Summary

This study looked at whether drinking a ketone supplement can increase muscle protein synthesis (muscle repair and growth) after resistance exercise in 48 healthy young adults. Researchers compared the effects of the ketone drink alone, with whey protein, or with plain water. The goal was to see if ketones could enhance the muscle-building response to exercise and protein.
