Competitive athletes:
IGF-1 is not a drug or steroid and will not
cause you to fail a drug or urine test.
A
natural supplement for Bodybuilding and Weight Training.
How does IGF-1 boost muscle mass?
Evidence suggests IGF-1 inproves the transport of amino acids into
cells throughout the body. The amino acids are critical to the rebuilding
of tissue. Like insulin, IGF-1 also increases the uptake of glucose.
Also with insulin, it slows the speed of protein breakdown. This
is called catabolism inhibition. Thus, IGF-1 is anti-catabolic.
More great benifit of IGF-1 are that it encourages the body to use
fat in the muscle cells for fuel rather than carbohydrates. This
encourages a leaner muscle mass
ENDURANCE BENIFITS FOR ATHLETES :
A greater uptake of glucose (blood sugar) into muscle cells.
A greater uptake of amino acids into muscle cells.
More muscle-cell growth.
A reduction in muscle breakdown after workouts. Allowing for better
work outs.
Improve use of fat for energy and a corresponding decrease in the
use of carbohydrates.
IMPROVED METABOLIC PERFORMANCE:
Improved white cell production.
Restoration of lymphoid tissue.
Stimulates an increase in B and T lymphocytes.
Improves the uptake and degradation of LDL cholesterol by macrophages.
Reduces urinary hydroxy proline excretion.
Improves parathyroid D interaction to produce stronger bones.
Boosts nitrogen retention (promotes muscle preservation) and boosts
sodium excretion.
