HMB (beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate) is a bioactive nutrient belonging to the group of branched short-chain fatty acids, considered by some sources as a vitamin-like factor (similar to vitamins in terms of its effects), found naturally ? in small quantities ? in food, as well as produced by the human body as a result of the conversion of the branched-chain amino acid ? leucine. Numerous studies show that adding HMB to the diet can facilitate the development of lean body mass due to its positive influence on the storing of muscle proteins and the reduction of fat tissue.
As the literature suggests, this particular effect of HMB may be attributed to the: activation of kinases ? enzymes which act as a second messenger of information during the protein synthesis process, interaction with kinases during the activation of initiation complexes which trigger the elongation phase of protein synthesis, inactivation of catabolic enzymes which destroy muscle proteins, activation of steroidogenesis ? the synthesis pathway of steroid compounds, including anabolic steroid hormones, such as testosterone, impact on the activity of PPARs ? the receptors for fatty acids, stimulating the synthesis of red muscle fibres and the production of a number of proteins responsible for the transport and burning of fatty acids.

HIGH DOSED HMB CAPS. On the 8th Month October 2018; This is a decent high dosed HMB supplement from Olimp Nutrition that works great to support a range of intense fat loss phases, i tend to use HMB based products to support lean muscle mass retention during periods of caloric restriction due to its great anti catabolic effects which make it well suited for use prior to my morning fasted cardio sessions as well as a range of weight based workouts, i have tried some HMB based powders and find them hard to consume if unflavoured due to the strong bitter flavour of this supplement in powder form so prefer to go for a capsule version like this to make it easier to consume on a regular basis, these capsules provide a high 1.25 grams of HMB per serving, i feel that 3 capsules per day is a decent dose to provide great effects in relation to muscle retention during intense fat loss phases and recommend taking 1 capsule in the morning a second post workout and the last one pre bed to allow for more effective absorption. Overall i feel that this is one high quality HMB based supplement in an easy to consume high dosed capsule form from Olimp Nutrition that i recommend adding into any intense fat loss phase to improve muscle retention whilst allowing for unwanted body fat stores to be burned off as the desired fuel source, i feel this can even be used to improve recovery and support gains in lean muscle mass when bulking but recommend taking this in combination with a decent BCAA based supplement and creatine which i feel work awesome in combination with HMB to provide more of an increase in muscle size and strength.

HMB. On the 25th Month of May 2015; Very good serving size per capsule, don’t need to take several capsules just 2-4 a day, good combination to go with Creatine stacks which will help your gains by another 10%. Straight after exercise stop your muscles from braking down and long use shows many muscular benefits which helps in muscle development. If you are looking for to get very good muscle definition and reduce your recovery time this one is for you.

KING OF HMBS. On the 10th Month of October 2014; I used to take HMB Mega Caps, for about 3 months. It gave me slow, but steady gains. On an average I gained about a kilogram per month, however I have to add I had it with glutamine (10 grams) and bcaa (another 10 grams) and had it twice a day. I was very satisfied with the results of this combination. One more thing, the size of the caps is perfect, they can be easily swallowed. If you’re looking for your first HMB product, give this a try. It will surely help with your gains, just be patient.
