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.

TURKESTERONE INGREDIENTS

• Ajuga Turkestanica Extract (500mg) -- contains a powerful phytosteroid like compound called Turkesterone. Turkesterone, like other ecdysteroids, may help to increase protein synthesis, nitrogen retention, limit protein breakdown and help improve recovery. Of all Ecdysteroids known, Turkesterone seems to have the strongest anabolic and adaptogenic effects! Our product uses a ajuga turkestanica extract standardizing for 10% Turkesterone, yielding a massive 50mg Turkesterone per capsule!
• Decasorb Technology (30mg) -- 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 bioavailability of co-administered compounds.

PhytoTurk (Turkesterone) is a naturally occurring phytoecdyster*** found in Ajuga turkestanica – a plant with a long history of use in traditional medicine for its anabolic, adaptogen, hepatoprotective and hypoglycemic activity. It is an analogue of the ster*** hormone 20-hydroxyecdysone. Human research has shown that resistance-training individuals given only 12mg of Turkesterone per day for 10 weeks experienced greater gains in hypertrophy and strength compared to those receiving placebo [1]. PhyoTurk contains an extremely potent 500mg 10% Turkesterone extract per capsule! How Does PhytoTurk Work? PhytoTurk builds muscle through a totally different mechanism than traditional anabolics that bind to the androgen receptor. PhyoTurk acts as a potent receptor β agonist, providing a compounding level of anabolic activity via a totally different mechanism than normal anabolics. This makes PhytoTurk an ideal compound to stack with other anabolics during a blast but can also be used in a post cycle therapy as it will not suppress natural testosterone production at all. Furthermore, naturals could introduce PhytoTurk into their regimens without the consequence of traditional stero***. What Are The Benefits of PhytoTurk? The benefits of PhyoTurk (Turkesterone) include increased muscle growth, improved muscle repair, and elevated muscle protein synthesis. Specifically, PhytoTurk works by optimizing the mRNA translation process and supporting leucine uptake to muscle cells. There’s also some evidence to support that PhytoTurk may increase muscle ATP which in turn results in increased muscular energy and endurance while working out. Lastly, Turkesterone has adaptogenic properties which have positive effects on mental
