Vitality Radio Podcast with Jared St. Clair

On this episode of Vitality Radio, Jared breaks down amino acids—what they are, how they work in the body, and how to supplement them strategically for muscle health, recovery, fasting, metabolism, and healthy aging. He explains the difference between essential amino acids, branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs), collagen, protein powders, and whole-food protein, and clarifies when each one makes the most sense. Jared also walks through practical use cases, including workout performance, muscle preservation during fasting, age-related muscle loss, and supporting lean mass during calorie restriction—without hype! If protein goals, collagen, amino acids, or fasting protocols have been confusing, this episode delivers clear, practical guidance you can actually use.
