HMB 1000mg Double Strength - 90 Tabs

HMB – The Natural Metabolite for Muscle Maintenance*

HMB, or ß-Hydroxy ß-Methylbutyrate, is a clinically researched, naturally occurring metabolite of the branched-chain amino acid leucine. In the body, HMB normally plays a role in the regulation of protein breakdown, helping to preserve lean muscle tissue.* Therefore, when combined with regular exercise and a healthy diet, HMB can help to maintain muscle strength and mass.* In addition, it may help to enhance recovery from intense exercise.*

NOW® Double Strength HMB has twice the HMB (1,000 mg per tablet) as in our regular strength product (500 mg per capsule). So if you're looking for an extra edge in your workout recovery or muscle maintenance*, Double Strength HMB from NOW® is a great choice.

How Does HMB Work?

HMB is produced when leucine is broken down in the body. Leucine is an essential amino acid that cannot be made by the body and must be obtained through diet or supplementation. When leucine is metabolized, it produces alpha-ketoisocaproate (KIC). KIC can then be further metabolized into HMB. The amount of HMB naturally produced in the body depends on how much leucine is available. Supplementation with HMB can help to increase blood levels of HMB.*

In addition to its role in protein regulation, HMB has also been shown to support immune function and glucose metabolism.* While more research is needed to determine all the ways in which HMB may benefit health, the available evidence suggests that it is a well-tolerated nutrient with a wide range of potential applications.*

If you're looking for a natural way to help preserve muscle mass* and enhance exercise recovery*, try NOW® Double Strength HMB. With twice the amount of active ingredient as our regular strength product, it's easy to add this clinically researched metabolite* to your workout routine. Try it today!
