U.S., July 4 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07049224) titled 'The Effectiveness of a Diet With Beef as Key Protein Component Versus a Plant-Based Diet to Support Integrated Muscle Protein Synthesis Rates in Healthy Older Individuals' on Dec. 19, 2024.

Brief Summary: Muscles are composed out of proteins. These proteins in turn are composed out of smaller building blocks, called amino acids. By consuming a sufficient amount of dietary protein, a sufficient amount of amino acids become available to build new muscle proteins. The body's ability to build these new muscle proteins is of great importance to maintain muscle strength and function.

Previous research suggests that a meal containing prote...
