Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Owing to its relatively high protein and fibre content, mycoprotein presents an attractive food product to improve appetite regulation and postprandial glycaemic and insulin responses in overweight and obese individuals at risk of developing T2DM
