Beetroot juice tested as potential Muscle-Saver during injury recovery
NCT ID NCT07161973
Summary
This study is testing whether dietary nitrate, found in foods like beetroot juice, can help prevent muscle loss and weakness when a leg is immobilized. Researchers will have healthy young men wear a knee brace for two weeks while taking either nitrate supplements or a placebo. They'll measure changes in muscle strength, size, and energy production to see if nitrate helps maintain muscle health during disuse.
