  • Comment: While the acronym "HMB" might seem more ambiguous relative to using the article title, some of the reviews of clinical studies with this compound focus exclusively on either the conjugate acid (β-hydroxy β-methylbutyric acid) or the conjugate base (β-hydroxy β-methylbutyrate). "HMB" refers to both, every review uses the acronym "HMB", and both forms are commercially available.
