Aims:
- Exercise countermeasures are currently only partially protective. Nutritional supplements may improve exercise countermeasures effectiveness. Studies will be solicited to test novel nutritional supplements to improve exercise effectiveness in a bed rest flight analog. This will directly address the gaps to minimize exercise time and hardware that is required.
Integration/Unique Aspects:
This study is one of several potential pharmaceutical or nutritional countermeasures that if promising could be selected for flight validation (see Flight Validation Studies of Pharmaceutical or Nutritional Supplements).
