It is of critical importance, therefore, that humans of all ages and physiological states receive adequate protein in their diets, especially to meet the daily requirement for the dietary indispensable amino acids (IAAs). Different proteins supply different amounts of the IAAs, and commonly, several...
Observational studies provide evidence that a higher intake of protein from plant-based foods and certain animal-based foods is associated with a lower risk for type 2 diabetes (T2DM). However, there are few distinguishable differences between the glucoregulatory qualities of the proteins in plant-...
Rapidly digested, leucine-enriched proteins such as whey appear to be especially effective in the stimulation of MPS. Ingestion of protein immediately after exercise is necessary to maximize post-exercise MPS, although repeated ingestion of moderate doses at regular intervals throughout the day as ...

There is growing appreciation that successful foraging is not simply about the quantity of food consumed, but also about food quality, as animals seek to attain species-specific macronutrient intake targets. Of the various macronutrients, protein is of primary importance, and its acquisition is ...
Effects of dietary intervention on IGF-I and IGF-binding proteins, and related alterations in sex steroid metabolism: the Diet and Androgens (DIANA) Random... To assess the effects of a comprehensive change in dietary composition on endogenous hormone metabolism. The specific aim was to examine ...

Intestinal surface changes in size and function, but what propels these alterations and what are their metabolic consequences is unknown. Here we report that the food amount is a positive determinant of the gut surface area contributing to an increased a
In the report on “healthy diet,” the World Health Organization (WHO) emphasizes the importance of a healthy diet and physical exercise (World Health Organization, 2019). Unhealthy eating increases health risks, for example, type-2 diabetes, asthma, cardiovascular diseases, etc., and causes a ...
Protein source: whey vs casein Boirie 199759 The speed of protein digestion and amino acid absorption from the gut had a major effect on whole body protein anabolism after one single meal. “Slow” and “fast” proteins thus modulate the postprandial metabolic response. Dangin 200260 A“fast”...
