Primary Outcome Measures:

Plasma amino acids [ Time Frame: At Day 1 (Intervention day); After 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, 180, 240, 300, 360, 420 and 480 minutes ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
Free proteinogenic amino acids

Secondary Outcome Measures:

Body composition (body status) [ Time Frame: At day 1 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
Bioelectrical impedance analysis, body weight
Nitrogen balance [ Time Frame: After day 0 and 1 ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
Nitrogen balance = nitrogen intake - nitrogen output (urine nitrogen + fecal nitrogen + skin nitrogen); Nitrogen intake was calculated from food uptake; Urine nitrogen contains urea, uric acid, creatinine and total protein; Fecal nitrogen was calculated as the tenth part of the nitrogen intake; Skin nitrogen was calculated as 5.00 mg per kg of body weight

Arms	Assigned Interventions
Experimental: Canola protein Canola protein (Brassica juncea; incorporated in a drink)	Dietary Supplement: Protein drink - protein isolate The subjects consumed 500 mL of a protein drink (tomato juice) containing 30 g protein (canola protein isolate or reference protein) after overnight fasting. After run-in period, each volunteer have to pass both protein-intervention days in different order with a four-week wash out period in between. Other Name: CPI Dietary Supplement: Protein drink - protein hydrolyzate The subjects consumed 500 mL of a protein drink (tomato juice) containing 30 g protein (canola protein hydrolyzate or reference protein) after overnight fasting. After run-in period, each volunteer have to pass both protein-intervention days in different order with a four-week wash out period in between. Other Name: CPH
Active Comparator: Reference protein Reference Protein (soy protein isolate; incorporated in a drink)	Dietary Supplement: Protein drink - protein isolate The subjects consumed 500 mL of a protein drink (tomato juice) containing 30 g protein (canola protein isolate or reference protein) after overnight fasting. After run-in period, each volunteer have to pass both protein-intervention days in different order with a four-week wash out period in between. Other Name: CPI Dietary Supplement: Protein drink - protein hydrolyzate The subjects consumed 500 mL of a protein drink (tomato juice) containing 30 g protein (canola protein hydrolyzate or reference protein) after overnight fasting. After run-in period, each volunteer have to pass both protein-intervention days in different order with a four-week wash out period in between. Other Name: CPH
No Intervention: Wash out Wash out (four weeks without any intervention between interventional periods)
No Intervention: Run-in Run-in period (three days before intervention, defined diet)

Detailed Description:

The physiological effects of a single administration of two different industrially manufactured canola proteins (hydrolyzate, isolate) were investigated compared to soy protein.

Twenty-eight healthy men (ø 25 years) completed a double-blind, placebo-controlled, crossover study. The subjects were randomly divided into two groups (group A: canola protein isolate and soy protein isolate and group B: canola protein hydrolyzate and soy protein isolate). After a three-day run-in period, on the intervention day, the subjects consumed a protein drink containing 30.0 g protein powder added to a final volume of 500 mL tomato juice. Half of the subjects in each group consumed a protein drink containing 30.0 g canola protein, the other half received the soy protein. After taking of fasting blood samples in the morning of the intervention day, blood samples were drawn at regular intervals for a period of eight hours. At the end of the run-in period and on the intervention day, a 24-hour urine collection took place.

Within a second experiment (after 4 weeks), the protein source was crossed within the four subgroups for the second intervention.
