Dietary Lysine Intakes
Participants consume 8 hourly meals that contain the assigned test lysine intake. Each meal will provide one-twelfth of the participants' daily energy requirements as estimated by 1.7 x Resting Energy Expenditure (REE) and adequate protein at 1.5 g.kg.d, to maintain a metabolic steady state. The meals are in the form of a crystalline amino acid protein shake, and nitrogenous free cookies.
