This study tests if a new algae-based protein drink can help older adults build muscle, both at rest and after exercise. It aims to find a plant-based way to support muscle strength as we age.
This study looks at how well protein from plant-based foods works in young adults (18–39) and older adults (60–79). It aims to understand if plant proteins can meet the body's needs as we age.
This study looks at how eating more plant-based foods affects muscle health in people aged 65 and older. Participants will eat either a diet with extra plants or a standard diet, and we'll check their muscles and overall health.
This study compares how well beef protein and plant protein help build muscle in older adults who may be starting to feel weak or lose muscle. You'll eat test meals and have your muscle response measured using a safe, stable isotope technique.
This study tests a new plant-based ingredient to see if it improves heart health and metabolism in older adults who are at risk for heart disease or diabetes. If you're over 60 and have a larger waist or higher triglycerides (a type of fat in your blood), this might be a good fit.
This trial compares plant-based protein sources to animal-based ones to see which better helps older adults with obesity and early muscle loss improve strength and health. It aims to find the best protein for protecting metabolism and building muscle.
