High protein dietAnabolic resistanceProtein turnoverSarcopeniaAgingSupplementation with whey and other dietary protein, mainly associated with exercise training, has been proposed to be beneficial for the elderly to gain and maintain lean body mass and improve health parameters. The main objective of ...
Morais 200666 1.0–1.3 g/kg BW/d Data from published nitrogen balance studies indicate that a higher protein intake of 1.0–1.3 g/k/d is required to maintain nitrogen balance in the healthy elderly, which may be explained by their lower energy intake and impaired insulin action during feeding...
The elderly Aging appears to disrupt net protein balance (muscle protein synthesis equals muscle protein breakdown) in adults, blunting the muscle protein synthesis response to anabolic stimuli, including exercise and dietary protein intake. This phenomenon is known as age-related anabolic resistance [29...
than was an even pattern.After a controlled period, 15 elderly women (mean age: 68 y) were fed for 14 d either a pulse diet (n = 7), providing 80% of the daily protein intake at 1200, or a spread diet (n = 8), in which the same daily protein intake was spread over 4 meals...
To determine whether the kinetics of protein metabolism would differ with the prolonged use of a casein-soy 96 g protein, 1.7MJ/d very low energy diet (VLED) from those of a tryptophan- and methionine-supplemented hydrolyzed collagen VLED, in obesity. Clinical intervention study of 1 week is...
DietNutrition SurveysNutritional RequirementsAgedMiddle AgedFemaleMaleProtein-calorie malnutrition, common among the elderly, often escapes recognition. This article reviews some of the etiologic factors and the clinical manifestations. Ways to assess and prevent protein-calorie malnutrition are also discussed....
One of the most critical problems that elderly people are facing is the gradual loss of free fat and muscle mass, which they leading to sarcopenia, with negative influence in their life's quality. Today, it is well documented that protein intake can leads to the increase of muscle mass, wh...
1.2 Proteins and Their Role in Food and Diet Proteins are vital for life, essentially found in all living organisms, and are an important nutrient that is required for critical functions in the cell, tissues, organs, and systems. Our food is derived from animal and plant tissues, thus by ...
