Patent

CA 2445343

Malnourishment leading to a decrease in body weight interferes with estrogen secretion in women, causing deleterious effects on bone density and on the menstrual cycle. The invention is based on the discovery that it is possible to reverse these metabolic effects of malnourishment by boosting protein intake, as whole protein or as a blend of essential amino acids. The proteins may be administered in the form of a dietary supplement, as a foodstuff, or as a component of a complete meal.

La malnutrition, une cause de diminution du poids corporel, interfère avec la sécrétion des oestrogènes chez les femmes, et provoque des effets délétères sur la densité osseuse et sur le cycle menstruel. Selon cette invention, on a montré qu'il est possible d'inverser ces effets métaboliques de malnutrition par le biais de la stimulation de la prise protéique, sous forme de protéine entière ou d'un mélange d'acides aminés essentiels. On peut administrer ces protéines comme un supplément alimentaire, aliments ou composant d'un repas complet.
