Summary

To evaluate the validity of a continuous oral sip-feeding method of stable isotope tracer for the evaluation of whole-body protein metabolism in response to two different doses of an EAA/whey protein supplement (Low=6.3g and High=12.6g). Results will be compared to those previously determined by constant infusion with the same EAA/whey supplement.

Conditions

  • Healthy

Interventions

OTHER

Oral amino acid tracer

Whole body protein metabolism response to a dose of the supplement will be measured using a continuous oral sip-feeding (every 10 minutes) method of stable isotope tracer.
