ALPHAZER® BLEND PROTEIN® Volactive® Optipep® Dietary supplement Blend Protein Volactive® Optipep® is an ALPHAZER food supplement consisting of a blend of whey Protein isolated by cross-flow ultrafiltration and quality microfiltration Volactive® Ultra Whey XP, concentrated protein isolate and hydrolyzed whey protein OPTIPEP DH4®.
Blend Protein Volactive® Optipep® DOES NOT CONTAIN among the ingredients listed on the label: palm oil, maltodextrin or other added sugars, xanthan gum, or carrageenan.
Blend Protein Volactive® Optipep® is suitable for all athletes who practice intense physical activity and need a quick and effective muscle reconstruction. In fact, Protein contribute to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass, have a plastic function (of maintenance and repair of tissues), and constitute the physiological structural component of hormones, antibodies and enzymes. The product is enriched with Vitamin B6, which contributes to the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. The protein requirement and its value for athletes Today the medical scientific community finally recognizes the value of the protein intake in the athlete which must be superior to the sedentary subject to promote the performance of our muscles and the recovery processes, bearing in mind that the "protein" macronutrient is used for various physiological functions, not only those purely "plastic - structural" towards skeletal or "contractile" muscles, but also as a support in the constitution of enzymes, hormones and cells of the immune system. Several leading scientific societies, such as the "American College of Sports Medicine" recommend a protein intake of between 1.2 and 2g / kg / day for athletes, reaching 2.2-2.5 gr / kg for athletes. of Energy sports or body building, (variable and subjective based on the intensity and duration of the activity) compared to what is recommended for healthy sedentary people (0.8g / kg / day). This allows you to compensate for the greater protein requirement needed. This macronutrient was often associated with muscle building or with body building or anaerobic sports athletes, but an adequate protein intake in the diet is of fundamental importance for any athlete, including that of endurance sports, where stress and fatigue that it accumulates in performance, impacts on the level of aerobic metabolism and recalls the need to rebuild precious metabolically active muscle tissue that is easily degraded during a prolonged performance. Therefore, for there to be an efficient synthesis of new Protein and an effective adaptation from training, it is essential that Protein with a high biological value, which contain all the precious "essential amino acids" (including branched or BCAA), are present, especially in conjunction with training sessions.
When to use BLEND PROTEIN? ®
This exceptional blend of Protein with a very high biological value is characterized by an excellent and rapid digestibility and a very fast intestinal absorption capacity that sees it as a snack to be taken in the meal before the performance and especially after, when a quick supply of material is needed. protein-amino acid to counteract muscle catabolism, to maximize protein synthesis and the athlete's recovery processes.
What are whey Protein isolated by cross-flow ultrafiltration and microfiltration?
Whey Protein Isolate (WPI) is treated with special systems to remove greater amounts of fat and lactose. They have by definition an average protein content of 90%, but protein density can range from lows of 86-88% or higher.
What are whey protein concentrates?
Concentrated whey Protein (WPCs) are obtained through micro and ultrafiltration processes, which use physical filters to separate fats and lactose from the protein, without damaging it (the differences between the two are minimal and depend on the size of the filtration pores, about large. one micrometer in microfiltration and 4 times lower in ultrafiltration). In this way, a powder with a high protein content and a high concentration of bioactive elements (70-85%) is obtained. First-generation whey protein powders contained 30-40% protein and contained high amounts of lactose and fat, while the most modern whey protein-based protein powders now contain up to 70- 80% protein with reduced amounts of lactose and fat. Although WPCs contain a slightly lower concentration of Protein than an isolated form, a high-quality WPC contains all the fractions of microelements that are highly beneficial to our organism as growth factors, such as IGF-1, TGF-1, TGF-2 , various phospholipids and various bioactive lipids such as conjugated linoleic acid (CLA), and higher levels of immunoglobulins and lactoferrin.
What are Optipep DH4 hydrolyzed whey Protein?
Optipep® 90 DH4 is a trademark owned by the Irish company Carbery®. Carbery® is one of the most renowned companies in the world in the production of natural ingredients, flavors and cheeses. is a hydrolyzed whey protein that contains optimal levels of dipeptides, tripeptides and free amino acids. This maximizes the absorption capacity and effective delivery of protein nutrients, essential for facilitating muscle growth, repair, refueling and recovery.
What are the benefits and "pluses" of this special form of "predigested" / hydrolyzed protein?
