Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Obesity
Interventions
Dietary Supplement: Whey protein supplementation with exercise
Other: Non protein supplementation with exercise (control)
Registration Number
NCT00812409
Lead Sponsor
Purdue University
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to identify the influence of resistance and aerobic exercise with different nutritional supplements in middle-aged men and women on various physiological measures. Throughout the study, the investigators examine body composition, body weight, food intake, fitness level, metabolism, and blood hormones.
