What the study found
Milk protein did not clearly accelerate measured muscle-function recovery relative to energy-matched carbohydrate, although reduced glutathione changed.
Scope & limitations
18 male basketball players in a double-blind randomized crossover study.
Small sport-specific sample; external game load was not measured and laboratory strength tests do not capture every aspect of game performance. A null result does not prove equivalence.
Population & sample
18 male basketball players.
Exposure or intervention
Milk protein versus an energy-matched carbohydrate supplement during a congested schedule; crossover design.
Outcomes
Muscle-function recovery and biochemical measures, including reduced glutathione.
Time frame
Three consecutive games with follow-up through 72 hours after the schedule.
Research funding
No external funding reported; the authors acknowledge support from their host institutions.
Research conflicts of interest
The authors declared no conflicts of interest.
