Protein turnover and thermogenesis in response to high-protein and high-carbohydrate feeding in men
SM Robinson, C Jaccard, C Persaud… - The American journal of …, 1990 - Elsevier
The rates of energy expenditure and wholebody protein turnover were determined during a
9-h period in a group of seven men while they received hourly isocaloric meals of high-
protein (HP) or high-carbohydrate (HC) content. Their responses to feeding were compared
with those to a short period of fasting (15-24 h). The 9-h thermic response to the repeated
feeding of HP meals was found to be greater than that to the HC meals (9.6+/-0.6% vs 5.7+/-
0.4% of the energy intake, respectively, means+/-SEM, p less than 0.01). The rate of whole …
