Micronutrients & recovery
A high-protein breakfast (34g) containing dairy (skyr) may positively influence bone mineral content (BMC) compared to a low-protein breakfast, potentially due to higher calcium intake.
Eating a high-protein breakfast with dairy (like skyr) provides more calcium, which may help maintain or slightly increase bone mineral content over 12 weeks. This is a secondary benefit and not a primary driver for weight loss.
Bone mineral content (BMC) seemed to be influenced by the intervention (β: 20.1; 95 % CI: 4.4, 35.8 g; P = 0.01 between groups), due to a trend towards increased BMC in HP (P = 0.05) and a decreased BMC in LP (P = 0.07).
Why this rating
Trend-level significance (P=0.05) for within-group change, but significant interaction effect.

More from this paper
- Consuming a high-protein breakfast (34g) versus a low-protein breakfast (6g) for 12 weeks increases subjective satiety but does not result in significant changes in body composition (fat mass, lean mass, weight) or cardiometabolic health markers in young women with overweight.Good
- A high-protein breakfast (34g) significantly increases subjective satiety and reduces hunger compared to a low-protein breakfast (6g) in young women with overweight, but this does not translate to reduced daily energy intake.Good
