Summary
This study looks at how two different proteins—whey and egg white—affect blood ammonia levels in people with advanced liver disease caused by alcohol. High ammonia can harm brain function. Fifty adults with cirrhosis will try each protein on separate days, and researchers will measure ammonia and thinking ability before and after. The goal is to find out which protein is safer and help guide better nutrition for liver patients.
