Abstract
We found that more frequent consumption of meals containing between 30 and 45Â g protein/meal produced the greatest association with leg lean mass and strength. Thus, the consumption of 1-2 daily meals with protein content from 30 to 45Â g may be an important strategy for increasing and/or maintaining lean body mass and muscle strength with aging.
