Understanding the Health Effect of a Bioactive Peptide From Egg: A Pilot Study

"Participants will consume a standardized breakfast (2 slices of 70 g whole wheat bread, 10 g of butter and 30 g of strawberry jam) followed by a smoothie containing the powder. The Egg White Powder will be incorporated in the standardized smoothie containing water, fruits and chocolate/strawberry syrup totaling 250 Kcal. The total calories of the breakfast will be adapted to the calorie needs of each participant to account for 20-25% of their daily calorie intake.~After a 9 h fast, blood will be taken before consumption of the standardized breakfast and smoothie (T= 0) and at 5, 10, 20, 30, 60, 90, 120, and 180 min after consumption of the smoothie. Participants will be given 15-25 minutes to eat their breakfast. Urine samples will be collected from participants before the smoothie consumption (0 h) and at 30 min, 90 min, 150 min, 6 hours, 12 hours, and 24 hours following consumption."
