• Status: Completed
• Phase: N/A

• Healthy volunteers: Accepted

Summary

This study investigates whether a protein-nutrition beverage can increase muscle protein synthesis to a similar magnitude as a control beverage.

Detailed description

Potential participants will be screened, and if eligible, invited to participate. Body composition and physical activity level will be assessed during the initiation visit. During the trial visits, women receive a protein-nutrition beverage; muscle protein synthesis is assessed via blood analytes and muscle biopsies at rest and after exercise. Statistical analysis includes mixed model regression approach with change in muscle protein synthesis as the primary outcome.

Conditions

• Muscle Protein Synthesis

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
OTHER	Protein-nutrition beverage	Intervention involves consumption of one protein-nutrition beverage after exercise bout and 2 times per day for 5 days thereafter
