Methodology
Randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial of 600 mg/day gamma-oryzanol during 9 weeks of resistance training.
Key Findings

Conclusions
Limited evidence of a strength benefit from higher-dose gamma-oryzanol during resistance training.
Limitations
Small single-centre trial; contradicts earlier null trial; short duration.
Supplements Studied
Gamma-oryzanol supplementation increased muscular strength measures during chronic resistance training without changing body composition.
