Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this three-arm, pilot, randomized controlled trial is to examine the metabolic and behavioral impacts of consuming a diet characterized by protein from red meat, a meat analogue, or beans/legumes.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Beef

Individuals will be asked to consume beef as their only source of protein and follow an individualized meal plan for 4 weeks. Thereafter, they will be instructed to continue beef consumption with any other foods desired for 4 weeks.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Beef

Intervention Type OTHER

Fresh, locally-sourced, grass-fed, grass-finished ground beef sufficient to meet protein needs based on body weight for 8 weeks

Meat analogue

Individuals will be asked to consume a commercial meat analogue product as their only source of protein and follow an individualized meal plan for 4 weeks. Thereafter, they will be instructed to continue the meat analogue consumption with any other foods desired for 4 weeks.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Meat analogue

Intervention Type OTHER

Commercially-available and purchased meat analogue sufficient to meet protein needs based on body weight for 8 weeks

Beans/legumes

Individuals will be asked to consume beans/legumes as their only source of protein and follow an individualized meal plan for 4 weeks. Thereafter, they will be instructed to continue the bean/legume consumption with any other foods desired for 4 weeks.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Beans/legumes

Intervention Type OTHER

Canned beans/legumes sufficient to meet protein needs based on body weight for 8 weeks
