Conditions

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Protein drink - low dosage

The subjects will consume 500 mL of a protein drink containing 25 g protein (lupin protein or reference protein) per day over eight weeks each. After a one-week run-in period, each volunteer has to pass both protein-periods in different order with a four-week wash out period in between.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Protein drink - high dosage

The subjects will consume 500 mL of a protein drink containing 40 g protein (lupin protein or reference protein) per day over eight weeks each. After a one-week run-in period, each volunteer has to pass both protein-periods in different order with a four-week wash out period in between.
