How a study ingredient affects protein digestion in healthy adults
This trial tests whether a study ingredient called P24 changes how your body breaks down and uses protein from a meal. It may help researchers understand ways to support muscle health as we age.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are willing to eat a special test meal with mixed proteins
- You do not have diabetes or a stomach or bowel condition that affects digestion

This study compares how well the body digests protein from plant-based versus meat-based diets in young adults (18–23) and older adults (65–75). Researchers want to understand if age and diet type affect how efficiently your body uses protein from food.
This study looks at how different types of protein and minerals are absorbed by the body. You will consume protein drinks or meals, and samples will help researchers understand how your body uses them.
This study looks at whether taking a probiotic with a protein shake changes how quickly your body absorbs amino acids (the building blocks of protein). It might help people who want to improve muscle building or recovery.
This study looks at how well plant-based diets meet the body's protein needs in different age groups. You'll follow a plant-based eating plan temporarily, and researchers will check your blood to see how your body responds.
This study tests whether taking a daily protein supplement can improve how your brain works. It is for healthy older adults (ages 60–75) who are overweight but do not have diabetes or take certain medications.
This study tests a daily protein shake in two flavors to see how well people tolerate it and if it affects their well-being. You would drink it once a day for 15 days and answer some questionnaires.
