Recommended Usage for SportsZyme:

Take 2 - 3 capsules prior to physical activity or exercise. The best results occur when they are taken with fruit juice or vegetable juice.

Physical activity in the form of muscular work or exercise demands large quantities of immediate energy. Adenosine triphosphate is the common energy source used for all biological work done within cells. The energy that is gained following the breakdown of ATP to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and inorganic phosphate (Pi) is used for skeletal muscle contraction during exercise. In addition to ATP, skeletal muscle has another high-energy phosphate called creatine phosphate (CP) that can be used for the resynthesis of ATP.

Formulated for athletic or sports-minded people, SportsZyme provides a stable source of energy during exercise or competition.

Component Benefits

Yerba mate leaf
is an herb containing high quantities of nutrients. In fact, a group of investigators from the Pasteur Institute and the Paris Scientific Society concluded that Yerba mate contains practically all of the vitamins necessary for sustaining life. It is difficult to find a plant in any area of the world that is equal to Yerba mate in nutritional value. Additional clinical studies that have been done in France, Germany, Argentina, and other countries conclude that Yerba mate leaf may actually be the most powerful rejuvenator known to man. Yerba mate rejuvenates the body and increases mental awareness through its wealth of nutrients. Unlike other rejuvenators (such as caffeine), Yerba mate does not cause side effects (such as nervousness and jitters).

Sida cordifolia
is an ancient thermogenic herb from India. It is only now being discovered by Americans who are concerned with weight control. This herb will cause a slight increase in body temperature so that your body must burn more calories in order to maintain the increase.

Creatine
is a very important nitrogenous compound which serves as an energy store after its phosphorylation by ATP to form creatine phosphate, also called phosphocreatine or phosphagen. Creatine is synthesized by a series of reactions involving three amino acids (arginine, glycine, and methionine) which quickly replaces ATP's spent phosphate group, providing instant energy to the muscle. Creatine phosphate serves as a reservoir of high-energy phosphate bonds in muscle and nerve tissues. This helps to maintain the ATP levels during muscular activity, which otherwise quickly depletes the ATP. Therefore, increased creatine phosphate levels should theoretically delay fatigue in repetitive, exhaustive, short-term exercise. Creatine phosphate is considered the high-energy phosphate "reservoir" that is used for the resynthesis of ATP, providing the most rapidly available source of ATP for muscular contraction. In addition to using creatine monohydrate, this formulation has creatine citrate, which has the advantage of providing the cells with creatine to replenish the supply of phosphocreatine as well as citrate that is a Krebs cycle intermediate for energy production.

CoEnzymeQ10
is a necessary molecule for the mitochondria to work. It is present in the mitochondria's electron transport system. This co-enzyme also participates in the Krebs cycle and helps to transfer electrons from organic substrates to molecular oxygen within the mitochondria, thus CoQ10 helps change nutrients into ATP. Cells do not directly use nutrients that are consumed in the diet for an immediate supply of energy. ATP is an energy-rich compound and is the fuel that is used for all the energy-requiring processes within the cell. CoQ10 deficiency can result in both premature aging and obesity.

Glutamine
is a non-essential amino acid found in many plants and in many proteins of the body that is necessary for the the health of connective tissue and for musculoskeletal healing. Much recent study has shown that glutamine is exceptionally important to metabolism. Dr. Douglas Wilmore of Harvard Medical School says that glutamine is a key to metabolism and also to the maintenance of muscle. In addition, it is essential for DNA synthesis, cell growth, and cell repair. It is also a primary energy source for the immune system. Dr. Alan Gaby reported in the Townsend Letter for Doctors that glutamine can reduce allergic reactions. It also promotes mental alertness and gives a lift to those who are tired or depressed. The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that glutamine is an effective way to raise hormone levels. During times of stress, muscles discharge glutamine into the bloodstream. The older you get, the more of an effect stress has on your body, resulting in more depleted levels of glutamine in your muscles. Energy and nucleic acid metabolism in immune cells also depends on an adequate supply of glutamine. Not surprisingly, research indicates that trained athletes have less stored glutamine in their body.

Protease
will assist in the delivery of nutrients and will be a beneficial assistant in the blood.
