NUTRITIONAL PRODUCTS COMPRISING BETA-HYDROXY-BETA-METHYLBUTYRATE

摘要

Disclosed are shelf stable nutritional products including beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate (HMB) and an oxidatively active species such as iron or copper. The HMB restricts the capacity of the oxidative species to catalyze the oxidation of nutrients such as fatty acids and vitamins thereby imparting both nutritional benefits and sensory benefits to the nutritional products.
