Table of contents

Recognised as HMB, its correct name is ß-hydroxy-ß-methylbutyrate or beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate.

It is a metabolite of the amino acid L-leucine, which in turn also makes up the branched-chain BCAAs. It is produced naturally in the body through one of the essential amino acids such as leucine, so maintaining optimal levels of the medium-chain or branched-chain amino acid will be key to producing it.

If you are looking to supply your body with this metabolite, take a look at the products we offer in the category of our HSN online shop. You can also use the search filter directly.

Products in powder, capsule or tablet form can be used to obtain the recommended amounts of this substance. All our products are manufactured under the highest standards of quality and safety, being developed with the best raw materials on the market.

What is beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate or leucine used for?

ß-hydroxy-ß-methylbutyrate is an amino acid derived from the BCAA leucine that the body can produce itself, but in small amounts, according to various experts.

The human body is only able to synthesise 0.2-0.4g of HMB per day from the leucine we provide (EFSA NDA, 2011).

There are dietary supplements available to provide your body with the recommended and optimal levels of HMB methyl butyrate.

Do you want to boost the effect of HMB? Combine it with creatine and at least 5 g of the best HSN glutamine daily!

At HSN you have SportSeries and RawSeries options of ß-hydroxy-ß methylbutyrate, intended for those athletes who wish to include it in their supplementation routine along with others.

Within the different options or services that you will find in the market, there are also two types of HMBs depending on their development and manufacture.

HMB – Ca

This is the HMB format derived from the calcium salts of beta hydroxy beta methylbutyrate.

Calcium contributes to normal muscle function, making it a good ally for athletes, whether in relation to muscle mass, recovery or muscle strength.

HMB CA is available from HSN in raw or pure form or in a formula such as Evohmb, developed as HMB CA and vitamin D3. Of the latter product, the recommended intake is 3000mg of HMB, spread over 3 daily intakes of 1000mg (1 tablet).

HMB – FA

This is the HMB option in free acid form, not from the calcium salt.

At HSN you have all of them available, with the powder format being a perfect and more versatile option, as its recommended amount of intake allows you to dose it comfortably. You can take it on its own or in combination with other BCAAs.
