Abstract in brief

  • The study aimed to evaluate the effects of 8 weeks of supplementation with either whey or rice protein on body composition and exercise performance.
  • It highlights the differing impacts of animal-derived protein (whey) versus plant-based protein (rice) on muscle growth during resistance training.
  • Researchers sought to determine if rice protein can enhance recovery and body composition similarly to whey protein when both are consumed in large, equal calorie amounts post-exercise.

@bigfatsurprise You have to make vague dramatic false claims about human health because when you actually test which is healthier, regenerative grass-fed meat or plant-based alternatives, the vegan versions statistically come out on top. https://t.co/kGqVSqVGBj
