Mean plasma leucine incremental area under curve was greater following rBLG compared with whey.
rBLG may provide a superior source of leucine compared to whey, potentially enhancing muscle protein synthesis.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Mean plasma leucine incremental area under curve was greater following rBLG compared with WHEY (mean diff, 10727; 95% confidence interval, 7738-13716) μmol·240 min·L -1; P < 0.001.
