1. A method for increasing, for a gram of protein, muscle protein synthesis (MPS) relative to another nitrogenous process:
a) obtaining, from a computing device, an amino acid profile of a protein sample comprising a plurality of amino acids, wherein each of the plurality of amino acids comprise a value measured in grams and wherein the value of the plurality of amino acids are sorted from greatest to least;
b) plotting, using a server, each of the plurality of amino acids, on a two-dimensional graph, in descending order based respective values so as to identify a final five data points of the amino acid profile to define a slope regression tail;
c) calculating, using the server, an initial slope value for each of the final five data points, wherein the initial slope value is defined as M=(Y2−Y1)/(X2−X1), with Y representing each value for each of the final five data points and X representing, in the descending order, each of the final five data points; and
d) adjusting, using the server, the amino acid profile algorithmically to generate an adjusted amino acid profile, by:
calculating, for each of the final five data points, a percent difference between a highest initial slope values and each of the final five data points of the slope regression tail;
multiplying the percent difference by each respective initial slope value to yield a product for each of the final five data points;
adding the product back to the value of a respective amino acid to yield a corrected weight for each of the final five data points; and
for a lowest three amino acids of the plurality of amino acids of the slope regression tail, adding a correction score of 1%, 2%, and 3% respectively, by multiplying the corrected weight for each of the lowest three amino acids by the correction score and then subtracting that correction value from the corrected weight.
