Quantifying differences in bioavailability of different dietary proteins in older adults

Projecttitel: Quantifying differences in bioavailability of different dietary proteins in older adults
Projectnummer: LWV 20.155
Missie: Gewaardeerd, gezond en veilig voedsel
MMIP:  D2 – De consument, duurzame en gezonde voeding, in een groene leefomgeving
Projectleider: Thom Huppertz

To enable sustainable utilization of dietary protein and support Priority 26 / MMIP D2, this project will assess digestibility and metabolic availability of proteins in older and young adults in vivo and in vitro. Valorisation of the outcomes via product development, communication and education will provide clear opportunities to ensure that dietary protein requirements can be sustainably fulfilled for older adults in our population that are at risk of malnutrition.
