1. Recommendations for proteins
A reduction in protein intake may lead to a negative nitrogen balance. Research suggests that the daily protein requirement in injured people should be 1.62.5 g/kg. Portions of protein should be carefully planned for muscle metabolism, even if total intake remains at the recommended level. A drastic decrease in protein consumption may result in a negative nitric acid balance. Studies suggest that daily protein needs for injured persons should be 1.62.5 g/g/kg in the body.2. The following table summarizes the results of the evaluation:
On the one hand, creatine supplementation for 2 weeks by healthy people with stable limbs has not been associated with reduced muscle mass loss. It is recommended to use 10 g daily for two weeks, followed by 5 g per day for 46 weeks. They are found in dietary products such as fatty fish, seafood, squid, olive oil, acetic acid, flax; supplementation with omega-3s is not associated with decreased muscle weight loss. Omega-3s should be considered in people with low levels of creatine and other omega-3 compounds, but should not be used after a prolonged period of time.
