Dietary protein has been shown to increase urinary Ca excretion in randomised controlled trials, and diets high in protein may have detrimental effects on bone health; however, studies examining the relationship between dietary protein and bone health have conflicting results. In the present study, we examined the relationship between dietary protein (total, animal and vegetable protein) and lu...

Dietary protein provides essential amino acids (EAAs) for the synthesis of new proteins plus an array of other metabolic functions; many of these functions are sensitive to postprandial plasma and intracellular amino acid concentrations. Recent research has focused on amino acids as metabolic signals that influence the rate of protein synthesis, inflammation responses, mitochondrial activity, a...

We made a new protein-rich and fibrous foodstuff by mi]ling and sieving brewer's pent grain. This product contained glutamine-rich protein and the dietary fibers cellulose, hemicel}ulose, and lignin. We called this produet germinated barley f(K)dstufi (GBF). GBF had the effect of increasing feca] dry weight and number of fb{ es and of significantly inereasing jejunum mucosal protein content in ...
