Summary

Plant-based proteins contain several amino acids that are essential to signal growth, reconditioning, maintenance and preservation of skeletal muscle mass. This study aims to inform on the nutrient activation of muscle protein synthesis (MPS) by feeding a plant protein isolate equivalent to 0.33 g of protein per kilogram of body mass.
