Are you bored with the usual #salad? ..and, are you bored with the usual dressing? Try this: mâche lettuce, grapefruit, avocado, cauliflower, and alpha-alpha sprouts, all seasoned with my favorite sauce (which I made myself!) made by mixing together #chlorella powder, toasted sesame oil, hemp seed oil, and pink salt. . What do you think? Will you try it? . But what do avocado and grapefruit have in common besides being two fruits? . The answer is HMB (beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate) . "HMB is also present in insignificant quantities in certain foods, such as alfalfa, asparagus, avocados, cauliflower, grapefruit, and catfish ". * . . HMB is a substance originating from the #metabolism of leucine, an essential amino acid (it is one of the three branched amino acids). . As is known, leucine is of considerable importance for the growth and resistance of muscle tissue; it promotes protein synthesis in the muscles and also in the liver; it is able to slow down the decomposition process of muscle proteins and promotes regenerative processes. It also carries out the ketogenic activity (in other words, it can be converted into ketones) and can, therefore, support the metabolism in fasting periods. . "HMB, in particular, has been shown to enhance gains in muscle mass and strength"* and in the world of bodybuilding, it is used as a supplement for its alleged anti-catabolic activities (with a reduction in #DOMS, delayed-onset muscle soreness). Another property attributed to HMB is immunomodulatory. . * https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beta-Hydroxy_beta-methylbutyric_acid * https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3690694/ # . #grapefruit #avocado #detox #hmb #grapefruit #buddhabowls #veganfood #green #aminoacids #musclefood #gainsgainsgains #anticatabolic #vegan
