Bodybuilding Q & A

Q: What is the best protein source to increase muscle mass?

 

A: The best protein source to reach your goal is Amino Influx. The reason is you want a variety of protein, both fast and slow digesting. The following ingredients are found in Amino Influx and why they are important to maximize muscle mass.

 

Whey Protein

Whey protein is an excellent source of the essential amino acids. Essential amino acids are the building blocks for healthy muscles, skin, nails and other body tissue. Whey protein is absorbed quickly and efficiently into the body. The increased levels of amino acids in the blood, are taken up by the muscles quickly and ultimately build muscle mass. Amino Influx contains both the isolate and concentrate forms.

 

Egg Protein

Egg protein is easily digested and absorbed by the body. It contains the highest level of essential amino acids, branched chain amino acids, and glutamic acid.  Egg protein is the perfect protein for optimal muscle growth and recovery. Egg protein is also high in sulfuric amino acids, which are essential to the body’s hormone production.

 

Milk Protein Isolate

Milk Protein Isolate is derived from both casein and whey protein. These proteins are sent through an ultra filtration process that leaves the Isolate form. Since both casein and whey are used in the processing, Milk Protein Isolate possesses a high nutritional value. Due to its slow releasing nature (it takes 90-minutes to be fully released into the bloodstream), it is an excellent source of protein

for building and maintaining lean muscle mass.

 

 Micellar Casein

Micellar casein is a powerful anti-catabolic protein that gets released in the bloodstream slowly. Because of its unique time-released qualities, micellar casein is a highly effective, muscle-protecting protein. Micellar casein has many naturally occurring bioactive components; glutamine; immuno-supportive properties; and growth factors, which improve the immune system and enhances muscle growth.

 

Glutimine Peptides

Glutamine is the most abundant, non-essential amino acid in the muscles. Glutamine has the ability to support protein synthesis, muscle-cell hydration, and immune function, while limiting muscle catabolism. Glutamine peptides are bonded to other amino acids with peptide bonds. Peptide-bonded glutamine enhances bioavailability of glutamine in the blood-stream. In other words, it is more stable and better assimilated by the muscles than regular L-Glutamine.

 

Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCTs)

Medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) are fatty acids that are more easily digested by the body than other fats. MCTs are unique forms of dietary fat that resemble carbohydrates as a direct energy source for the body.

The difference is MCTs support thermogenesis (the process in which your body produces heat by increasing fat burning). MCTs have other health benefits such as enhancing immune function, appetite suppression, weight loss and increased endurance during exercise.

 

Aminogen

Aminogen is a clinically proven designer enzyme system developed by Triarco Industries.

Aminogen is a natural, plant-derived enzyme which is ideal for increasing lean body mass, strength and recovery. In fact, Aminogen has been clinically proven to increase the BCAAs in protein by 250%, raise amino acid levels by over 100% and boost nitrogen retention levels by 32%! Aminogen accomplishes all this while reducing or eliminating the gas, bloating and constipation protein can sometimes cause.
