I am 27 years old and i want to consume some supplements to at least stop muscle loss or aging.
I am taking 100 g dried plums every day with calcium and vitamin D to prevent bone loss - as i read a study on humans that it does that.
But i am confused about muscle loss. I have assimilated studies on it as mentioned below.
1) there was research on FGF -2 inhibitor or p38/MAPK pathway => that reversed muscle loss but i have not been able to identify agents.
2) there are myostatin inhibitors but i want to be safe and not bulk up.
3) there is a recent study on green tomatoes but still in early stage.
4) there has been some research on reservatrol but i am iffy because of its poor bio-availability.
5) In NAD+ study , muscle loss was reversed. Do you think approaches towards increading NAD+ with CD38 inhibitors might work? again, for CD38 inhibitors, apigenin has poor bioavailbility and eating 100 g blackberries every 2 hours is the only viable option but it is too much.
Considering the efforts i have put and being not able to reach any conclusion, can you guys suggest some supplements which i can take to prevent muscle aging?
