Dairy and Plant Amino Acid Uptake. An Explorative Study

NCT05813769 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 12

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

To optimize the environmental sustainability, a protein transition to more plant-based protein sources is required. However, the protein quality of plant-based sources is lower than that of the dairy proteins casein and whey, which contain high levels of essential amino acids. The amino acid absorption characteristics of many plant-based proteins are unknown.

The present study aims to estimate differences in postprandial plasma total essential amino acids (TEAA) profiles after protein consumption of different protein sources in blood of healthy participants. This explorative study has a randomized, cross-over, double-blind, controlled design.
