Recovery

Recovery is a powder food supplement containing carbohydrates, Creatine, L-Glutamine (KyowaQuality®), Beta Alanine (Carnosyn®) and mineral salts. It is useful in cases of low dietary intake or increased requirement in athletes under intense muscular strain who require targeted supplementary support and restoration of the energy reserves consumed during physical activity. Creatine is naturally present in the human body, mainly in skeletal muscles and a small part in the brain and heart. Glutamine is an amino acid defined as 'conditionally essential', i.e. it plays a key role in maintaining homeostasis and certain functions during particular physiological situations, such as excessive muscle stress. Its main functions are to help prevent muscle catabolism in subjects subjected to intense effort and improve muscle recovery by supporting cellular hydration and promoting glycogen synthesis, especially during periods of high training intensity and low-calorie diets. Glutamine is also used as an alternative source of energy by delaying the feeling of fatigue. Beta Alanine is an amino acid precursor of carnosine, which, once synthesised from L-histidine, buffers (controls) skeletal muscle pH and helps delay the onset of lactic acid-induced muscle acidosis during muscular exertion. This makes it possible to endure intense training for longer and aids recovery after prolonged exertion. Vitamin B6 contributes to normal protein and glycogen metabolism. The product is supplemented with a balanced mix of minerals useful for normal muscle contraction such as potassium and magnesium.
