The impaired metabolic flexibility to glucose observed in type 2 diabetic subjects compared to nondiabetic subjects was no longer observed after adjusting for glucose disposal rate.
Practitioners should consider glucose disposal rate when assessing metabolic flexibility in type 2 diabetes.

The impaired metabolic flexibility to glucose observed in type 2 diabetic versus nondiabetic subjects (Delta RQ 0.06 +/- 0.01 vs. 0.10 +/- 0.01, respectively, P < 0.0001) was no longer observed after adjusting for glucose disposal rate (P = 0.19).

- A minimum daily protein intake of ≥1.6 g/kg is necessary to observe significant improvements in muscle mass from whey protein supplementation.Strong
- Most athletes ideally need 1.2 to 2.0 grams/kg of body weight/day of protein, preferably split across 3-4 meals.Strong
