UM PEAK PERFORMANCE - WHEY PROTEIN - 16OZ
UM’s Peak Performance Whey is a potent protein supplement for men looking to build muscle, recover faster, and enhance overall health. Peak Performance Whey is specifically formulated with components that support muscle building, recovery, and overall health in men when used correctly and as part of a balanced lifestyle. This Whey product is way good … made with the way good stuff while avoiding the way bad stuff.
Peak Performance Whey is formulated with a precise amino acid profile that leads to optimal protein synthesis in your body. This formula is modern day revolution in the world of whey! UM’s Peak Performance Whey has three times the bioavailability of basic whey in just one serving (4 Tablespoons). That means you are getting over 40g of bio-equivalent protein per serving! We recommend that you combine UM Peak Performance Whey with UM WOD Recovery EAAs for maximum impact.
UM’s Peak Performance Whey is different than most other whey proteins in that it is cross-flow micro-filtered (CFM). This means it is the most un-denatured form of whey available on the market. Its health-boosting native protein structures remain intact due to the gentle, cold-processed isolation method. Undesired particles, such as lactose, cholesterol, and even any de-natured fractions, are successfully removed. This means even those with dairy sensitivities can often enjoy our whey protein. Peak Performance Whey is potent and ultra-pure with the highest biological value of all proteins. It retains high percentages of immunoglobulin and minerals and is higher in calcium than other whey protein supplements.
You can add a serving to 8-12 ounces of milk or some other liquid such as water or another nut milk or oat milk (if animal milk is an issue) … base the amount of liquid on how sweet you like your drink. If milk is an option for you, we recommend whole milk as the nutritional benefits of the extra cream are significant. However, if you are trying to keep your calorie count lower … the product tastes just fine in lower fat milk and alternative milk products.
Whey Protein Isolate:
- Muscle Building Power: Peak Performance Whey is a high-quality, complete protein rich in essential amino acids, crucial for muscle protein synthesis, growth, and repair.
- Fast Absorption: Isolates are rapidly absorbed, making them ideal for post-workout consumption to quickly start the muscle repair process.
- Lean Muscle Building: Peak Performance Whey is low in fat and carbohydrates, helping support the development of lean muscle mass.
Notable Additions:
- Glycine: Supports protein synthesis, beneficial for connective tissue repair and joint health, which is vital for those engaging in regular exercise. Glycine is also known to improve sleep quality and cognitive function, both of which are important for recovery and overall well-being.
- Leucine: A critical branched-chain amino acid (BCAA) that significantly stimulates muscle protein synthesis, leading to muscle growth and repair.
- L-Glutamine: Helps replenish glutamine stores depleted during intense workouts, aiding in muscle repair and recovery. L-Glutamine also supports the immune system, which is crucial for overall health and maintaining a consistent training regimen.
- Taurine: Helps regulate cellular hydration and electrolyte balance in muscle cells, potentially improving muscle function and endurance. Additionally, Taurine may reduce exercise-induced oxidative stress, aiding recovery and reducing muscle soreness.
- Sunflower Lecithin: Improves the mixability and absorption of the supplement, ensuring that the body can efficiently utilize all ingredients. It also contains phosphatidylcholine, beneficial for brain and nervous system health.
- Citric Acid: Plays a role in the Krebs cycle, a key energy-producing process in the body, which can help improve metabolic function and energy levels.
- Himalayan Pink Salt: Provides minerals and trace elements, including potassium, magnesium, and calcium, which are vital for maintaining proper hydration, muscle function, and overall electrolyte balance. It is also believed to support the body’s detoxification processes.
Combined Benefits for Muscle Building and Recovery:
- Enhanced Protein Synthesis: Ingredients like whey protein isolate and leucine provide the necessary building blocks for muscle growth and repair.
- Optimized Recovery: Amino acids like L-glutamine and taurine, along with the electrolyte balance provided by Himalayan pink salt, help in quicker recovery by reducing inflammation and replenishing muscle energy stores.
- Overall Health Support: A combination of these ingredients supports various aspects of health, including immune function, metabolic processes, and neurological health, which are foundational for effective muscle building and recovery.
Usage and Considerations:
- Balanced Diet: Supplements are most effective when used in conjunction with a balanced diet that provides all necessary nutrients. If you chose one of the naturally sweetened products, consider that while these sweeteners offer a healthier alternative to sugar, they should also be consumed as part of a balanced diet focusing on whole foods and various nutrients.
- Regular Exercise: For best results, this supplement should be paired with a consistent exercise routine tailored to muscle building and maintaining overall physical health.
- Natural Sweetener Individual Tolerance: Some people may have sensitivities to non-nutritive sweeteners, leading to digestive issues. It’s crucial to monitor your body’s response and adjust accordingly.
