Absorption and Muscle-stimulating Effect of Hydrolyzed and Minced Beef

Not Applicable
Conditions
Protein Absorption and Amino Acid Availability
Muscle Protein Synthesis
Meat Protein Supplements
Registration Number
NCT02732353
Lead Sponsor
Kasper Dideriksen
Brief Summary

To measure the absorption kinetics and postprandial amino acid availability after ingestion of minced beef compared with hydrolyzed beef in young males. Moreover, the basal muscle protein synthesis and the postprandial muscle protein synthetic response to minced beef and hydrolyzed beef ingestion are measured in young males. The postprandial muscle protein synthetic response is measured and compared during the early postprandial period (0-3 hours) after ingestion of the two meat products.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in skeletal muscle protein fractional synthetic rateDuring the postprandial period (0-3 hrs).

The fractional synthetic rate of skeletal muscle proteins (%/h) measured during the overnight fasted state and the postprandial state.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Protein absorptionDuring the postprandial period (0-3 hrs).

The change in venous plasma ring-2H5-phenylalanine enrichment after ingestion of meat protein, reflects the protein absorption from the meat protein products.

Plasma amino acid concentrationDuring the postprandial period (0-3 hrs).

Change in venous plasma amino acid concentration after ingestion of meat protein.
