NCT03326284 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 40

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The primary aim of the trial is to determine the optimal dose of protein per meal in relation to enhancing muscle protein synthesis and thereby in perspective counteract muscle loss during weight loss. In addition, we aim to determine whether the response to protein intake is reduced in women on hypocaloric diet compared to in women on an energy-balanced diet.

Conditions

  • Protein Metabolism

Interventions

OTHER

15 g protein hypocaloric

Following a 5 day hypocaloric diet one group of 10 women will ingest 15 g of protein

OTHER

35 g protein hypocaloric

Following a 5 day hypocaloric diet one group of 10 women will ingest 35 g of protein

OTHER

60 g protein hypocaloric

Following a 5 day hypocaloric diet one group of 10 women will ingest 60 g of protein

OTHER

35 g protein energy balance

Following a 5 day energy balanced diet one group of 10 women will ingest 35 g of protein
