Brief Summary
We have established that dietary protein is an important regulator of intestinal calcium absorption in humans. However, we do not understand the mechanism by which dietary protein is affecting calcium absorption. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to evaluate whether dietary protein-induced changes in gastric acid secretion explain the observed changes in intestinal calcium absorption.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
Percent Change in Intestinal Calcium Absorption
This is completed by measuring the amount of calcium absorbed by utilizing dual stable calcium isotopes. It was hypothesized that we would see a percent decrease as a result of the proton pump inhibitor. Previous published data indicated a decline in calcium absorption of 6.6 +/- 5.5% when gastric pH is blocked.
Day 5 of a high protein diet
Secondary Outcomes (1)
Gastric pH
Day 5 of a high protein diet
Study Arms (2)
Esomeprazole
PLACEBO COMPARATORPlacebo
ACTIVE COMPARATORInterventions
2 Interventions with esomeprazole 20 mg twice a day for 9 days vs. a placebo for 9 days while on a high protein diet
