A single session of resistance exercise stimulates muscle protein synthesis. Over time, resistance training can result in muscle mass gains.
Protein intake also stimulates muscle protein synthesis (Trommelen, 2020). Therefore, protein intake can further improve training-induced muscle mass gains.
Milk contains both whey and micellar casein protein (~20 and 80 % of total protein content, respectively). Whey is a fast digesting protein. In contrast, micellar casein is a slow digesting protein (Gorissen et al, 2020).
Micellar casein clots in the stomach due to the acidic environment and the presence of pepsin. However, the micellar casein structure can also be intentionally disrupted by various food processing techniques, resulting in food products such as cheese and yoghurt.

Should all research be monitored?
I recently published my first study that was monitored by an independent monitoring agency.
