Treatment with brefeldin A (BFA) reduces lipid oxidation in cells from lean and T2D individuals, but not in active participants.
BFA may be a useful tool for studying lipid metabolism, but its effects vary significantly among different metabolic states.

- Athletes aiming to reduce fat mass and preserve FFM should consume protein intakes in the range of ∼1.8-2.7 g kg(-1) d(-1).Strong
- A minimum daily protein intake of ≥1.6 g/kg is necessary to observe significant improvements in muscle mass from whey protein supplementation.Strong
- Most athletes ideally need 1.2 to 2.0 grams/kg of body weight/day of protein, preferably split across 3-4 meals.Strong
