Long used by athletes to improve strength and exercise performance, creatine is being recognized as more than a muscle building supplement. Creatine is present in the body.
Skeletal muscle, heart, brain, and other tissues metabolize creatine and use it as a major energy storage form. Creatine boosts levels of ATP in the mitochondria, the cell’s energy powerhouse.
While studies have shown that creatine may indeed help build muscle and strength in explosive short duration activities, other research has demonstrated the supplement’s role in improving lean muscle mass.
Whey protein isolate can build lean muscle and prevent protein breakdown. It has also been shown to enhance the production of glutathione, the body’s natural antioxidant.
Glutathione detoxifies harmful compounds in the body and boosts cellular immune function. Whey protein has been shown to enhance glutathione levels, thereby improving immune function.
Glutamine is a nonessential amino acid that generates energy and helps to increase exercise endurance. As an immune booster, glutamine improves intestinal function by allowing better absorption of nutrients.
Life Extension’s Creatine Whey Glutamine Powder contains micronized creatine for optimal assimilation. The whey has gone through a crossflow microfiltration process, which allows the product to retain its important subfractions in natural proportions.
