Animal and Microbial-based Dietary Protein Efficiency in Adults

NCT07148908 · Status: RECRUITING · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 13

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Given the relatively high carbon footprint and sustainability of animal-based proteins, there is a growing interest in determining the nutritional quality non-animal-based protein sources. The overall objective of this investigation is to examine the impact of different animal and microbial-based protein sources to support whole body protein synthesis in adults. To do this, investigators will employ a 'breath test' method developed in our laboratory as well as urine sampling. The results of this study will allow us to better understand the impact of dietary protein quality for maintaining health and body protein mass in adults.
