Official Title: Effect of Rg1 Supplementation on Stem Cells in Exercised Skeletal Muscles of Women > 60 y
Brief Summary:
The goal of this interventional study is to observe the effects of bone marrow stem cell behavior in skeletal muscle of women between 60 to 75 years old after a single moderate resistance exercise session.Plant sterol Rg1, a compound known to enhance stem cell infiltration following exercise in young men will be tested against a placebo in a double blinded crossover design.The main questions to be answered are:Does Rg1 supplementation alter serum sex hormone levels in recovery from exercise?Does Rg1…
