Muscle Optimeal: The Science of Superfoods
Muscle Optimeal is a high-fiber, high-protein formula designed for active individuals, providing high-quality proteins, dietary fibers, vitamins, minerals and antioxidants. Muscle Optimeal is a complete metabolic optimizer formula, incorporating nutrients known to support human performance, including a complex of complete proteins, dietary fibers (soluble and insoluble) and 23 essential vitamins and minerals. This delicious tasting blend mixes instantly into your favorite beverage (including water) for a fast, nutritious drink in a rich chocolate flavor; no blender required. Muscle Optimeal does not contain any artificial flavors or sweeteners (no Aspartame or Acesulfame K).
Muscle Optimeal Advantage
Muscle Optimeal is a Tri-Protein Blend — Each serving of Muscle Optimeal contains 22 grams of high biological value proteins, providing all essential amino acids, including about 5 grams of Branched Chain Amino Acids (Leucine Isoleucine and Valine). BCAAs-depleted during intense exercise - are important for enhanced muscle development, muscle repair and gluconeogenesis (synthesis of glucose). Included among the essential amino acids (i.e., amino acids not manufactured in the body), BCAAs must be provided in the diet. For a better anabolic effect, Muscle Optimeal includes both fast-digesting and slow digesting proteins, offering a delayed release of amino acids for sustained muscle protein synthesis.
Each serving of Muscle Optimeal contains 6 grams of fiber per serving, yielding 4 grams soluble fiber (promotes cholesterol metabolism and cardiovascular health) and 2 grams insoluble fiber (positively affects elimination as a bulking agent and by promoting increased peristalsis [wave-like motion of intestines]).
Suggested Use
Take 1 serving within 30 minutes following completion of exercise (best absorption of nutrients occurs after exercise). Alternatively, 1 serving of Muscle Optimeal may be used in place of a meal during the day.
Mix 2 scoops (42 g) of powder with 6 to 8 oz water, milk, soy milk or your favorite beverage, or you may:
- Blend powder with liquid, ice and fruits for smoothies.
- Mix into cold or cooked cereals.
- Add to baked items (bread, muffins, etc.) or frozen desserts and yogurt.
