Clinical Test Prove physique’s Competitive
Edge
By Jim Whittam, PhD
One
thing I have learned over the years of doing research is
that you not only need to know what it is that you are looking
for, you also need to understand what it is you have found.
The development of physique work out maximizer supplement
is a perfect example of this.
While
researching Shaklee meal shakes and slim drink mix a few
years ago, we discover that the right balance of protein
with carbohydrates produce a greater secretion of insulin
into the blood than did either carbohydrate or protein alone.
We were excited enough by these findings to publish the
initial data in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.
The Physique Story
A few
years later, we began to focus our attention on the area
of sports nutrition .in our extensive reading and investigation
into the physiology and biochemistry of exercise, we realized
that insulin was the body’s natural biochemical trigger
for stimulating recovery and rebuilding after exercise.
it was
at this point that the light bulb turned on. Based on our
earlier work with protein carbohydrates combinations, we
realized that if we could develop a food that would not
only provide the nutritional building blocks for recovery,
but also flip the metabolic switches to hasten recovery
and make optimal use of those building blocks, we would
have a product like none other on the market.
We hypothesized
that a combination of carbohydrates and proteins would provide
the answer by stimulating the body’s production of insulin
and by enhancing muscle glycogen resynthesis, allowing the
body to restore muscle energy faster thus recovering faster
after exercise.
-
How insulin and chromium help build muscle
-
Increased uptake of amino acids … both in speed
and number.
-
Increased assembly of amino acids into muscle protein.
From a
sports text: "Insulin's participation in protein synthesis,
or anabolism, is not limited to bringing raw materials
into the muscle cell. It also promotes the assembly
of amino acids into protein through its effect on the cell's
genetic material, DNA and RNA (similar to the steroids).
The net effect of all of this is increased protein available
for building muscle tissue. Then combined with resistance
exercise, this results in more muscle development and fat
loss. Insulin is the body's primary anabolic hormone. Testosterone,
the substance from which anabolic steroids are derived,
does have anabolic effects, but they are secondary to those
of
insulin
THE THREE BRANCHED CHAIN AMINO ACIDS (BCAAS)
PLUS THE OTHER 6 ESSENTIAL AMINO ACIDS
Do not
buy a muscle-building product based on the number of grams
of protein.
-
Look
at the BCAAs, valine, leucine, and isoleucine. 2. The
muscle is 35% BCAAs which are broken down rapidly during
a workout. 3. After a workout, the muscle is starved
for the BCAAs, which also pull in the other 6 essential
amino acids
-
Needed
to build muscle and aid in recover. The other 6 "spare"
or protect the BCAA's.
-
In
the first 3 hours after a workout, the BCAAs account
for 50% of the total amino acid uptake. That is why
-
You
consume a power drink immediately after a workout and
then again within 2 hours.
-
Physique's
amino acid profile is unique.
-
There
are 10,000 mg of essential amino acids in a serving.
-
An
astounding 44% of these are BCAAs.
-
I know
of no other drink with that profile.
From a sports text: "For the athlete,
the BCAAs have great promise. They can be used to actually
produce better performance. In fact, they are similar to
anabolic steroids in their effect on athletic performance,
but they have none of the side effects associated with steroids.
Besides their tissue sparing properties, they have potent
anabolic (building) qualities, and they yield metabolic

that boost your energy production for long-term sports activities."

COMPARISON.
In comparing
Physique by the ShakIee Corporation to some 50 randomly
chosen "muscle" products, we find the following: v
It is the only one whose delivery system has
been clinically tested (published
ill
a referred nutritional
-
Journal)
to raise insulin levels.
-
It
is the only one with chromium nicotinate.
-
It
is the only one with the unique ratio of carbohydrate/protein
- 2.7.
-
It is the only one mentioned lactose-free. (Over
30% of Americans have lactose problems.)
-
It
is the only one listed biologically complete
with a protein efficiency ratio (PER) of3.0.
-
It
is the only one that is Kosher.
-
It
has all natural flavors.
-
It
contains no artificial colors, sweeteners or preservatives.
The label
is free of sales "hype."
