Association of Dietary Protein Intake and Grip Strength Among Adults Aged 19+ Years: NHANES 2011-2014 Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Research on the role of protein in the diet has evolved beyond a focus on quantity to include the impact of its quality and distribution across meal times in an effort to optimize dietary protein recommendations.

Objective

To determine the association of dietary protein amount, type, and intake pattern with grip strength in adults.

Design

Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2011-2014 for adults 19 + years (N = 9,214) were used with exclusions for pregnant and lactating women. Intakes of dietary total protein (TP), animal protein (AP, including dairy), plant protein (PP), and leucine (Leu) were determined using day 1 24 h dietary recall data after adjusting for the complex sample design of NHANES.
