Protein consumption stimulates MPS in both prostate cancer patients on ADT and age-matched controls, but to a greater extent in controls.
Protein supplementation can enhance muscle protein synthesis, particularly in non-ADT individuals.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Protein consumption stimulated MPS in both groups (approximate twofold increase, both P < 0.001), but to a greater extent in CON (P = 0.003).
Why this rating
The study design allows for a clear comparison of MPS responses to protein intake.

- 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
