Hmb

What do you know about HMB. What is the best source for this?

 

[rikishi]

From what I know, HMB requires very high doses to be effective. This is extremely expensive and quite frankly not worth it.

I know that HMB was hyped big time by EAS in the 90's. It was supposed to be the next big miracle supplement with AAS like gains. I believe it never rose above the hype that surrounded it. I know some companies still add it in to proprietary blends but it is worthless imo. I think you would be better off spending your money on some BCAA, Lucine, or a good PWO product.

HMB is closely related to the BCAA Leucine.

used a lot of times in the pharma setting to treat burn victims and i believe to prevent muscle wasting with regards to certain medical disorders. ..

however, HMB is very cost-ineffective.

They say it's much more cost-effective to just take plain old Leucine. you can buy it in bulk and it's not too expensive.
