LAXOBULK HIGHLIGHTS

• Increases Muscle Size and Strength
• Improves Protein Synthesis
• Muscle Hardening Effects
• Controls Cortisol
• Boosts IGF-1 and IGF-2
• Reduces Aromatase

• Laxobulk™ (Smilax siebolii (rhizome) Extract) contains a powerful phytosteroid (Laxogenin) that enhances muscle protein synthesis, limits muscle breakdown, reduces cortisol, and support faster recovery.
• Apisterone™ (Apigenin) is non-hormonal anabolic phytochemical noted to increase protein synthesis, boost IGF-1 and IGF-2, enhance muscle growth, regulate cortisol, and control estrogen-promoting enzymes aromatase and 17β-HSD.
• DecaSorb Technology™ is a 2 stage absorption enhancing complex used to increase absorption and bioavailability of compounds that are normally poorly absorbed. Decasorb Tech opens spaces in bicellular and tricellular tight junctions, increasing paracellular permeability, thus allowing for enhanced intestinal permeation. It simultaneously inhibits P-glycoprotein and CYP3A4 enzymes thereby increasing bio availability of co-administered compounds.

ACHIEVE A POSITIVE NITROGEN BALANCE & BUILD LEAN MUSCLE

LEUCINE activates an anabolic pathway called the mTOR pathway that stimulates muscle protein synthesis. By increasing consumption, the mTOR pathway is signalled and protein synthesis is increased. No single ingredient has the pure, unadulterated anabolic power that LEUCINE does. Simply stated, it is essential for achieving a positive nitrogen balance and building lean muscle mass.*

A CONCENTRATED AMINO ACID

LEUCINE is one of the three branched chain amino acids (the other two being Isoleucine and Valine) and is extremely important. It is naturally found in nuts, brown rice, whole wheat, cottage cheese, chicken and fish. Unlike amino acids, which are metabolized in the liver, BCAAs are metabolized in the muscles and are integral for protein synthesis and for preserving lean muscle tissue. LEUCINE is one of the most concentrated amino acids within the skeletal muscle tissue.

LIMITING NUTRIENT

LEUCINE is so essential for the body that it is referred to as a limiting nutrient. The body absolutely requires LEUCINE in order to make use of all of the other amino acids. Without adequate amounts of LEUCINE, all other sources of protein can be deemed useless. In short, without it the body doesn’t function properly and will not make use of protein.

THE ALLMAX ADVANTAGE

Our Leucine crystalline powder has zero binders, excipients, additives or preservatives. ALLMAX did not stop there; we’ve taken the highest-grade Leucine available and made it even better. In the final stage of Leucine production, the result is a coarse crystalline structure. We’ve taken the raw crystal material and microparticulate through a complex series of processes; the result, a perfect, ultra-fine white powder that has optimal absorption levels.*

An abundant intracellular amino acid in skeletal muscle and similar to Creatine, it draws water in muscle cells and acts as a cell volumizer. This in turn draws additional nutrients for recovery and growth, increasing cell volume and enhancing muscle fullness. And like Creatine, Taurine is not present in whey protein, whereas all other essential and nonessential amino acids are. With intense exercise comes changes in electrolyte concentration both inside and outside of the cell, i.e. loss of muscle K+ and gain of Na+, Cl- and Ca2+. Detrimental changes in osmolarity are a consequence of membrane excitability driven by ion imbalance and cells combat this by manipulating organic osmolytes such as Taurine. Taurine regulates water and mineral salts in the blood. It maintains movement of potassium, magnesium and sodium across the cell membranes and regulates ion balance between cells. Due to its ability to regulate electrolytes, it may play a role in preventing muscle cramping. Taurine + Creatine: The PERFECT Cell Volumizers. It also plays a role in muscle contraction, as it has been shown to increase the rate at which the sarcoplasmic reticulum accumulates Ca2+ in both type I and type II muscle fibers. Thus, it enhances the ability of the muscles to generate force by increasing the uptake and release of calcium ions. Muscle contraction leads to an increase in nitric oxide synthase and/or nitric oxide (NO). Increases in NO have been shown to enhance glucose uptake in skeletal muscles which may enhance exercise intensity and post-exercise recovery and plays a role in Nitric Oxide production (NO gas present during muscle contraction and blood vessel dilation) and therefore may enhance the workout session and lead to a more rigorous workout. ALLMAX Essentials Taurine is a pure, free flowing, flavorless, unsweetened white crystalline powder that mixes easily, allowing you to add it to anything you like. Similar to Glutamine, it can also be considered a conditionally essential amino acid during times of intense physical training when the body may require additional Taurine due to increased physical demand.
