Whole Body Protein Metabolism of a Whey/EAA Supplement Using Continuous Oral Stable Isotopes

Completed · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Healthy

In brief

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.
