Muscular structure declines as we age — taking strength, mobility, and overall health with it. Fight back with a healthy lifestyle, regular resistance training, and Muscle Strength & Restore Formula from Life Extension®. This unique combination of β-hydroxy β-methylbutyrate (HMB) and vitamin D3 helps maintain muscle mass, build strength, and support healthy, sustained muscle function. Take this convenient, unflavored powder with any of our protein shake mixes or with a beverage of your choice.
Benefits at a Glance:
HMB is a bioactive metabolite of the branched-chain amino acid leucine. HMB has been shown to help maintain muscle function and support muscle growth — especially for those over 65. Vitamin D3 has well-documented benefits for muscle health and healthy bone density. Now, both ingredients are available in a single, convenient supplement.
HMB for muscle protein balance and exercise performance
Skeletal muscle health requires a balance between anabolism (muscle growth) and catabolism (muscle breakdown). And as we age, we become more susceptible to anabolic resistance, where our body's ability to rebuild muscle slows down, even in the presence of necessary amino acids.
The result is a decline in muscle mass and strength. HMB has beneficial effects on muscle mass by helping to preserve the structural integrity of your muscles and supporting muscle growth. HMB also supports exercise performance during both resistance and endurance training.
