Stronghold Supplement Protects Lean Muscle

Preclinical research reveals the novel dietary supplement significantly boosts key anabolic signals

PROVO, Utah, July 16, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- A new preclinical study from Brigham Young University and Unicity International reveals that the dietary supplement Stronghold significantly supports muscle growth and promotes peak body composition. The research highlights positive effects after both a single serving and long-term daily use.

Researchers found that Stronghold activates key anabolic signals that tell muscles to grow and repair. The supplement also greatly reduces protein turnover (breakdown), a process that often accelerates muscle loss during aging and dieting. After just one dose, markers for protein synthesis and glucose metabolism increased, showing muscles were primed to build tissue and use energy efficiently. With long-term intake, these benefits led to a significant increase in muscle mass and fiber size, improving body composition.

Dr. Benjamin Bikman, a lead author on the study, noted the broader implications of the findings. "Stronghold enhances muscle health and metabolic function," said Bikman. "This makes it a promising nutritional tool, especially for aging individuals or those looking to protect lean mass."

These results demonstrate a powerful shift in muscle protection and preservation, achieved without changes in diet or physical activity, positioning Stronghold as an encouraging intervention for improving overall metabolic health.
