Endurox R4 Carbohydrate and Protein Sports Recovery Drink Mix
Breakthrough research conducted over the past five years has redefined how the exercising muscle optimally performs and recovers. This research has shown that 1) free radical build-up slows the recovery process; 2) insulin is key in replenishing muscle glycogen stores and rebuilding protein; 3) the ratio of carbohydrate to protein, called the Optimum Recovery Ratio (OR2™), is critical in optimizing glycogen restoration and 4) certain natural agents can significantly reduce exercise induced muscle stress.
These findings are the foundation of a new model for optimizing muscle recovery called the R4 system. In studies against the leading sports drink, Endurox R4 delivered equal hydration effectiveness and was proven to:
- Enhance performance and extend endurance by 55%†
- Decrease post-exercise muscle stress by 36%†
- Reduce free radical build-up by 69%, thereby protecting against muscle stress and soreness†
- Increase insulin levels by 70%, thereby speeding the replenishment of muscle glycogen stores and the rebuilding of protein†
