β-hydroxy β-methylbutyrate (HMB)

Type: Immune Function Agents, Vitamins, Amino Acids and Coenzymes, Other
Grade Standard: Food Grade, Medicine Grade
Shelf life: 2 Years
Application: Sport Nutrition

Main Function
1.
HMB can lower cholesterol and blood pressure.
2.
Most research shows that HMB helps increase muscle a little in people who are just beginning to train but not in well-trained athletes.
3.
Most research shows that taking HMB can slightly decrease the loss of muscle associated with aging.
4.
As a kind of new-type synthetic metabolic nutrition pharmaceutical for the person who carry on high strength sports, the HMB calcium can reduce human fat, reduce the consumption of the muscle protein, help the muscle to recover and reduce the effect of the muscle injury caused by over-fatigue, can improve the exercise intensity and endurance.
5.
HMB is that a kind of very strong immunity stimulated agent, can strengthen human body immune function, lower the blood cholesterol, can reduce the disease, prevent ageing, build up health and improve life quality.

Applications
1. Increasing strength when training involves movements like deadlifts, squats and bench press;
2. Speeds improvements in endurance performance when training involves running, cycling and rowing;
3. Increasing muscle mass gains when training to increase strength;
4. Reducing blood inducators of muscle cell damage after high training loads;
5. Reducing the recovery time needed between training sessions;
6. Reducing blood pressure and cholesterol level.

Hydroxymethylbutyrate (HMB) is a chemical that is produced when the body breaks down leucine. Leucine is an amino acid, one of the building blocks of protein. People use HMB to make medicine.
HMB is used for increasing the benefits from weight training and exercise; and for treating diseases of the heart and blood vessels (cardiovascular disease), high cholesterol, and high blood pressure. In combination with the amino acids arginine and glutamine, HMB is also used for treating weight loss, weakness, and diarrhea in people with AIDS (AIDS-related wasting).
