A supplement primarily intended to enhance the ability of a person to participate in an intense physical activity that needs power and strength along with oodles of endurance, HMB is ideal for physically active individuals and athletes.
What is it?
Derived from leucine, an amino acid, HMB is a short chained fatty acid that has strong anti-catabolic and anabolic properties. The anabolic properties ensure that there is gain in muscle mass while the anti-catabolic properties ensure that muscle is not destroyed during the intense physical activity. This is because after a high intensity workout, the human body gets into a catabolic mode where muscle proteins are destroyed.
This is why HMB is synthesised in the body. The defensive mechanism in the body produces HMB, in order to fight against the catabolism that destroys muscle mass. HMB stands for beta hydroxyl beta methylbutyrate.
How does it work?
While on one side it enhances the ability of the body to extract energy out of tissue and on the other side it prevents the destruction of muscle proteins. So it also helps in reducing the fat tissue in the body. HMB is very useful for athletes who are involved in intensive physical training and would want to build the weight of lean muscle mass. Proper supplementation of HMB in the body ensures that the regeneration is speeded up after training. This also enhances the rate of protein utilization in the body, stimulating the body to develop muscles, thereby gaining muscle mass too. A lot of people take HMB while taking their protein shake, resulting in massive gains in strength and power too.
Another important benefit of this supplement is that it is a safe and efficient way of gaining lean muscle mass unlike a lot of other products which might have their own side effects. The benefits of this product are well documented making it far safer and useful supplement.
