Figure 4.

Time course and incremental area under the curve (iAUC; calculated as above postaborptive values) of plasma leucine (A and B), valine (C and D), isoleucine (E and F), and methionine (G and H) over a 3-h postabsorptive period (time course only) and 4-h postprandial period in healthy resistance-trained men. The dashed vertical line represents drink consumption [46.7 g of mycoprotein containing 25 g of protein (MYC; n = 11), 31.7 g of pea protein containing 25 g of protein (PEA; n = 11), or 36.9 g of mycoprotein/pea protein blend (39/61%) containing 25 g of protein (BLEND; n = 11)], following whole body resistance exercise. Time course data were analyzed using a two-way repeated-measures ANOVA (group × time) with Sidak post hoc tests used to detect differences at individual time points. iAUC data were analyzed using a one-way ANOVA. *Individual differences between MYC and PEA at that time point and a difference between conditions on the bar graphs (P < 0.05). #Individual differences between MYC and BLEND at that time point (P < 0.05). Time effect; all P < 0.0001. Group effect; all P > 0.05, with exception of leucine P < 0.05. Time × group interaction; all P < 0.0001. Values are represented as means ± SE.
