Abstract in brief

  • The International Society of Sports Nutrition (ISSN) states that HMB can help improve muscle recovery and reduce muscle damage after exercise for both trained and untrained individuals, especially when taken close to workout times or for two weeks beforehand.
  • Taking 38 mg/kg of body mass of HMB daily has been shown to boost muscle growth, strength, and power if combined with proper exercise routines.
  • HMB appears to be safe for both young and older populations, and it also may help improve body composition by increasing lean mass and reducing fat when combined with exercise.]

HMBの効果は一応あるみたいだけど、遊離酸形態のHMB - FAが完全に解明されてない以上、手は出したくないと言う結論。 https://t.co/lSMyoKdqYK

@DrMaureenHanson Can you take a look at this supplement for MECFS? Could it be useful in overcoming the “overtrained and deconditioned” problem? Thanks! https://t.co/hsM7MG6J13
