In a study published in the June 2023 Journal of Nutrition, researchers from the University of Exeter in the UK compared groups of young people who ate either a high-protein omnivore diet or a mycoprotein-rich (that\u2019s from fungi), non-animal-derived diet, and concluded that \u201cresistance training increased lean mass in both groups by a similar magnitude.\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>This means that if you follow a meat-heavy lifestyle like keto, or adopt a vegan eating plan with lots of mushrooms, your results in the gym will be about the same.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>There are, however, additional benefits to eating more mushrooms. They are full of much needed vitamins, minerals, antioxidants and fibre. They are also low in salt, cholesterol and calories. That\u2019s good news for those seeking high performance in their sport while maintaining a lean physique. But you don\u2019t have to go to one of the \u201ceither\/or\u201d extremes \u2013 eating some meat, if you enjoy it, and adding more mushrooms to your plate, would work too.<\/p>\n<p><strong>As it turns out, serving <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/3QbMtX3\">Portobello Steaks with Spicy Chimichurri<\/a>\u00a0might just be the workout supplement you really need to achieve your lifestyle training goals.<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Click the link above for simple-to-prepare Portobello Steaks with Spicy Chimichurri, and visit the<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/31Tza3V\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"> SAMFA website<\/span><\/a> for recipes that combine both meat and mushrooms. <\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>DID YOU KNOW?
