Systematic review
Supportive
Effects of Protein and Essential Amino Acid Supplementation in Lower-Limb Surgery
Hayagawa, et al. • Nutrients, 2023
What the research found:
Nutritional enrichment via oral protein and EAA supplementation around lower-limb surgery may improve selected recovery timelines and skeletal architecture compared with standard post-operative care.
Why it matters for LeanGevity:
Supports broad clinical rationale for targeted amino acid support during catabolic and recovery-sensitive conditions.

Meta-analysis
Supportive
Effects of Resistance Exercise and Essential Amino Acid Supplementation on Muscle Quality
Jiang, et al. • Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2024
What the research found:
Integrated resistance exercise combined with EAA supplementation showed improved muscle density measurements, enhanced metabolic power, and greater myofibrillar responses compared with exercise alone.
Why it matters for LeanGevity:
Supports pairing EAA with resistance exercise for synergistic muscle maintenance and restoration paths.

Umbrella review
Supportive
Ergogenic Benefits of HMB Supplementation on Body Composition
Mesquita, et al. • Nutrients, 2023
What the research found:
Umbrella analysis indicated highly significant pooled improvements in muscle retention index, whole arm strength capability, and fat-to-muscle ratio markers under supplementation.
Why it matters for LeanGevity:
Reinforces HMB as a supportive inclusion for recovery and lean-mass oriented strategies.

Systematic review
Supportive
Effects of HMB Supplementation on Muscle Mass and Strength in Sarcopenia
Li, et al. • Geriatrics, 2023
What the research found:
Randomized comparisons suggest HMB may help preserve lean mass and support functional strength improvements during ageing-related decline patterns.
Why it matters for LeanGevity:
Matches product rationale when preventing age-related muscle decline and structural weakness trajectories.

Systematic review
Mixed findings
Effects of Exercise Combined With HMB in Sarcopenia
Tong, et al. • Journal of Cachexia, Sarcopenia and Muscle, 2023
What the research found:
Combined exercise plus HMB interventions showed benefit in select endpoints, while evidence remained inconsistent across every outcome and measurement structure.
Why it matters for LeanGevity:
Highlights the need for context when interpreting muscle support evidence and where synergy with exercise may offer added value.

Effects of Choline TMG (Betaine) Supplementation on Exercise Performance
Kocapallı, et al. • Journal of Nutritional Biochemistry, 2024
What the research found:
Focused TMG (Betaine) supplementation may meaningfully support repeated-power metrics, perceived preparedness, and selected body-composition outcomes in trained populations.
Why it matters for LeanGevity:
Indicates TMG may support high-output performance and muscle strength where physical output patterns matter.

Systematic review
Controversial
Effect of GLP-1 Receptor Agonists on Body Composition
Santos et al. • Obesity Reviews, 2025
What the research found:
GLP-1 receptor agonist therapies can support total weight loss and reductions in body fat, but some studies also report reductions in lean mass during treatment.
Why it matters for LeanGevity:
Highlights the importance of preserving lean tissue and supporting muscle-focused nutrition during medically supported weight-management protocols.

Not Supportive
TMG (Betaine) Supplementation Fails to Improve Body Composition
Antunes et al. • Clinical Reviews in Food Science, 2022
What the research found:
Across available trials, TMG (Betaine) supplementation did not consistently improve body composition outcomes, including body fat or lean-mass measurements.
Why it matters for LeanGevity:
Shows that evidence for TMG is mixed depending on the outcome being studied, so claims should remain aligned with the strength of the available research.
