Description

Jiang and colleagues test whether a food supplement can guard muscle while adults with obesity lose weight. Their powder adds calcium HMB, a body-made compound tied to muscle upkeep, plus extra protein. Adults ate fewer calories for twelve weeks and took the powder or a matched control drink.

In the trial with just over one hundred adults, the supplement group held its muscle mass. The control group lost muscle over the same twelve weeks. The supplement group also lost more belly fat and more total body fat. Its daily energy use held up better, and blood sugar fell a bit more. No side effects were reported in either group.
