The Effects Potato Protein on Rates of Myofibrillar Muscle Protein Synthesis in Young Women

NCT04302038 · Status: COMPLETED · Phase: NA · Type: INTERVENTIONAL · Enrollment: 24

Last updated 2020-03-10

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

This study will investigate the effects of potato protein on muscle protein synthesis over a short-term (a few hours after eating) and longer term (after two weeks of unilateral resistance exercise). Young women will be randomized to received potato protein supplementation or placebo in addition to their usual diet. Muscle biopsies will be taken and the participants will drink doubly labelled water to allow for the measurement of protein synthesis over time.
