HMB Supplement for Muscle and Brain Health?

[fast_eddie]

I was alerted to the potential benefit of this supplement by a family member with Parkinsons. A benefit for sarcopenia is also mentioned. I haven't tried it yet.

The recommended dose of HMB for seniors is 3 grams per day. This dose is well-tolerated and has been shown to be effective in reducing muscle loss and increasing muscle mass in older adults. HMB can be taken in divided doses throughout the day, or all at once. It is important to note that HMB should not be taken by pregnant or breastfeeding women, or by people with liver or kidney disease.

Here are some additional things to keep in mind when taking HMB:

HMB is most effective when taken alongside resistance training.

HMB may interact with some medications, so it is important to talk to your doctor before taking it.

There is some evidence that HMB may increase the risk of heart arrhythmias in people with a history of heart problems

to Kuanyin,

Hydroxymethylbutyrate (Hmb):

Can also be used for killing common house roaches.......Just pour a bit of the powder into any corner in your home, this attracts roaches. Next put on your pointed toe Tuxedo Dress shoes and stomp the buggers as they're chilling out in the corner(s).... Guaranteed to work.....

Not endorsed by Better Homes and Gardens.....

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.
