What This Trial Is Studying
Occupying ~45-55% of body mass, skeletal muscle is the largest organ of the body and plays a pivotal role in locomotion, structural support and whole-body metabolic health. Additionally, skeletal muscle serves as the largest reservoir of amino acids (AA), which negatively adapts in states of disease and fasting to provide energy and AAs for vital organs, but also positively adapts to nutrition (i.e. protein consumption) and exercise (i.e. resistance exercise (RE)). With the current global ageing population, pressure on health and social care systems is continuing to mount due to…
