Abstract

Combined creatine monohydrate (CRE) and β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate (HMB) supplementation may counteract age-related declines in functional capacity, yet evidence in physically active older adults is scarce.

The following analysis is generated by AI and may contain errors. It is separate from the authors’ abstract and is not peer review.

Research summary

Combined creatine and β-hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate supplementation improves functional performance and metabolic health in older adults. The study addresses age-related declines in functional capacity, which is a key aspect of longevity research.
