Beta-Hydroxy-Beta-Methylbutyrate (HMB)

HMB is beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate. Preparations and studied doses can differ. Advanced Muscle Plus labels calcium HMB monohydrate as myHMB; the labeled salt amount is not an independently verified free-HMB equivalent. A branded ingredient or ingredient trial does not establish efficacy of a finished multi-ingredient product.
