Study Summary
The investigators will test the following hypotheses: 1. Bedrest will blunt the anabolic response to a mixed nutrient meal, facilitating a loss of muscle mass and functional capacity that is only partially restored during rehabilitation. 2. Enriching daily meals with leucine will promote protein synthesis and maintain the anabolic response to mixed nutrient meal ingestion. This will preserve lean muscle mass and function during bedrest and facilitate the recovery of functional and metabolic capacity during rehabilitation.
