Healthy Resistance-Trained Males
Conditions
Brief summary
The study purpose is to assess various protein blends, which differ in protein quality, and the impact on blood amino acid response in male subjects.
Interventions
Animal proteins mixed with water and consumed as a beverage once by the subject in a 4x4 Williams square crossover design
Plant-based protein blends mixed with water and consumed as a beverage once by the subject in a 4x4 Williams square crossover design
