NIH/PubMed — Jackman, 2017
✓ Supports immune function under exertion — Glutamine lowered infection rates in endurance athletes.
NIH/PubMed — Castell, 1996
✓ Promotes satiety — Pea protein preload reduced food intake vs. control.
NIH/PubMed — Abou-Samra, 2011
✓ Plant vs animal protein — Meta-analysis found similar effects on muscle gain when protein was matched.
NIH/PubMed — van Vliet, 2017
✓ Digestive comfort — Alpha-galactosidase reduced post-bean gas (crossover RCT).
NIH/PubMed — Suarez, 1994
