HMB (3-hydroxy-3-methylbutyric acid) amino acid metabolite - muscle
HMB High-Activity Powder / β-Hydroxy-β-Methylbutyrate / Promotes Muscle Synthesis, Fatigue Recovery, Improves Exercise Performance / Supplements, Sports Nutrition Foods
HMB is a metabolite derived from the essential amino acid leucine that promotes muscle protein synthesis and suppresses muscle breakdown. It supports recovery after exercise and enhances muscle strength.
HMB (β-Hydroxy-β-methylbutyrate) is a high-function amino acid derivative that is naturally produced in the body as a metabolite of the essential amino acid leucine. This product exhibits excellent effects in promoting muscle protein synthesis, suppressing muscle breakdown, and enhancing recovery efficiency after exercise, and is widely used in sports nutrition, functional foods, supplements, and health food ingredients. HMB is reported to contribute to the maintenance and increase of muscle mass, maximizing training effects, and preventing muscle loss due to aging and stress. Additionally, it is expected to support endurance improvement, fatigue recovery, and enhance exercise performance, offering a wide range of health benefits. This product is provided as high-purity HMB powder through advanced purification technology, ensuring excellent absorption and stability. It is easy to incorporate into supplements and functional foods, and can be adapted for various formulations such as beverages, capsules, and tablets.
