No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The investigators determined effects of 8-week dietary protein intake in mixed meals with uneven or even consumption pattern on the metabolic outcomes of whole-body net protein synthesis and muscle protein synthesis in older participants.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

Uneven Protein intake pattern

Each participant will consume 15%/2-%/65% of total protein in breakfast, lunch, and dinner, respectively)\] on net protein synthesis over 8 weeks.

OTHER

Even Protein Intake Pattern

Each participant will consume 33% of total protein consumed each meal
