U.S., Sept. 16 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07819565) titled 'Effects of Pork Protein on Recovery Following Simulated Fireground Activity' on Sept. 08.

Brief Summary: The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether consuming pork-based protein before and after physically demanding simulated firefighting activities can improve recovery, physical performance, and cognitive performance in healthy adult firefighters. The study will also compare pork-based protein meals with plant-based protein meals and a carbohydrate-focused control condition.
