EAS Betagen
New And Improved Betagen Now Helps Even More!
Betagen HP is the first to combine university-tested EAS HMB and
Phosphagen brand creatine monohydrate along with the amino acids
taurine and glutamine - the two most abundant amino acid in muscle
tissue. This formula is new and improved with the addition of more
glutamine, more taurine, plus the antioxidants vitamin C and E,
and a full array of B-vitmins.
This Product Was Designed To:
* Increase lean muscle mass and strength
* Supress muscle protein breakdown following exercise
* Enhance muscle energetics and recuperation
What is different about BetaGen HP from the original BetaGen?
Several additions have been made to BetaGen to enhance the overall
effectiveness of the product. These improvements include:
More glutamine (2g)-Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in
muscle tissue, and among other functions, is responsible for
recovery and repair of muscle tissue1. Research has found evidence
that glutamine is important for the maintenance of skeletal muscle
protein levels. For individuals engaged in intense exercise,
glutamine may exert a beneficial effect on immune system strength,
cell volumization, and protein synthesis.
More taurine (500mg)-Early research on the amino acid taurine
showed that it possesses insulin-mimicking characteristics that
may be valuable for nutrient transport. Current investigation of
taurine demonstrates its involvement in the control of muscular
contraction. Significant losses in taurine may decrease muscle
contractility, and consequently, exercise performance. By
offsetting taurine loss, the benefits of high intensity exercise
including strength and lean mass gains may be increased.
Vitamins C and E-Whether you lift weights or run, the body
produces free radicals. The body's internal antioxidant defense
systems can handle the challenge of dealing with free radicals at
low levels of exercise intensity, however elevated intensity
levels may require supplemental defense. The addition of vitamins
C and E may support the overall recovery process, as they provide
immune system support and antioxidant protection from free
radicals. These powerful antioxidant vitamins may help
hard-training athletes avoid the negative consequences of
overtraining. Research on the effects of vitamin C on exercise
performance indicates that ascorbic acid may prevent the formation
of exercise-induced free radicals. In a study investigating the
effects of vitamin E on recreationally weight trained subjects, it
was determined that a decrease in muscle membrane disruption and
oxidative stress was evident. What may be even more interesting
about the supplementation of these two vitamins is that vitamin C
is thought to regenerate vitamin E7, making it advantageous to use
both in conjunction to ensure optimal availability in offsetting
free-radical damage. This antioxidant combination in BetaGen HP
may help individuals recover faster from intense workouts by
diminishing the harmful effects of free radical production.
B-vitamin complex-The B-vitamin complex serves a wide variety of
functions in the body, including growth and repair of body
tissues, healthy cell development, nervous system function, and
metabolism of fats, carbohydrates, and proteins. In particular,
vitamins B6, B12, and Folic acid are important for the synthesis
of hormones and red blood cell production. Paying major attention
to vitamin and mineral intake, specifically B vitamins, zinc and
chromium, is required to optimize carbohydrate metabolism, the
ultimate limiting factor for sport performance. Ensuring that
sufficient levels of the B-complex are available in the body may
optimize the function of the nervous system and metabolically
active tissues (muscle) to achieve maximal athletic performance.
