Ingredients explained
HMB (as Calcium HMB, beta-hydroxy beta-methylbutyrate monohydrate)
HMB is a leucine-derived metabolite that may help reduce muscle protein breakdown and support muscle protein synthesis signaling in response to training.
Caution: Take with water and avoid exceeding suggested use, as higher intakes may cause digestive discomfort.
Calcium
Calcium provides the mineral counterion for HMB and also supports normal muscle contraction and cellular signaling.
Caution: Consider total daily calcium from diet and supplements to avoid excessive intake, which may cause gastrointestinal upset in some people.
How they work together
HMB supplies a leucine metabolite that influences muscle protein turnover, while the calcium salt form delivers mineral support for normal muscle contraction and helps stabilize the HMB compound.
