I'm a complete noob when it comes to supplements. Tried searching but didn't come up with jack.
So true.Chad Hamilton said:HMB = Deca according to Mr. Phillips.

If you're on a diet with an ample amount of carbs, you're probably better off going with a different creatine supplement without HMB. Basically the HMB helps prevent muscle loss during a period of restricted calories. A bodybuilder might use it a couple weeks out from a contest when they're dropping calories to burn off the last bit of bodyfat. It's decent for short term use.

Betagen is just Creatine and HMB with a little flavoring added. HMB is pretty worthless, and if you're going to use creatine, you might as well use the pure stuff and save some money.
