There were no significant differences in markers of oxidative stress (urinary isoprostanes, serum protein carbonyls, or DNA fragmentation) between the age groups.
Oxidative stress may not accumulate with age as previously thought, impacting health aging strategies.

There were no significant differences in urinary isoprostanes, serum protein carbonyls, or DNA fragmentation between groups.
Why this rating
Based on the study design and the measurement of multiple oxidative stress markers.

- Athletes aiming to reduce fat mass and preserve FFM should consume protein intakes in the range of ∼1.8-2.7 g kg(-1) d(-1).Strong
- 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
