Chronic Mycoprotein Consumption and Nucleotide Content in Metabolic Health (MYTH)
June 13, 2018 updated by: University of Exeter
Effect of Chronic Mycoprotein Consumption, and of Its Nucleotide Content, in Uric Acid Concentrations and Other Markers of Metabolic Health in Adults
Compare chronic (one week) of a 'normal' meat diet with one week of mycoprotein consumption, with or without a reduced nucleotide content, on markers of metabolic health, such as uric acid concentrations, blood glucose control and blood lipid profiles.

Arms and Interventions
Participant Group / Arm |
Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
Placebo Comparator: Animal protein based diet
Seven day fully controlled normocaloric diet (1.2 g/ kg body weight of protein per day), with the main protein source at the two main meals (lunch and dinner) being provided by animal products (meat and fish).
|
|
Active Comparator: Low-nucleotide mycoprotein based diet
Seven day fully controlled normocaloric diet (1.2 g/ kg body weight of protein per day), with the main protein source at the two main meals (lunch and dinner) being provided by nucleotide-depleted mycoprotein products (commercial Quorn products).
|
|
Active Comparator: High-nucleotide mycoprotein based diet
Seven day fully controlled normocaloric diet (1.2 g/ kg body weight of protein per day), with the main protein source at the two main meals (lunch and dinner) being provided by nucleotide-rich mycoprotein products.
