Can a milk protein boost your iron and stamina?

NCT ID NCT06428357

Summary

This study tested whether a supplement made from a cow's milk protein (recombinant bovine lactoferrin) could help the body regulate iron better than a similar protein from regular milk or a placebo. Researchers enrolled 92 healthy, active adults to take the supplement daily for four weeks. They measured changes in participants' iron levels, gut health, immune markers, and performance on treadmill running tests.
