Official title

Effects of HMB Supplementation on Muscle Mass Following ACL Reconstructive Surgery

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a primary stabilizer of the knee, and thus when ACL injury occurs participation in physical activity is compromised. Reconstructive surgery is often necessary to repair the damage which is then followed by a regimen of physical therapy in order to regain full activity. Nutritional intervention after the surgery could help the patient maintain muscle mass during recovery, thus allowing for a quicker return to normal activity.
