The effects of beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate (HMB) and HMB/creatine supplementation on indices of health in highly trained athletes

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to investigate the effects of 6 wk oral supplementation of beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate (HMB) and HMB combined with creatine monohydrate (HMBCr) on indices of health in highly trained athletes. Blood monocyte and lymphocyte counts showed no within-group changes for HMB or HMBCr supplementation but were significantly different from the control.

Substrate utilization during exercise performed with and without glucose ingestion in female and male endurance-trained athletes

Article Abstract:

A study was conducted to test the hypothesis that there may also be gender differences in exogenous carbohydrate (CHOexo) oxidation during exercise. The results showed that, the reduction in endogenous CHO oxidation with CHOexo intake was greater in females (12.9 plus mn 3.1%) than in males (5.1 plus mn 2.0%; p=. 05).
