Summary
This study looks at how animal-based and plant-based proteins change metabolism and immune signals in healthy adults. Twenty participants will drink three different protein smoothies and give blood samples. Researchers want to see if adding leucine to plant protein makes the body respond like it does to animal protein. The goal is to understand how protein source affects cell pathways linked to heart health.
