Myoplex Deluxe - Chocolate Creme (18 packs) by EAS

Although serious fitness enthusiasts are familiar with the concept of frequent feedings throughout the day to maximize protein synthesis and strength, today’s busy lifestyle makes this practice difficult - particularly for hard-training bodybuilders who require large amounts of protein. Fortunately, with Myoplex Deluxe, solid foundation nutrition for muscle growth has never been easier!Myoplex Deluxe includes a full 53 grams of undenatured, rapid and sustained release proteins including whey isolate, micellar casein and hydrolyzed whey isolate specially formulated to maximize muscle growth. This protein blend includes over 12 grams of glutamine, glutamine peptides and glutamic acid to aid with tissue repair from tough workouts. Myoplex Deluxe offers 28g of whole-grain, low-glycemic complex carbohydrates providing 7 grams of dietary fiber for continuous nutrient delivery to muscles, sustained energy, and appetite satisfaction. Plus, each serving incorporates 1 gram of CLA to boost fat loss and lean mass gains. Rounded off with 24 vitamins and minerals, no hydrogenated oils, no corn syrup solids, and unbeatable taste, Myoplex Deluxe is the ideal meal your muscles have been craving.Q: Myoplex Deluxe contains a sizeable amount (>10.5g) of BCAAs. Why are BCAAs beneficial? A: BCAAs (Branched Chain Amino Acids) comprise of 1/3 of muscle tissue and are the first amino acids to be catabolized due to intense exercise. Therefore, dietary BCAA supplementation is particularly important for hard-training individuals looking to maximize their muscle gains. Further, BCAAs may help the body to preferentially utilize intra-abdominal fat… the fat that strains the cardiovascular system and contributes to waistline girth. Q: Why is CLA included in this blend? A: CLA, or conjugated linoleic acid, is a special omega-6 fatty acid. Research conducted over the past decade supports the contention that CLA supports fat loss and gains in lean muscle mass. CLA may also have potent antioxidant qualities which makes it ideal for hard-training bodybuilders who are at risk for exercise-induced free radical damage, thus indirectly leading to muscle gain. Q: What is micellar casein? How does it differ from calcium or sodium caseinate? A: Micellar casein is the natural, undeantured form of casein found in milk. It is separated from milk by means of ultrafiltration, without the use of chemicals, which increases the amount of bioactive milk peptides that support immune function as well as enhance muscle growth. A property of micellar casein is that it may have the ability to form a “gel” in the gut. This provides a steady release of amino acids into the blood stream, which makes it an excellent choice for a long lasting anti-catabolic protein. Q: What is brown rice syrup and why is it used? A: Brown rice syrup consists primarily of soluble complex carbohydrates that allow for both slow and steady release into the bloodstream (up to 2-3 hours). This steady supply of energy may curb hunger between meals and provide steady insulin levels to assist in optimizing fat loss.

Best CoQ10 (60 softgels - 30 mg) by Doctor’s Best

High Absorption CoQ10 and Best CoQ10 contain pure, vegetarian source Coenzyme Q10 in a base of rice powder, plus High Absorption CoQ10 contains Bioperine®, an herbal extract that enhances CoQ10 absorption.BenefitsBoosts Cellular Energy ProductionCoenzyme Q10 is a vitamin-like nutrient found in the human body. Essential to life, CoQ10 works at the cellular level to produce metabolic energy in the form of ATP. CoQ10 serves as a vital link in the electron transport chain, which is the final step in the production of ATP inside cells. Lacking adequate CoQ10, cells become energy-deficient. When cells are nourished with optimal levels of CoQ10, tissues, organs and systems function optimally. Strengthens and Protects the HeartThe heart is the hardest-working muscle in the body. Because of its high energy requirements, the heart needs to be well supplied with CoQ10 at all times. The bodys highest concentration of CoQ10 occurs in heart muscle tissue. (Heart muscle cells contain large numbers of mitochondria.) Numerous clinical studies have demonstrated significant improvements in heart function with oral administration of CoQ10.Supports Immune FunctionWhen the immune system goes into battle for us, immune cells need large amounts of energy to carry out their defensive functions. CoQ10 is required for this energy to be available. Experimental research on animals has shown that CoQ10 enhances immune functions such as the activity of phagocytes, and antibody production. Age-related immune suppression has been observed in mice given CoQ10.Antioxidant ProtectionCoQ10 is a versatile antioxidant. The reduced form of CoQ10, ubiquinol-10, has been found to protect LDL against peroxidation by free radicals more effectively than vitamin E. CoQ10 stabilizes membranes, thus protecting them from free-radical damage.Benefits the GumsA number of studies have shown that CoQ10 supports repair of gingival (gum) tissue. Gingival tissues in people with periodontal disease have been found deficient in CoQ10. In several double-blind clinical trials, oral administration of CoQ10 has resulted in significant improvements.Many Clinical BenefitsResearch studies and clinical reports suggest CoQ10 has a broad range of applications stemming from its ability to support the heart and cardiovascular system, the immune system, cellular energy production, liver function, nerves, and muscles.CoQ10 - Vitamin Es PartnerIn vitro studies suggest CoQ10 in combination with vitamin E protects LDL cholesterol from oxidation more effectively than vitamin E alone. Protecting LDL from being oxidized by free radicals is now thought to be important for cardiovascular health.

Realfood Organics Her Daily Nutrition (60 tabs) by Country Life

Her Daily Nutrition, which is a high-energy multi for women, was uniquely formulated using the Cryo-Active State process. This process, unique to Country Life, uses organic fruits and vegetables, combined with a nutrient-rich complex to deliver your daily nutrition. To preserve 100% of the bioactive vitamin, mineral, enzyme, and phytonutrient content, the Cryo-Active Atate™ process combines a proprietary fermentateion method followed by a unique cryogenic preservation. This multi supplies basic daily nutrition the way nature intended it to be: “Alive.” The proprietary fermentation and cryo-preserving process enhances absorption and elevates bioactivity using live probiotic cultures.The organic fruits and vegetables were blended using a clinical method call VeriCell™ testing. Her Daily Nutrtion has been clinically formulated using VeriCell technology to: Support cardiovascular health Increase activity of your body’s internal antioxidant system (anti-aging) Support urinary tract health Support bone strength Support proper immune healthHer Daily Nutrition also contains Calcium Fructoborate, which is a carbohydrate mineral complex that is naturally found in fruits and vegetables. It has been shown to increase vitamin D3 levels, support bone strength, increase energy levels, and optimize sex hormone balance (estrogen and testosterone). Clinical evidence indicates that Calcium Fructoborate may even be better than Glucosamine at increasing joint mobility.We added GlycoBerry 8 which is a complex of all eight essential gluconutrients that are required for the cells of our body to communicate properly. If cell-to-cell communication is malfunctioning due to a missing glyconutrient, the immune system may fail to do its job. These eight essential glyconutrients are commonly found in fruits and vegetables. Statistically, the standard American does not consume an adequate supply of fruits and vegetables. GlycoBerry 8 is added to dequately replenish the body’s needs.Organic Aloe Vera (ACTIValoe™) is added to enhance absorption (increases vitamin C absorption by 204%) and to support digestive health.VeriCell™ Testing is a clinical verification method that illustrates the effect that particular foods have on active biological processes of the body. Certain blood markers (enzymes) and their activity have been identified as tools to monitor health benefits received from certain foods. Being almost entirely derived from organic foods, Real Food Organics Her Daily Nutrition has been verified to support the following: Strongly supports an increase in the body’s internal antioxidant system and helps maintain healthier internal ORAC (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) levels. Clincal research indicates that antioxidants are key in minimizing the effects that aging has on the body. Moderately supports blood lipid balance (supports healthy HDL) by reducing the activity of CETP. If CETP (cholesteryl ester transfer protein) activity in the blood can be reducedm an increase in HDL may be realized. Increased levels of HDL have been associated with a decreased risk of cardiovascular disease. Supports healthy blood sugar balance by reducing Alpha-Glucosidase activity. Alpha-Glucosidase is an enzyme that causes the release of glucose (sugar) into the bloodstream. Clinical evidence suggests that reducing the activity of this enzyme may slow the absorption of glucose. Supports healthy blood flow through ACE reduction. ACE (Angiotensin Converting Enzyme) is a hormone that circulates in the bloodstream with a primary function of blood vessel constriction. Clinical evidence indicates that a high ACE level contributes to blood pressure issues. Research suggests that lowering ACE will support proper blood flow.
