Does this correlate to an anabolic state and how do you maintain such a state? Sufficient protein or just calories?
 
If you have a positive nitrogen balance, you are not losing protein tissue from the body, which is LIKELY an anabolic state. Then again, you can have a rapidly growing cancer, or be pregnant. . .

You need sufficient protein AND sufficient calories. Severe lack of either will always make a mess of things.
