Clinical trials: Protein Supplementation
Muscle Damage
Effect of Whey Protein on Soccer Performance
Rationale: During exercise protein breakdown in muscles is larger than protein synthesis. This negative muscle protein balance leads to increased muscle damage and thereby to a reduced muscle tissue recovery.
