The subject of numerous medical trials, HMB has firmly established itself in the athletes’ arsenal for the assault on catabolism. Oral HMB supplementation has been shown to partly prevent exercise - induced proteolysis and muscle damage from resistance training. It's use also resulted in increases in strength and lean muscle mass!

Although HMB (beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate) is a metabolite of the branched chain amino acid leucine and it's analog alpha-ketoisocaproate (KIC), indications are that plasma HMB is derived solely from leucine. The obvious exception to this would be when HMB occurs naturally, e.g. Catfish, alfalfa and grapefruit, although it is found in only small amounts in these. Leucine itself only converts to HMB at the rate of about 5%, demonstrating that leucine supplementation would also be an impractical approach to boosting HMB levels.
