Glutacell is a new and innovative muscle growth and strength enhancing formulation, bio-engineered for extreme muscular development and recovery. Its comprehensive amino-acid formula offers a potent combination of muscle building aminos, increases the uptake of creatine and other nutrients, and drastically reduces recovery time between workouts.
The rapid provision and replacement of essential muscle building amino acids is vital before after intensive training. Glutacell provides a blend of these amino acids and other nutrients designed to improve overall muscle function. Peptide bonded Glutamine, d-Pinitol, L-citrulline, L-alanine, L-glutamine, L-taurine, L-glycine, folic acid, zinc gluconate and niacin is provided in an extreme ratio, ensuring abundant supply for muscle growth.
Glutamine itself has become increasingly prominent as new studies reveal its unique contribution to protein synthesis, muscle growth, anti-catabolic (preventing muscle tissue breakdown) and growth hormone elevating effects.
Glutamine is the most abundant single amino acid in the blood and in the intracellular free amino acid pool (most abundant amino acid in muscle tissue). It comprises 61% of the amino acid pool in skeletal muscle cell. In fact, Glutamine alone is responsible for 35% of the nitrogen that penetrates muscle cells. Glutamine literally drives muscle-building nitrogen into the muscle cell where it is synthesised for growth.
Glutamine concentrations fall remarkably after training within as little as 30 minutes, and remain low until complete recovery, up to as long as 5 - 7 days, resulting in decreases in strength, stamina and recovery. It is therefore critical for maintaining and building muscle tissue. The higher the muscle glutamine levels you can maintain, the less chance you have of falling into catabolism and the faster muscle will recover and grow.
Another key ingredient in Gluta-Cell is d-Pinitol, a naturally-occurring compound found in certain plants, trees and foods, such as soy. Studies show that it has insulin-like effects, thereby driving creatine and other nutrients into muscle cells. This is thought to accelerate muscle growth and improve recovery by forcing more nutrients into the muscles.
As demonstrated in a series of well-controlled studies in New York, it promotes glucose transport and glycogen synthesis, making it a very attractive supplement for the serious athlete or anyone looking for increased energy and endurance. D-pinitol is very popular with people who want to use creatine, but don't want the extra calories and sugar contained in many creatine-based supplements. In a trial study, researchers examined whether co-ingestion of D-pinitol with creatine affects whole body creatine retention. The results show that D-Pinitol increases whole body creatine retention to the same extent as high levels of carbohydrate or carbohydrate and protein.
The effects of Pinitol have been described by noted experts, one pointing out that "... of all the proposed so-called insulin mimickers and insulin co-factors, pinitol is the one with the most promise."
D-pinitol will increase creatine uptake to the same extent as large doses of carbohydrate, but without the extra calories and sugar. This will lead to faster muscle growth, greater strength and an increase in power output.
