Journal Article
Smith, K., Watson, A. W., Lonnie, M., Peeters, W. M., Oonincx, D., Tsoutsoura, N., Simon-Miquel, G., Szepe, K., Cochetel, N., Pearson, A. G., Witard, O. C., Salter, A. M., Bennett, M., & Corfe, B. M. (2024). Meeting the global protein supply requirements of a growing and ageing population. European Journal of Nutrition, 63(5), 1425–1433. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00394-024-03358-2

Human dietary patterns are a major cause of environmental transformation, with agriculture occupying ~ 50% of global land space, while food production itself is responsible for ~ 30% of all greenhouse gas emissions and 70% of freshwater use.

Milk protein ingestion does not enhance recovery from muscle-damaging resistance exercise in untrained males and females: a randomized controlled trial (2023)
Journal Article
Pearson, A. G., Macnaughton, L. S., & Hind, K. (2023). Milk protein ingestion does not enhance recovery from muscle-damaging resistance exercise in untrained males and females: a randomized controlled trial. Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism, 48(6), 455-468. https://doi.org/10.1139/apnm-2022-0385

Milk-based proteins are a common choice of post-exercise nutrition to enhance exercise recovery and adaptation. Periexercise milk protein ingestion may attenuate exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD), which is a particular risk to untrained individua...

The impact of dietary protein supplementation on recovery from resistance exercise-induced muscle damage: A systematic review with meta-analysis (2022)
Journal Article
Pearson, A. G., Hind, K., & Macnaughton, L. S. (2023). The impact of dietary protein supplementation on recovery from resistance exercise-induced muscle damage: A systematic review with meta-analysis. European Journal of Clinical Nutrition, 77, 767–783. https://doi.org/10.1038/s41430-022-01250-y

Background It is unknown whether dietary protein consumption can attenuate resistance exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD). Managing EIMD may accelerate muscle recovery and allow frequent, high-quality exercise to promote muscle adaptations. This sy...

Precision of the GE Lunar total body-less head scan for the measurement of three-compartment body composition in athletes (2022)
Journal Article
Jones, W., Pearson, A., Glassbrook, D., Slater, G., Dodd-Reynolds, C., & Hind, K. (2022). Precision of the GE Lunar total body-less head scan for the measurement of three-compartment body composition in athletes. Journal of Clinical Densitometry, 25, 692-698. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jocd.2022.08.008

Dual energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) is widely used for the assessment of lean mass (LM), fat mass (FM) and bone mineral content (BMC). When observing standardised protocols, DXA has a high level of precision for the assessment of total body compos...

Sex differences in the impact of resistance exercise load on muscle damage: A protocol for a randomised parallel group trial (2022)
Journal Article
Pearson, A. G., Macnaughton, L. S., & Hind, K. (2022). Sex differences in the impact of resistance exercise load on muscle damage: A protocol for a randomised parallel group trial. PLoS ONE, 17(9), https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0275221

Introduction Resistance training can induce skeletal muscle hypertrophy and strength gains, but is also associated with acute muscle damage, characterised by muscle soreness, impaired muscle function, and structural damage to muscle cell membranes an...

A hypoenergetic diet with decreased protein intake does not reduce lean body mass in trained females (2021)
Journal Article
Pearson, A. G., Alexander, L., Witard, O. C., Coughlin, T. E., Tipton, K. D., & Walshe, I. H. (2021). A hypoenergetic diet with decreased protein intake does not reduce lean body mass in trained females. European Journal of Applied Physiology, 121(3), 771-781. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00421-020-04555-7

Purpose Increasing protein intake during energy restriction (ER) attenuates lean body mass (LBM) loss in trained males. However, whether this relationship exists in trained females is unknown. This study examined the impact of higher compared to lowe... Read More about A hypoenergetic diet with decreased protein intake does not reduce lean body mass in trained females.
