Animal-based foods have traditionally been viewed as dietary staples because they provide
many essential nutrients; however, edible insects have the potential to serve as healthy …

It is widely known that branched chain amino acids (BCAA) are not only elementary
components for building muscle tissue but also participate in increasing protein synthesis in …

Clinical and consumer market interest is increasingly directed toward the use of plant-based
proteins as dietary components aimed at preserving or increasing skeletal muscle mass …

There is a global trend of an increased interest in plant-based diets. This includes an
increase in the consumption of plant-based proteins at the expense of animal-based …

Background: The intake of whey, compared with casein and soy protein intakes, stimulates a
greater acute response of muscle protein synthesis (MPS) to protein ingestion in rested and …

Skeletal muscle is an integral body tissue playing key roles in strength, performance,
physical function, and metabolic regulation. It is essential for athletes to ensure that they …

Purpose Progressive loss of skeletal muscle mass with aging (sarcopenia) forms a global
health concern. It has been suggested that an impaired capacity to increase muscle protein …

On the basis of recent work, we propose a novel and specific dietary approach to prevent or
slow down muscle loss with ageing. Rather than recommending a large, global increase in …

The age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass and function is caused, at least in part, by a
reduced muscle protein synthetic response to protein ingestion. The magnitude and duration …

Background: Leucine is a key amino acid involved in the regulation of skeletal muscle
protein synthesis. Objective: We assessed the effect of the supplementation of a lower …
