Nutrend HMB 4500
Nutrend HMB 4500 is an HMB capsule supplement, popular with athletes who work towards a muscular yet lean physique. HMB is formed in the body only in tiny amounts when it breaks down the essential amino acid L-leucine, so a supplement is a practical way to get it.
Key features
- 900 mg of HMB in every capsule
- HMB is a by-product of the metabolism of L-leucine, a branched-chain amino acid
- Reaching a meaningful amount of HMB from leucine alone would need a very large intake
- Convenient capsule format
- Well-known product in the Nutrend range
HMB stands for beta-hydroxy beta-methylbutyrate. It is widely used in gyms and strength sports, and capsules make it simple to take a measured amount without weighing powders.
It fits easily alongside other sports nutrition products such as protein, creatine or BCAAs.
