METHODS FOR REDUCING MUSCLE SORENESS AFTER EXERCISE USING BETA-HYDROXY-BETA-METHYLBUTYRATE

摘要

Nutritional compositions containing beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate (HMB) are administered to an individual to reduce muscle soreness after exercise. The compositions contain a source of HMB; a protein source with at least about 21% branched-chain amino acids, by weight of total protein in the protein source; and a carbohydrate blend which contains a combination of rapid release and sustained release carbohydrates.
