Edible Science Super Athlete

Athletes are fine instruments that rely on near perfect and constant tuning. To that end our Super Athlete Formula addresses the main issues facing the athlete with products that generate the bodies own energy rather than stimulate false energy.

Many sports enhancement products use ingredients that deplete the bodies ability to generate energy so that over time a dependence on outside sources for power develops. Using renowned and ancient herbal extracts and sophisticated neutraceutical agents Edible Science Super Athlete develops muscular strength, increases endurance, speeds recovery, and provides unparalleled immune system support.

This is the formula to take before your training sessions and competitive events. An integrated system of nutrition for the athlete that approaches their training with their body and their mind.

Our Super Athlete Formula is a dynamic product: it will constantly be upgraded and improved based on the latest research and information.

Product Features:

1: EnergeX: our neural accelerator.

Improve Your Mental Performance with  the Worlds First Neural Accelerator.

EnergeX is a lab-tested performance product scientifically engineered to quickly increase the speed of neural transmission and information processing (perceptual focus, memory storage, and recall), with a prolonged efffect 2-6 hours following each dosage.

Guaranteed results within 60 minutes of the first Dose

EnergeX is used by world-champion professional athletes and preparing 2008 Olympic athletes for its dramatic effects on reaction speed and muscular contraction. 

Benefits:

• Improve Athletic Performance and Strength
• Improve Muscle Recovery after exercise
• Provide Vitality and Anti-aging properties
  
• Increase Focus and Mental Processing Speed
• Accelerate Creativity
  

2: Acetyl L-Carnitine

* Helps reduce recovery time *

Functions:

• Plays an important role in energy production
• Helps in weight loss and fat burning
• Reduces post-workout soreness
• Improves overall endurance
• ImprovesVo2 max
• Enhances cellular energy to the brain
• Used to support all bodily  functions that have a high energy demand
  

3: Coenzyme Q10

Note: Edible Science's patented CoQ10 is the newer Ubiquinol form of CoQ10 versus the older Ubiquinine form. This latest version of CoQ10 is twice as stable and 6-8 times as absorbable as standard CoQ10.

Functions:

• Muscular exhaustion reached at higher workloads
• Improvement in heart rate recovery after intervals
• Reduced post-workout soreness
• Improved overall endurance
• Improved Vo2 max
• Powerful antioxidant

Co Q10 is found in almost every cell of the human body. Dietary sources of CoQ10 are found in meats and some protein-rich nuts, but the concentrations are weak at best. It would take 15lbs of peanut butter - or an equally improbable three-and-a-half pounds of sardines - to provide just 100 mg of Q10. This is the amount the University of Washington School of Medicine Physicians' Update calls "a reasonable daily supplement." To get optimal amounts of Q10, the enzyme is taken orally.

Coenzyme Q10 is an essential co-factor in the production of ATP, the basic fuel that the body utilizes. Without Q10, we can't manufacture ATP. Our bodies store enough ATP for about 6-8 minutes of vigorous physical activity. During light exercise or at rest we have the ability to produce enough ATP. Endurance athletes perform high-intensity training over a long period of time are the exception to this rule. Endurance athletes levels of Co Q10 may become chronically low. Supplementation may be the answer. Endurance training and competition exercise is not the only thing that lowers Q10 levels. Age is also a factor in the reduction of this critical nutrient. After age 20, Co Q10 declines gradually. After 50, it plummets.

Beyond endurance

Besides Co Q10's ability to produce ATP, it is a POWERFUL anti-oxidant. Free radicals (oxidized toxic byproducts of cellular activity and repair) are constantly created by endurance training and racing. Free radicals damage cells unless neutralized by anti-oxidants. Co Q10 has the ability to dramatically lessen the oxidative stress of free radicals. Fewer free radicals means better recovery, health and immunity.

4: High EGCG Green Tea

As high profile athletes continue to make headlines for their use of steroids and other performance boosters, nutritionists are finding that better endurance might come from a surprising source: green tea. A new study has found that athletes who drank four cups of green tea each day for 10 weeks saw endurance improve by up to 24 percent at the end of the trial. The researchers caution that their findings are preliminary and more study on the issue is certainly worthwhile If you find this article interesting, be sure to also read 'Green tea shown to be a powerful defender against cardiovascular disease.'

Now that even baseball players may need to seek new, more natural performance aids, will Japanese green tea sets become standard in dugouts and athletic training tables around the world?

A new study tested the effect of regularly taking green tea extract (GTE) and found that over 10 weeks, endurance exercise performance was boosted up to 24% with 0.5% GTE supplementation, and 8% with 0.2% by-weight addition to food. * Reporting in the online edition of the American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology researchers at the Biological Sciences Laboratories of Kao Corp., Tochigi, Japan, said the 8-24% increase in swimming time-to-exhaustion was "accompanied by lower respiratory quotients and higher rates of fat oxidation." * The results "indicate that GTE is beneficial for improving endurance capacity and support the hypothesis that the stimulation of fatty acid utilization is a promising strategy for improving endurance capacity," according to the study entitled, "Green tea extract improves endurance capacity and increases muscle lipid oxidation in mice." * The Kao lab "recently demonstrated that the long-term consumption of tea catechins was beneficial in counteracting the obesity-inducing effects of a high-fat diet, and that their effects may be attributed, at least in part, to the activation of hepatic lipid catabolism" in mice. * "Overall," the authors said, "observations so far suggest that thermogenesis and fat oxidation are stimulated by the intake of catechins." * "To confirm our hypothesis that catechins affect endurance exercise capacity (i.e. time to exhaustion) by increasing lipid utilization, in this study we examined the effect of catechin-rich GTE intake on the endurance capacity of Balb/c mice swimming in an adjustable-current water pool. * The study found that plasma NEFA (non-esterified fatty acid) measured immediately after exercise slightly, but significantly, increased in mice fed tea catechins.
