Effects of feeding a 20% casein diet or a PF diet supplemented with WAM, WPC, or WPH on the wet volume of the EDL muscle (A) and the soleus muscle (B). Values represent the mean ± SEM (n = 8–9). * significantly different from 20% Cs at p < 0.05. a,b Mean values with unlike letters were significantly different from the lean group at p < 0.05.
