Fig. 2From: Essential amino acid-enriched whey enhances post-exercise whole-body protein balance during energy deficit more than iso-nitrogenous whey or a mixed-macronutrient meal: a randomized, crossover studySchematic of the infusion studies. Muscle biopsy and blood samples were used in combination with primed, constant infusions of L-[2H5]-phenylalanine and L-[2H2]-tyrosine to determine the effects of EAA + W, WHEY, or MEAL ingestion on whole-body protein turnover following whole-body exercise as well as mixed muscle protein synthesis throughout an exercise and recovery period during energy deficitBack to article page
