Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine whether a 30 day beef intervention can improve peak cognitive performance in young, normally menstruating adult women. The control group will consume a daily portion of macronutrient equivalent vegetable source of protein.


Clinical Trial Description

The purpose of the Nutrition, Vision, and Cognition in Health Sport: Beef (IONSport-Beef) study is to conduct a randomized controlled trial to evaluate beef as a nutritional intervention to optimize visual cognitive training performance in generally healthy, normally menstruating women. Female subjects of reproductive age (18-40) will be randomly placed in one of two dietary treatment groups: one serving of beef per day for 30 days or a non-meat protein replacement control. Cognitive performance will be measured in 15 training sessions over 10 days using the sophisticated NeuroTrackerâ„¢ CORE (NT) 3-Dimensional (3D) software program. It is hypothesized that women consuming 1 serving of beef per day for 30 days will have the highest plasma levels of the beef rich nutrients and demonstrate the highest visual cognitive performance and improvement as compared to the no beef control. ;
