Filter by:The goal of this clinical trial is to test effects of consuming probiotics in healthy adults. The main question it aims to answer is: • Do consuming probiotics affect a healthy adult's ability to absorb amino acids from plant proteins? Participants will - Consume one dose of probiotic pills per day after meals for two weeks - Consume one dose of plant-based plant protein beverage after an overnight fast and collection of one 5 ml fasting blood sample - Undergo blood draw of 6 more 5 ml blood samples for the next 3 hours after consuming plant-based protein beverage
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of a digestive enzyme supplement (three times per day for 30 days) on gastrointestinal distress (GID) and body composition (body mass and body fat percentage) in healthy men and women (18 - 55 years of age) who experience regular GID (3 - 6 episodes of GID per month).
There are different types of casein on the market, which differ according to their chemical or physical process of obtaining. The processes will impact structural differences in the macromolecular assembly. The majority of caseins marketed in nutrition are casein in the form of Na caseinate or Ca caseinate. The micellar caseins obtained by membrane filtration (physical process) are more and more used in the nutrition market. The development of casein extraction with different structures on an industrial scale opens up other perspectives for these proteins, particularly in terms of health. The main objective of this project is to study the postprandial kinetics of the plasma concentrations of the essential amino acids of three structurally different types of caseins. The secondary objective is to study the speed of gastric emptying and the nutritional properties of different proteins.
