topicFava Bean Protein Muscle Mass Randomized Trial
claimThe aim of the present study was to evaluate the effect of feeding fava bean ( Vicia faba L.) protein (FBP) on resting and post-exercise myofibrillar fractional synthetic rate (myoFSR).

topicFava Bean Protein Muscle Mass Randomized Trial
claimIn a parallel, double-blind, randomised control trial, sixteen young, healthy recreationally active adults (age = 25 (5) years, body mass = 70 (15) kg, stature = 1.72 (0.11) m, mean (SD)) ingested 0.33 g·kg -1 FBP ( n = 8) or a negative control (CON, i.e., EAA-free mixture) ( n = 8), immediately after a bout of unilateral knee-extensor resistance exercise.
