Amino Acids and Exercise in FSHD

This study evaluates whether amino acid supplementation, combined with a structured diet and exercise program, improves body composition (increased muscle mass and reduced fat mass) and physical performance in individuals with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD). The study also compares responses to the intervention between individuals with FSHD and healthy individuals matched for age and sex.
