The Role of MTOR in the Body's Nutrient Processing
29:55 - 31:09 (01:14)
MTOR is responsible for sensing whether there are nutrients in the environment and deciding whether the body is catabolic or anabolic, therefore affecting various physiological functions such as fertility and muscle growth. This protein's role in regulating the body's response to nutrient availability is crucial, especially in times of food scarcity.

The activation of mTOR leads to muscle growth, but long-term activation of it can lead to cancer, while chronic suppression results in frailty.
24:30 - 25:46 (01:15)
Summary
The activation of mTOR leads to muscle growth, but long-term activation of it can lead to cancer, while chronic suppression results in frailty. To suppress mTOR and build muscle, one solution is to have a few hours of fasting before bed, workout and have coffee to suppress the protein.
