This study is testing a creatine supplement (a substance that may help with energy and muscle function) in healthy middle-aged women. You may join if you are between 35 and 65, a non-smoker, and have a certain activity level.
This study tests if a new supplement can improve muscle strength, endurance, and body composition in healthy men. You'll follow a 12-week exercise program and take either the supplement or a placebo.
This study tests whether a special nutritional supplement helps muscles recover better after exercise. Researchers will compare how well the supplement works in healthy young men who exercise regularly.
This study looks at whether a special protein drink can help build muscle better than a placebo when combined with strength training. If you are a healthy young adult who is new to weight lifting, this trial may help you build muscle more effectively.
This study tests whether a whey protein drink with an adaptogen (ashwagandha) can help physically active men perform better and recover faster. You would keep your usual diet and exercise routine while taking the supplement.
This study looks at how certain amino acids (building blocks of protein) help maintain muscle mass. Healthy young men eat a special diet and have their muscle protein production measured to see if non-essential amino acids matter for keeping muscles strong.
