One of the most important things that you can do to deal with muscular dystrophy is to take muscle building supplements. The most widely accepted muscle building supplement is creatine. Creatine is a natural substance in the body, it also comes from some protein-rich foods such as meat or fish.
Creatine is typically used to improve strength, increase lean muscle mass and help the muscles recover after exercise. It is widely used by athletes from high school to professional sports. It is estimated that approximately 50% of college and professional athletes use creatine.
Not everyone responds well to creatine, it is not tolerated by everyone and may not work for every person. So I would suggest that if you try creatine…. research side effects and start at a low dosage of one gram and build up from there. Also, purchase high-quality German creatine, otherwise, you are wasting your money. It is recommended that you drink at least a pint of water when taking creatine….water helps the muscles absorb the creatine.
I have found that taking HMB – Hydroxyi-Methybutyrate-Monohydrate works well. HMB is a natural compound that is found in the body, it is created in the body from leucine. Studies have shown HMB decreases muscle damage after exercising. A good time to take HMB is after a strenuous exercise.
Creatine or HMB should be taken as part of a total supplement program including L- Arginine, and L-Glutamine. If you are younger than 40, HMB may not be as effective as creatine.
