Sports Nutrition Benefits of Gingerol----Part II Promote Protein Absorption----New trends in weight loss

2024-01-18

People who love fitness know the benefits of protein for muscle growth, so they pay special attention to the supplementation of this nutrient element in their daily fitness. Protein powder is the most commonly chosen protein supplement method for fitness people. But when eating protein powder, there is often a problem. I eat a lot of protein powder, but my muscles don't grow. Why is this?

What does protein absorption rate relate to?
1.The food itself
Protein type: The absorption rate of proteins from different sources varies. For example, the absorption rate of proteins from milk, meat and eggs is relatively high, reaching 97% to 98%, 92% to 94% and 98% respectively, while the absorption rate of proteins from rice and potatoes is relatively low, at 82% and 74% respectively.

Protein quality: The quality of protein, especially its amino acid composition, has an important influence on absorption rate. When the ratio of amino acids in protein is close to the body's needs, its absorption rate is usually higher.

2.Individual physiological factors
Digestive function: An individual's digestive function directly affects protein absorption. Poor digestion may lead to a decrease in protein absorption rate.
Age: Age is also a factor that affects protein absorption. Generally speaking, as we age, our digestive function gradually weakens, which affects the absorption rate of protein. However, there are also studies that show that as animals age, the digestibility of ingested protein also increases accordingly, but this mainly applies to animal studies and the specific effects on humans may be different.

3.Eating habits and lifestyle
Balanced diet: Partial or picky eating may lead to insufficient protein intake, thus affecting its absorption rate. Maintaining a balanced diet and consuming a variety of food sources can help improve protein absorption.
Intestinal health: Intestinal health is crucial to protein absorption. Problems such as intestinal flora imbalance and intestinal inflammation may affect protein absorption.
Exercise: Moderate exercise can promote intestinal peristalsis and help digestion and absorption of protein. However, excessive exercise may cause physical fatigue and affect absorption efficiency.

4.Other factors
Disease conditions: Certain disease conditions, such as liver disease, kidney disease, etc., may affect the absorption and utilization of protein.
Drug effects: Some drugs may interact with proteins and affect their absorption rate.

In summary, protein absorption rate is closely related to multiple factors, including the type and quality of protein in the food itself, individual physiological factors (such as digestive function and age), eating habits and lifestyle (such as balanced diet, intestinal health and exercise), disease status and drug effects. To improve protein absorption rate, it is necessary to consider these factors comprehensively and take corresponding measures to adjust and improve them.


Gingerol------the golden partner to promote protein digestion and absorption!

Gingerol improves digestion; Shorten the time food stays in the intestine
Most spices, except fenugreek and mustard, shortened the time food spent in the body. Gingerol, parsley, cumin, piperine, coriander, and asarum were particularly effective, decreasing food's residence time by 24-31%. Capsaicin, mint, onion, curcumin, and fennel also reduced food's residence time, though to a lesser degree (12-19%). Gingerol and other spices that speed food through the body do not compromise nutrient absorption, do not cause diarrhea, and do not increase stool volume. Their effects are more in the colon, where they can prevent bacterial overgrowth.

Gingerol promotes absorption and increases the secretion of pancreatic enzymes
Pancreatic juice is the most important digestive juice component for the human body to break down proteins. It contains trypsin and chymotrypsin, which can break down proteins very well. If the trypsin activity in the body is low, the protein is not fully absorbed, and the muscle synthesis rate will slow down. In addition, our intestinal permeability increases, and the protein is not completely broken down. These large molecular proteins will enter the blood, which may cause serious allergies. Curcumin, gingerol, capsaicin, piperine, ginger, mustard, fennel, coriander, garlic and onion can significantly increase the activity of trypsin. Among them, gingerol has the highest stimulation on the activity of trypsin in pancreatic juice, which is 133%.

In Summary:
1.The key to muscle growth lies in protein absorption rate;
2.Protein absorption rate is related to the type of protein we eat and our own digestion and absorption rate;
3.Gingerol can improve the digestion and absorption rate of human protein by promoting food digestion and trypsin activity.
