Revolutionary New Muscle-Building Supplement Compound
Beverly’s Muscle Synergy supplement compound is a groundbreaking
breakthrough for increasing muscle growth - naturally! Each component
of Muscle Synergy has been shown individually to have a positive
effect on muscle growth. Taken in combination as they are in Muscle
Synergy you’ll experience increased strength, improved muscle recovery,
an
incredible pump, and a dramatic boost in lean muscle mass.
First, let’s take a look at the individual
components:
• Arginine has shown positive
effects on growth hormone release (that have not always panned out
in the real world), but its positive effect on nitric oxide levels
is well documented. Nitric Oxide boosts
muscle development, reverses
muscle breakdown, enhances insulin production in
the pancreas, regulates
the activity of the thymus gland,
giving assistance to the immune system, neutralizes
ammonia, helps repair skin and connective tissue, increases
sexual function in both men and women, has powerful
cardioprotective effects, and plays a part in the formation
of bone and tendons. . • The muscle building power
of beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate (HMB) has been confirmed by
several studies. But, until Muscle Synergy (which combines HMB with
Arginine - see references 1 and 2 below), its promise did not translate
into the real world.
• Glutamine has been used in
hospitals for years to maintain lean muscle tissue and speed recovery
in times of medical distress. More recently it has been embraced
by the athletic community for increased
protein metabolism and growth and decreased risk of overtraining.
• Creatine’s ability to boost
gains in strength and lean muscle mass is well recognized.
You can train heavier, get more reps and recover
quicker with creatine monohydrate.
Strategic mixtures of these muscle mass-promoting
agents have been involved in studies at the Nassau County
Medical Center in New York and the Institute of Sport and Physical
Education in Warsaw Poland. These “anabolic cocktails” combined
the individual ingredients above synergistically to increase
muscle growth at a rate far exceeding that expected from any of
the ingredients alone.
In the New York study there was a dramatic reversal of tissue wasting
in AIDS patients with an Arginine / beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate
/ Glutamine compound. During an 8 week controlled study with 68
human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients, the supplement
compound group gained an average of 6.6 pounds while the placebo
group continued to lose lean body mass! In Poland the effect of
combining Creatine Monohydrate with beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate
(HMB) produced significantly greater gains in strength and lean
body mass than either could alone.
For maximum results with Muscle Synergy:
Week 1: Supplemental Creatine
Monohydrate – 20 grams per day + 4 Tablets Muscle Synergy twice
daily on an empty stomach
Weeks 2 and 3: Creatine Monohydrate
– 5 grams per day + 8 tablets Muscle Synergy twice daily on an empty
stomach

Hi All! Here are references from Beverly research files on Muscle
Synergy. I hope this answers your questions as to why Beverly comes
out with an hmb product after 5 years. It's the synergistic effect
when combined with arginine and glutamine (and as a minor consideration
as John's research noted earlier with creatine.)
I'm going to list some url's you'll have to copy and paste into
the browser.
You can also search for yourself at Pub
Med: Use the search words: arginine hmb glutamine (type in all
three).
Remember 1 kg = 2.2 lbs
1. First reference - Cancer patients losing up to 3lbs/month
of lean mass gained an average of 1.2kg fat free mass (over 2 lbs)
in 4 weeks. Control group continued to lose muscle. Am J Surg 2002
Apr;183(4):471-9 "Reversal of cancer-related wasting using
oral supplementation with a combination of beta-hydroxy- beta-methylbutyrate,
arginine, and glutamine." Am J Surg 2002 Apr;183(4):471-9 Books.
Thirty-two patients (14 control, 18 HMB/Arg/Gln) were evaluated
at the 4-week visit. The patients supplemented with
HMB/Arg/Gln gained 0.95 +/- 0.66 kg of body mass in 4 weeks, whereas
control subjects lost 0.26 +/- 0.78 kg during the
same time period. This gain was the result of a significant increase
in FFM in the HMB/Arg/Gln-supplemented group
(1.12 +/- 0.68 kg), whereas the subjects supplemented with the control
lost 1.34 +/- 0.78 kg of FFM (P = 0.02).
2. HIV patients add average of 6.6 lbs lean mass in 8 weeks
with arginine / hmb / glutamine "Nutritional treatment for
acquired immunodeficiency virus-associated wasting using beta-hydroxy
beta-methylbutyrate, glutamine, and arginine: a randomized, double-blind,
placebo-controlled study."
Clark RH, Feleke G, Din M, Yasmin T, Singh G, Khan FA, Rathmacher
JA. Nassau County Medical Center, East Meadow, New York, USA.
RESULTS: Forty-three subjects completed the 8-week protocol, (placebo,
n = 21; HMB/Arg/Gln, n = 22). At 8 weeks, the
subjects consuming the HMB/Arg/Gln mixture gained 3.0 +/- 0.5 kg
of BW while those supplemented with the placebo
gained 0.37 +/- 0.84 kg (p = .009). The BW gain in the HMB/Arg/Gln-treated
subjects was predominantly LBM (2.55 +/- 0.75 kg) compared with
the placebo-supplemented subjects who lost lean mass (-0.70 +/-
0.69 kg, p = .003).
Hope this helped you see how we derived the formula. I'd recommend
supplemental glutamine with Muscle Synergy as
glutamine and arginine amounts were equal in the studies.
The first product to create a bridge from the medical research
labs into the real world of non-steroid bodybuilding. Now, the same
ingredients involved in the research are combined intrinsically
and synergistically to build the most potent ‘super compound’ on
the bodybuilding scene today, Muscle Synergy.
