HMB 1000 mg by GNC Pro Performance lists 2 ingredients, 2 with an amount per serving of 4 tablets, such as 1,000 mg of hmb and 200 mg of monopotassium phosphate. Its current label entered the NIH Dietary Supplement Label Database on June 23, 2017.
What is in HMB 1000 mg?
Each row as the label prints it, per serving of 4 tablets. The capsule beside an amount places it among every product in the NIH database that lists the same ingredient: the bar is the middle half of their amounts, the line in it the median, the whiskers the 10th and 90th percentiles; the green tick is the FDA Daily Value and the red dashed tick the adult upper limit (IOM).
| Ingredient | Amount | % DV | Among products listing it |
|---|---|---|---|
| Hmbas Calcium Hydroxymethyl Butyrate Monohydrate | 1,000 mg | 60% of 97 products listing calcium hydroxymethylbutyrate give more (median 1.5 g). Per day at the most servings: 3 g. | |
| Monopotassium Phosphate | 200 mg | 4%* | The label names the compound (Monopotassium Phosphate); its amount is likely the compound's weight, not the potassium it holds, so it is not placed among other products. |
* % Daily Value computed from the printed amount and the FDA Daily Value (21 CFR 101.9); the label prints none for that row.
