What did studies of Medium-chain triglycerides + chair-stand exercise find?

3

Studies of Medium-chain triglycerides + chair-stand exercise measured 3 outcomes; the most studied are muscle mass (1 study), muscle strength (1) and physical function (1).

Muscle mass

upin humans1

1 study

  1. Medium-chain triglycerides + chair-stand exercise increases muscle mass in humans (B = 0.194, 95% CI: 0.102-0.419, β = 0.12, p = 0.039).

    “Increases in HGS (B = 2.441, 95% CI: 0.483-4.398, β = 0.18, p = 0.015) and SMI (B = 0.194, 95% CI: 0.102-0.419, β = 0.12, p = 0.039) were also observed.”
