Tart cherry concentrate does not enhance muscle protein synthesis response to exercise and protein in healthy older men.

CONCLUSION: Short-term MCC ingestion does not affect the anabolic response to protein and exercise in healthy, relatively active, older men, despite MCC ingestion attenuating expression of proteins involved in the muscle inflammatory response to exercise, which may influence the chronic training response.
