AstroCIT aims to develop a nutraceutical to combat muscle atrophy in astronauts and aging individuals. This innovative solution focuses on improving muscle health during space missions and in rehabilitation, offering a scientifically-backed alternative to traditional exercise and diet methods.
Question:
What is the common factor between an astronaut, an older person and someone who just underwent a serious surgery?
Answer:
Muscle atrophy.
During long missions for instance, astronauts can lose up to 50% of their muscle mass severely affecting their performance and health.
