Summary

The purpose of the project is to provide evidence for the use of hydrolysed meat protein (HMP) as a protein supplement for elderly who has difficulty meeting the recommended daily protein intake. The study will investigate how the meat protein derived amino acids (from either HMP, steak or minced meat) are absorbed and released into the blood circulation of elderly persons. Hereby, the study will explore the the anabolic potential of HMP compared with common meat products.
