Summary
This study looks at whether taking dietary nitrate (found in beets) can reduce muscle shrinkage and energy problems when a leg is immobilized in a brace for 14 days. Twenty-four healthy young men will wear a knee brace and take either nitrate or a placebo. Researchers will measure muscle strength, speed, power, and mitochondrial function to see if nitrate helps.
