ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is looking at how nutrition education and whey protein supplementation can affect the body and performance of healthy athletes. Over five weeks, researchers want to see if teaching athletes about nutrition and giving them whey protein (or a placebo, which is a non-active substance) will change their body composition, such as body weight, muscle mass, and fat percentage. They will also measure how well the athletes can consume oxygen during exercise, which is important for endurance performance.
To participate in this study, individuals must be between 18 and 35 years old, have a body mass index (BMI) between 18.5 and 30, and currently train at least five times a week. Those with allergies to whey protein or certain health conditions will not be eligible. Participants will receive personalized nutrition education and keep track of their food intake while they are given the supplement. By the end of the trial, researchers will assess changes in body composition, nutrition knowledge, and endurance performance.
