BTLP Trial Summary

This trial is trying to improve a breath test method that can help identify when someone might be at risk of losing body or muscle mass. The researchers want to see if using a lower amount of dietary amino

Who is the study for?

This trial is for people who live a sedentary lifestyle or are interested in how their body processes proteins during different activity levels, like resting, less movement, or resistance exercise. Participants should not have allergies that affect the study and must be able to perform physical tasks as required.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study is testing a modified breath test method to see how well it measures protein processing by the body under various conditions: normal daily activities, reduced steps (less walking and moving), and after resistance exercises like weight lifting.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this trial involves habitual activities and changes in exercise routines rather than medication or invasive procedures, side effects are minimal but may include muscle soreness from resistance training.
