The
branched-chained amino acids,
lysine, phenylalanine, methionine, and tryptophan are essential to
tissue growth and repair; however, they can't be manufactured by the
body and therefore must be obtained through dietary consumption. They
promote the healing of bones, skin, and muscle. They also regulate
blood sugar levels, so they must be taken in a balance to insure proper
regulation.
Phenylalanine is
often used to treat depression. It is a precursor to the
neurotransmitter, norepinephrine and aids in memory. It should be
avoided by phenylketonurics (PKU)
The body uses methionine to derive the brain food, choline. It also aids in digestion, as well
as serving as a fat burner. It can interact with other substances to detoxify harmful agents,
and is essential for the production of cysteine and taurine.
L-Tryptophan acts as an sleep aid, as demonstrated by the drowsy feeling we sometimes
experience after Thanksgiving dinner (turkey meat has a relatively high amount of tryptophan.).
It is also necessary for the production of niacin and is used by the body to make the
neurotransmitter, serotonin.
Clinical trials are currently underway in the United States at the Veterans Administration
Medical Center in Bay Pines, Florida under the direction of Martin Robson, M.D.
These observations have their origin in the fact that
whey protein contains high levels of amino acids,
which may be important to wound healing. These amino acid include
arginine, glycine, and particularly the branch-chained amino acids
(BCAA) leucine, isoleucine and valine, which are essential to promote
healing of bones, skin, and muscle tissues. Another amio acid, proline,
aids in the production of collagen, heals cartilage and strengthens
joints, tendons and cardiac muscle.
In the age where so many
nutritional supplements
are highly developed with the most technological advancements, the
question of quality and excellence is quite often an issue. Because of
the increasingly competetive market,
ProtaQuest has taken the well-needed lead in quality and price.
Seeing the huge demand for an
economically priced superior Whey Protein,
ProtaQuest has been able to mass-produce one of the finest Protein
powders available today. Knowing the importance of precise protein
intake, ProtaQuest has gathered all of the most crucial factors that
athletes need in their daily protein supplementation, and put it all
into one excellent product.
ProtaQuest has the perfect balance of the
highest quality protein (with naturally occurring, high glutamine content),
high branched chain amino acid content, and
high protein fractions like lactoferrin, lactoperooxidase and glycomacropeptides. And in addition to this exceptional muscle building formula,
Precision Whey Protein
also provides a complete amino acid profile with advanced solubility
and digestibility. All this processed by micro and ultrafiltration for
the most complete and undenatured protein.
And to make your decision for the best protein product easier,
ProtaQuest Precision Whey Protein
is available in the three most requested flavors, Chocolate, Vanilla
