Most of us heard about mTOR by now and know it's a "factory" in our muscles important for growth, but did you know it doesn't just respond to protein and amino acids? How does mTOR turn on muscle production just from weight training alone? A big part of the answer is phosphatidic acid and today's episode reviews a study on supplementing with phosphatidic acid. The applications half of the episode has some reflections on research methodology. John always reviews the full text of every article, but to see the abstract of the study discussed, click here: http://www.jissn.com/content/pdf/1550-2783-10-S1-P13.pdf
