HMB is an amino acid derived from the breakdown of leucine, a component of regular protein. It can also be found in foods like alfalfa and is a natural component of breast milk. HMB was discovered in 1950 and has been studied for several decades, but it became a sports supplement only in 1995.
HMB has been shown to slow down the breakdown of muscle tissue while simultaneously promoting the increase of lean muscle mass. Studies indicate that HMB reduces cholesterol and helps strengthen the immune system. It is an active metabolite of the branched-chain amino acid leucine. HMB is a popular supplement in all Applied Nutrition products, typically taken post-workout.
