HSN - EVOHMB 1000 mg - 120 Tablets

EvoHMB 1000mg by HSNsports is a food supplement made from Beta-Hydroxy-Beta-Methylbutyrate (HMB) with calcium and vitamin D. HMB is a leucine metabolite. In other words, it is a product that results from taking leucine, which is an amino acid available in high quality protein sources. Its role consists on activating a protein complex known as mTORC1 (Sancak et al. 2008). Once activated, it is in charge of starting all the protein synthesis cell processes in order to increase our muscle mass. , , However, only around a 5% of HMB comes from leucine, while a protein source has a 10% of leucine on average. Therefore, as the International Society of Sports Nutrition points out, an individual would need to take more than 600g of high quality protein to obtain the necessary amount of leucine (60 grams) to obtain the typical daily dose of 3g of HMB used in studies with humans" (Wilson et al., 2013). , This is clearly inefficient, which is why EvoHMB 1000mg includes tablets with a gram of base HMB. , High Vitamin D3 content per serving! A vitamin that supports the absorption and utilization of calcium and phosphorus. Moreover, it plays a role in the cell division and helps to preserve the muscle function. , , You can take EvoHMB 1000mg at any time of the day. In fact, the most controlled studies suggest that there are no clear acute effects related to the moment when we take HMB supplementation" (Wilson et al., 2009). Like many products, its effects seem to be due to an accumulative intake. , , EvoHMB 1000mg comes in tablets with a slot in the middle so that you can easily break them in half. Take them at any time of the day with some water so that you can swallow it easily. We suggest taking them with the meals rather than on an empty stomach in order to avoid gastrointestinal discomfort.
