1. A composition comprising:
- a. at least 250 mg of leucine and/or at least 25 mg of one or more leucine metabolites, wherein the leucine metabolite is selected from the group consisting of keto-isocaproic acid (KIC), alpha-hydroxy-isocaproic acid, and hydroxymethylbutyrate (HMB); and
b. at least 1 mg of nicotinic acid and/or nicotinamide riboside and/or one or more nicotinic acid metabolites, wherein the nicotinic acid metabolite is selected from the group consisting of nicotinyl CoA, nicotinuric acid, nicotinate mononucleotide, nicotinate adenine dinucleotide, and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide; and
wherein the composition is substantially free of alanine, arginine, asparagine, aspartic acid, cysteine, glutamic acid, glutamine, glycine, histidine, lysine, methionine, phenylalanine, proline, serine, threonine, tryptophan, valine, isoleucine and tyrosine.
