Background: High intakes of total and animal protein are associated with the risk of type 2 diabetes (T2D). The influence of protein type on insulin resistance, a key precursor of T2D, has not been extensively studied. Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the associations between dietary total, animal, and plant protein intakes as well as the animal-to-plant protein (AP) intake rat...

High-producing Landrace-Large White crossbred gilts (n = 50) involving 198 farrowings were used to evaluate dietary gestation protein (13 vs 16% CP) and gestation feed intakes (Control vs High), and their interaction, over a five-parity period on sow reproductive performance. Gestation feed intake for Control was 1.81 kg/d during parity 1, increasing by .09 kg for each successive parity. The da...

Background: Adequate nutrition during childhood is essential to promote child growth and development. Objective: The study evaluated the relationship of habitual nutrient intake protein adequacy prevalence malnutrition. Methods: Data were derived from a nationally representative sample children aged 6–12 years. Two nonconsecutive day 24-h dietary recalls (24hR) collected estimate...

OBJECTIVE The long-term health consequences of diets used for weight control are not established. We have evaluated the association of the frequently recommended low carbohydrate diets - usually characterized by concomitant increase in protein intake - with long-term mortality. DESIGN The Women's Lifestyle and Health cohort study initiated in Sweden during 1991-1992, with a 12-year almost com...

BACKGROUND Protein is indispensable in the human diet, and its intake appears tightly regulated. The role of sensory attributes of foods in protein intake regulation is far from clear. OBJECTIVE We investigated the effect of human protein status on neural responses to different food cues with the use of functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The food cues varied by taste category (swee...

Protein is one of the macronutrients needed in child growth, which can be obtained from animal and plant foodstuffs. intake gets more attention because energy-protein malnutrition common children under five. nutrition for must fulfilled to prevent growth retardation next phase. This research aims establish a profile preschool children's vegetable protein intake. type descriptive observational w...

Infant cebus monkeys (Cebus albifrons) were fed liquid formulas that were limited in protein, energy, or a combination of the two restrictions. Weight gain, food intake, hematological development, and plasma protein and cholesterol levels were monitored over a 20-week period. The animals restricted in protein developed the classical signs of protein deficiency--reductions in plasma albumin, a m...

While protein is regarded as the most satiating macronutrient, many studies have employed test meals that had very high and unsustainable protein contents. Furthermore, the comparative responses between lean and obese subjects and the relationships between energy intake suppression and gut hormone release remain unclear. We evaluated the acute effects of meals with modest variations in 1) fat, ...

Extreme macronutrient intakes possibly lead to different brain signalling. The aim of the present study was to determine the effects of ingesting high-protein v. high-carbohydrate food on liking and wanting task-related brain signalling (TRS) and subsequent macronutrient intake. A total of thirty female subjects (21.6 (SD 2.2) years, BMI 25.0 (SD 3.7) kg/m²) completed four functional MRI scans:...
