Scientific evidence supporting the use of Branched Chain and Essential Amino Acids is skyrocketing. Benefits include less muscle protein breakdown, faster recovery and increased protein deposition. In turn, serious athletes use supplements with BCAA's, EAA's or both to augment training efforts. But regular amino-acid mixtures are notoriously difficult to assimilate, making it an expensive to achieve training-amplifying dosage levels. Borrowing the industry's most efficient delivery mechanisms, the Research & Development Team at Nutrabolics created Growth Factor, a new breed of amino acid supplement that's economical and yields truly measurable results. GROWTH FACTOR TACTICS: Spike Blood Levels with Highly Bioavailable BCAA's and EAA's To Deliver the Full Benefits of Amino Acid Supplementation When it comes to ingesting amino acids orally, the exact mechanisms or kinetics involved in the digestion and absorption are not fully understood. What is known is that, once ingested, amino acids must pass through the highly destructive stomach-acid medium; thus, getting effective ratios of BCAA's and EAA's into the blood simultaneously can become difficult and expensive. To get blood levels of these highly effective amino acids into an optimal range, many athletes resort to a mass-absorption strategy (i.e., taking more than what's needed because absorption is restricted). Optimizing the fate of these key amino acids was the impetus behind Growth Factor - using esterification science to protect amino acids from stomach destruction results, delivering more to muscles more effectively, and at a fraction of the cost of using primitive regular amino acid supplements. GROWTH FACTOR INTEGRALS: Esterified Essential Amino Acids & BCAA's For Maximum Absorption and Lean-Tissue Support Esterified Essential Amino Acid Complex - Supplementing with EAA's provides tremendous benefits to athletes including increased muscle protein synthesis and enhanced muscle recovery. A recent group of studies created excitement among researchers when they showed that muscle growth (muscle protein synthesis) is directly proportional to the amount of Essential Amino Acids in your blood stream during the critical hours of training and recovery, if EAA's are doubled an athlete more than doubles his rate of growth and recovery. In one study, researchers infused Essential Amino Acids into subject's blood stream and found a direct and powerful relationship between the amounts of EAA's in the blood stream and protein synthesis. Doubling the blood EAA level from 1.3 (mmol/l) to 2.6 (mmol/l) resulted in nearly a four-time increase in protein synthesis. Growth Factor increases the uptake these critical Amino Acids by adding an ethyl ester group, which acts as a "chaperone" molecule to maximize uptake and absorption. Esterified Branched Chain Amino-Acid Complex - The branched chain amino acids (BCAA's) are of special importance for athletes. The Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA's), so named because of their unique branched chemical structure, are essential in that the body cannot make them from other compounds. In recent times, these amino acids have been investigated for their potential anti-catabolic (preventing muscle breakdown) and anabolic (muscle building) effects. Growth Factor increases the uptake these critical amino acids by adding an ethyl ester group, which acts as a "chaperone" molecule to maximize uptake and absorption. * Uses Highest Quality Ethyl Ester Technology * Includes a BCAA and EAA Infused Hyper-Growth Complex * Supports Maximum Utilization and Absorption * May Support Anabolism and Aid in Crushing Catabolism * Designed to Support Recuperation, Recovery and Repair * Aids in Muscular Endurance * Stomach Friendly
