We wanted to give you a little education on these products, but not overwhelm you with science. Please note-there is a difference between pain related to injury and pain related to soreness/stiffness. If you feel you have an injury, please reach out your medical provider! During and after athletic activity, the body has numerous responses to help it recover and adapt. Many of these responses involve some level of local inflammation and muscle soreness that peaks within 24 to 48 hours after the exercise, usually referred to collectively as delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS). These processes may contribute to various functional deficits such as reduced strength and/or range of motion ( Davis 2007 ). The ingredients selected for this package help improve stiffness and aid in recovery. You can also buy individual products if you do not want buy the whole protocol. Branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) provide extra quantities of specific amino acids (proteins used by muscle) that help to reduce markers of exercise-related damage ( Khemtong 2021 ). Creatine helps to provide additional short-duration energy reserves and muscle hydration. ( Kreider 2017 ) This increases perfomance and gives your muscles the energy and help they need. Finally, whey protein helps with satiety, ensures adequate protein intake, and helps preserve lean muscle mass under energy restriction ( Wirunsawanya 2018 ).

Curcumin phytosome reduces many inflammatory markers and may shorten recovery time from exercise ( Fang 2020 )( Suhett 2021 ). Magnesium reduces inflammation and cortisol (stress hormone) levels as well as improve immune system function which are all elevated after exercise. Omega-3 fatty acids have effects on down-regulating cyclooxyrgenase-2 expression and the metabolism of arachidonic acid which are involved in the inflammatory process ( Ochi 2018 ).
