Can a simple supplement fight frailty in aging?
NCT ID NCT05877846
Summary
This is a small, early-stage study to see if a nutritional supplement called beta-hydroxy-methylbutyrate (HMB) is practical and acceptable for older adults to use. Researchers will give the supplement to 25 people aged 65-85 with multiple chronic conditions for 12 weeks. The main goal is to learn if the study plan itself works well, while also checking for any changes in participants' strength, walking ability, and body chemistry.
