Supplemental protein hydrolysate had a positive effect on fat-free mass (FFM) with a standardized mean difference (SMD) of 0.36 (95% CI: 0.16–0.56, P = 0.000).
Practitioners may consider recommending protein hydrolysate supplementation to enhance fat-free mass in resistance-trained individuals.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Data from 330 participants in eight studies showed that supplemental protein hydrolysate had a positive effect on the FFM (n = 13, SMD = 0.36, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.16–0.56, P = 0.000).
Why this rating
