Met-Rx HMB is a metabolite of the essential amino acid
leucine. As with other amino acid related substances, HMB appears to
play a role in the synthesis of protein - particularly the protein that
builds new muscle. Research suggests that HMB may improve the growth of
lean muscle tissue. One study involving 28 individuals undergoing a
regular weight training programme found that supplementing with 3g of
HMB per day compared to no supplementation, contributed to greater
gains of muscle over a 7 week period. Studies also show that HMB lowers
both total and LDL cholesterol (‘bad’ cholesterol) while increasing
‘good’ HDL cholesterol. These effects were noted in individuals taking
no exercise, however in those taking regular exercise the effects were
much greater.
