Brief Summary

This study aims to investigate the muscle anabolic potential of adding ketone (3-hydroxybutyrate) to whey protein compared with isocaloric, isonitrogenous whey protein in a human model of inflammatory...

Detailed Description

Background: Muscle wasting during hospitalization is caused by a combination of immobilization (bed rest), hypocaloric diet and inflammation (e.g. sepsis), and preventive measures are needed. Whey pro...
