to you in terms of your training and nutrition goals.

Measuring the Quality and Digestion Affects of Different Proteins
Obtaining enough protein is of great importance in order to see results from your training, however not all proteins are created equally and there are ways to measure the bio-availability of proteins that you digest.

Amino Acids
Proteins are constructed from varying collections of amino acids. So what exactly are amino acids and how are they important o you?

Whey Proteins and Micellar Casein Proteins
In terms of quality proteins you will find the closest protein to human muscle tissue, with the highest bio-availabilty is whey protein. Whey protein has many, many nutritional benefits. Micellar Casein is another very important form of protein that can be extremely beneficial to your nutritional and training programs.

Proteins and the Glycaemic Index
How do proteins that you digest affect your blood sugar and why should you care so much?

Proteins and the Insulin Index
How do proteins affect the production of insulin by your pancreas? This is the most fascinating and important aspect to nutrition in order for you to achieve phenomenal results from your training efforts.

The Amino Acid Pool and Nitrogen Balance
What happens to the amino acids once you have digested them and how does your body take them and begin the muscle building sequence.

Designing Diets and the Correct Types and Quantities of Protein
How do you design a diet with protein in mind. The critical points to bare in mind with proteins.
