Effects of inflammation and/or inactivity on the need for dietary protein
Current Opinion in Clinical Nutrition & Metabolic Care, 10/20/09
Guadagni M et al. – In inflammation and/or inactivity a relatively high protein intake may be required to promote synthesis of specific proteins, prevent depletion of selected amino acids (e.g., glutamine or arginine), modulate immune functions, counteract insulin resistance and redox unbalance. Thus, an optimal protein/amino acid intake may be greater than that required to decrease whole body protein wasting.
