Method To Measure Protein Digestion & Absorption

The study involves 1 screening visit of approximately 1-2 hours and 1 test day of approximately 8 hours. On the study day protein digestion and absorption will be measured using a mixture of amino acids that are made slightly heavier than normal, called stable isotopes. Subjects will receive feeding by sips to monitor changes in digestion and absorption, which can be picked up by stable isotope technology.
