HMB
Beta-Hydroxy beta-methylbutyric acid, a metabolite of the essential amino acid leucine, synthesized in the human body.
Today I had the first day of this 2 day healing workshop to attend as part of my profession. During which one of the lecturers introduced me to an amino acid that actually speeds the growth of new muscle by compounding the old with the new.
Its super fast way to add lean muscle.
Every day I get closer to my goals.
What is HMB? How can HMB help me?
During exercise, muscles are damaged, causing muscle protein to break down. HMB, a metabolite of leucine (a branched-chain amino acid), helps prevent protein breakdown.
Taking protein and amino acids after a workout can help replace lost protein, and build more. The presence of HMB signals muscle cells to preserve the existing muscle, thereby promoting additional muscle growth and faster muscle development and recovery.
This helps you build muscle mass, muscle strength, and muscle endurance.
Ensure has this type of amino acid in it. The chocolate flavor is great and its quick to get in the system.
When I looked it up once I got home I found lots of information on it!

I wonder what tomorrow holds?
