Andy Galpin: 我对Michael Ormsbee博士关于睡前营养的研究印象深刻,这项研究持续了15年以上,但鲜为人知。这项研究表明,睡前摄入特定食物对睡眠、恢复和多种其他方面都有益,这与大多数人的普遍认知相悖。 Michael Ormsbee: 我将分享睡前营养补充剂的研究历程。最初的研究主要关注大餐对新陈代谢的影响,结果显示睡前摄入高热量食物会降低新陈代谢率。然而,我们发现睡前摄入少量蛋白质(约40克,少于220卡路里)对新陈代谢率的影响并不显著,甚至可能会有益。 我们通过一系列研究,包括对不同人群(年轻男性、超重女性、肥胖女性)的研究,以及使用微透析技术直接测量脂肪分解,发现睡前摄入少量蛋白质不会影响脂肪分解速率。 此外,我们还发现,睡前摄入蛋白质可以促进肌肉蛋白合成,提高运动后的恢复能力,并有助于达到每日蛋白质摄入目标。一项为期12周的研究显示,睡前摄入蛋白质和碳水化合物的组合,可以提高肌肉横截面积和力量。 我们还研究了不同类型的蛋白质(乳清蛋白、酪蛋白、植物蛋白)以及全食物与补充剂的比较,发现蛋白质类型和食物形式对结果的影响并不显著。 年龄和性别对睡前补充蛋白质的益处影响也不大。我们发现,睡前摄入少量易消化的食物(例如蛋白质奶昔)不会影响睡眠质量,甚至可能改善睡眠质量和次日晨起时的困倦感。 我们正在进行一项新的研究,以确定睡前摄入食物的热量阈值以及食物质量对睡眠和新陈代谢的影响。我们还研究了α-乳清蛋白作为一种新型睡前补充剂的潜力。 总的来说,睡前摄入营养补充剂的主要益处在于提供额外的蛋白质摄入机会,有助于达到每日蛋白质目标,并可能改善运动后的恢复能力。虽然对脂肪代谢和睡眠质量的影响可能因人而异,但总的来说,睡前摄入少量易消化的蛋白质不会对健康造成损害,甚至可能带来益处。

  • Challenges of maintaining muscle mass during weight loss.

Shownotes Transcript

My guest is Dr. Michael Ormsbee, Ph.D.), a professor of nutrition and integrative physiology and the director of the Institute of Sports Sciences and Medicine at Florida State University. We explore how pre-sleep nutrition affects fat metabolism, muscle growth, performance, and recovery, while helping individuals meet their daily protein goals without causing weight gain. We discuss what to eat at night, including different protein sources—whey, casein, and plant-based proteins—or carbohydrates, and explain whether whole foods or supplements are more beneficial.

Additionally, we highlight the importance of resistance training and sufficient protein intake for long-term weight loss success and how collagen supplementation may reduce joint pain. We also examine the potential benefits of lesser-known supplements, including betaine, theacrine, and butyrate postbiotics. Whether you’re an athlete or simply looking to improve your health, listeners will learn how to optimize nutrition for enhanced performance, recovery, and weight management.
