Mean values (± SEM) of energy (kcal), protein (g), fat (g), and carbohydrate (g) intakes in younger (n = 13) and older (n = 13) healthy men after the consumption of drinks (450 mL) containing protein/carbohydrate/fat: (i) 14 g/28 g/12.4 g (280 kcal/‘M280’), (ii) 70 g/28 g/12.4 g (504 kcal/‘M504’), (iii) 70 g/0 g/0 g (280 kcal/‘P280’), or (iv) control (~2 kcal). The age effect was assessed with an independent t-test.
