Dietary protein requirements of elderly people were determined by short-term nitrogen-
balance techniques and using calculations recommended by the 1985 Joint FAO/WHO/UNU
Expert Consultation. Twelve men and women aged 56–80 y were randomly assigned to
groups that consumed either 0.80±0.01 or 1.62±0.02 g protein· kg− 1· d− 1 (x̄±SEM). Net
nitrogen balance was negative for the lower-protein group (− 4.6±3.4 mg N· kg− 1· d− 1) and
positive for the higher-protein group (13.6±1.0 mg N· kg− 1· d− 1); the intake required for …
