DIAAS Protein Quality
DIAAS protein quality scores how well a food's amino acids meet human needs at the digestible level—dairy, eggs, and whey rank high; many plant proteins score lower alone but combine well across the day. DIAAS replaced older PDCAAS limits for lysine digestibility.

Total daily protein and leucine-rich meals still drive hypertrophy.
