Pharmacokinetic Effect of AstraGin on Whey Protein Absorption and Muscle Function in Healthy Subjects
Sponsor: Chung Shan Medical University
Summary
This study gave healthy people supplements with ginseng and astragalus saponin extracts (AstraGin), combined with whey protein, to explore whether it can promote amino acid absorption and thereby enhance protein nutritional status and muscle function. This trial is a randomized, double-blind, crossover trial, and the research subjects are adult healthy subjects.
