Lie back and think of science

Article Abstract:

A project run by MEDES, the French Institute for Space Medicine and Physiology in Toulouse, is working on gathering more information on how the body responds to micro gravity and how to mitigate its damaging effects on physiology. In this project, twelve women are split into three groups, one to explore the effects of exercise, one to test a high-protein diet, and the other serving as a control.
