Visual analog scale (1–10) was used for the questionnaires. Data are expressed as means ± standard deviation.
PBP, plant-based blend protein isolate; 88% pea protein and 12% canola protein (n = 7).
PBP + Leu, PBP fortified with leucine to match the leucine concentration as whey protein (n = 8).
WHEY, whey protein isolate (n = 8).
1-way repeated measures analysis of variance, within-subjects, was used.
