First seen Apr 28, 2026 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026

Summary

This study looks at whether a whey protein drink with extra leucine (a key amino acid) helps older men build muscle more effectively than regular whey protein. Researchers will measure muscle protein synthesis in 30 healthy men over 65, both at rest and after exercise. The goal is to find a better way to prevent age-related muscle loss (sarcopenia).
