HMB Xtr from Svensson contains a high dose HMB (HydroxyMethylButyraat) and WPI (Whey Protein Isolate).
HydroxyMethylButyrate is a metabolite or breakdown product of the amino acid leucine. This substance is popular in power sports (muscle mass) and in the elderly (muscle loss). Proteins contribute to the growth of muscle mass. HydroxyMethylbutyrate is involved in cellular repair which aids in the growth and repair of muscle tissue. In the diet you can find HMB in citrus fruits (eg grapefruit), and some fish (eg catfish), but in too low concentrations to reach a daily dose of 3 g.
HMB protects your muscle mass by minimizing protein breakdown.
HMB supports the maintenance of muscle mass (e.g. muscle recovery after training/sports performance)
Various scientific studies show that the use of this substance in combination with WPI significantly increases muscle mass and also increases muscle strength. At the same time, fat breakdown and conversion into energy is stimulated. This product protects you from overtraining without unwanted side effects.
Tips for using HMB
Suitable for strength athletes, but also for explosive athletes such as sprinters in athletics, swimmers, track cyclists, judokas and karatekas.
HMB can also be useful for non-athletes. In the elderly it can be used to maintain muscle mass. Further research is ongoing in the prevention of muscle atrophy due to bed rest or other factors. Identical in case of cachexia or extreme thinness due to cancer or infectious diseases such as TB, Aids,..
