NCT02157805

Brief Summary

This project aims to assess the impact of technological processes of meat, as cooking conditions, on amino acid bioavailability and protein metabolism. The hypothesis is that, even if meat is considered as a good provider of fast proteins and so could be useful to prevent sarcopenia in aged people, the manner it is cooked can change its digestion rate and amino acids bioavailability for muscle synthesis.
