Study Summary
The investigators are conducting this research study to find out if eating low or high levels of specific amino acids changes the levels of these same amino acids in the blood. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein that are normally found in food. The amino acids the investigators are studying are called branched chain amino acids. The investigators will look at the levels (amount) of branched chain amino acids in blood before and after consumption of specially prepared meals. The investigators hypothesize that circulating branch chain amino acid (BCAA) levels will be lower following a low BCAA-content diet compared with a high BCAA-content diet.
Primary Outcome
A comparison of branched chain amino acid levels (as measured by mass spectrometry) following 4 days of a low and following 4 days of a high BCAA-content diet
Interventions
- OTHER Diet high in amino acid levels
- OTHER Diet low in amino acid levels
