Brief summary
Hydrolysis of dietary protein may impact their gastrointestinal kinetics and further metabolism. The primary goal of this work was to measure the metabolic fate of intact or hydrolyzed protein using a protein of good nutritional quality, i.e., casein. A second aim of this study was to assess the true ileal digestibility of dietary protein using different methods including the hydrolyzed casein method and to measure its possible effect on endogenous intestinal N losses in humans.
Interventions
Subjects are studied for 8h following the ingestion of a standard meal containing 15% of energy as protein. Intestinal, blood and urine are collected at regular intervals.
standard mixed meal containing 15% of energy as 15N-labelled intact casein
standard mixed meal containing 15% of energy as 15N-labelled hydrolyzed casein
standard mixed meal containing 15% of energy as a mixture of AA mimicking the composition of casein but devoid in serine
