| Q. How is Amino Vital® different from other sports drinks? |
| Amino
Vital® is the first sports supplement scientifically proven to offer
all the fitness and performance benefits of amino acids. Combining
ideal hydration (thanks to osmotic properties that ensure fast
absorption) with a rich supply of BCAAs (the branched-chain amino acids
leucine, isoleucine and valine) and other amino nutrients, Amino Vital®
provides direct muscle energy, helps delay central fatigue and
encourages faster recovery and repair of muscle tissue. |
| Q. What are amino acids? What are they derived from? |
| The
building blocks of protein, amino acids are an essential component of
life on Planet Earth. The amino acids in Amino Vital® are derived from
corn, starches and other natural substances via an advanced
fermentation process. All the amino acids used in Amino Vital® products
are of the purest, highest, pharmaceutical-grade quality, produced by
Ajinomoto, the world leader in amino science. |
| Q. What amino acids are included in Amino Vital®? |
The branched-chain amino acids (leucine, isoleucine and valine) as well as arginine and glutamine*.
|
| Q. If amino acids are the building blocks of protein, why can't I just get them from the foods I eat? |
| You
can ? except that a significant portion of the amino acids obtained
from food proteins is lost in the process of digestion. Since the amino
acids contained in Amino Vital® don't have to be digested, your body
obtains 70 to 80% more amino acids than you would from food-derived
protein. Amino Vital® not only delivers this amino nutrition
immediately during a workout, when you need it most, it also provides
amino acids without the fat and excess carbs most protein-rich foods
contain. |
| Q. Are amino acids or any of the other ingredients of Amino Vital® banned substances? |
| No,
neither Amino Vital® nor amino acids are NCAA-banned substances. Amino
Vital® is the only official supplement partner of the Japan Olympic
Committee and has been approved by the Japan Anti-Doping Agency, which
adheres to the World Anti-Doping Code. In addition, Amino Vital® is the
Official Amino Acid Sports Supplement Drink of USA Triathlon and of
professional sports teams like the Seattle Mariners and New York
Yankees. |
| Q. What is the difference between amino acids, creatine and protein products? |
| Amino
acids are the building blocks of protein and the "construction
material" of virtually all your body's lean mass. Creatine, is a
nitrogenous organic acid, manufactured by the body to assist in muscle
contractions. (Amino Vital® does not contain creatine.) Protein
products, including powders and drinks, are designed to deliver large
amounts of protein to help athletes "bulk up." In contrast to protein
products, which have to be digested and broken down before entering the
blood stream, Amino Vital® requires no digestion, so the amino acids
contained in Amino Vital® enter the blood stream ? and reach muscles
?much faster and with much less waste than with protein products. In
addition, Amino Vital® packs only a fraction of the calories contained
in typical protein products. |
| Q. Will I experience a burst of energy from drinking Amino Vital®? If so, why? |
| Beginning
about thirty minutes after consuming Amino Vital®, you will experience
a sense of increased energy. This is because the branched-chain amino
acids (leucine, isoleucine and valine) contained in Amino Vital®, which
are an important source of muscle energy, begin reaching muscle tissue
at this time, after having traveled through your stomach, intestines
and bloodstream. Once supplied with this additional source of energy,
your muscles "communicate" a sense of readiness that most athletes
experience as "energizing." |
| Q. Will Amino Vital® help me maintain focus during exercise? If so, how? And why is this important? |
| Many
athletes experience an increased sense of focus from taking Amino
Vital®. In brief, this is a benefit of BCAAs blocking excess production
of the potent brain neurotransmitter serotonin (which can make you feel
drowsy and unfocused) during long workouts. In more detail, scientists
have found that a decrease in BCAA levels correlates with an increase
in serotonin secretion, which in turn results in "central fatigue,"
which is in essence your brain's way of telling you to slow down and
take it easy. Adequate supplies of BCAAs have been found to delay the
onset of central fatigue, so you stay energized and focused longer.
Further, central fatigue has been shown to heighten the risk of injury,
so discouraging its onset ? as happens with Amino Vital® ? is a good
way to take care of your body. |
| Q. Will Amino Vital R help decrease soreness and stiffness after hard workouts? Why? |
| Yes.
Consuming Amino Vital® before, during and after workouts will help you
feel less stiff and sore ? and more quickly "recovered" in the hours
and days that follow. This is in part the result of the amino acid,
arginine, in Amino Vital®, which removes the toxins that accumulate
during muscle exertion, and in part thanks to your muscles having a
plentiful supply of branched-chain amino acids available to begin
repairing and restoring your muscles immediately. For this last reason,
it's especially important to consume Amino Vital® after your workout.
Many athletes, in fact, report superior results from consuming Amino
Vital® Fast Charge with a meal or just before bedtime. |
| Q. What are the long-term benefits of Amino Vital®? |
| Over
the long term, studies have shown that sustained consumption of Amino
Vital® as part of an exercise or sports program contributes to
improving your muscle-to-fat ratio, increasing your resistance to
injuries and even strengthening your immune system. |
| Q. Is it okay for kids to drink Amino Vital®? |
| Amino
Vital® contains only the purest, highest-quality pharmaceutical-grade
amino acids and vitamins ? purely nutritional ingredients ? so it's
safe and beneficial for people of any age. In addition, the sugar
content of Amino Vital® is considerably lower than most sports drinks
and fruit juices, which means it won't trigger sugar "highs." The taste
"performance" of Amino Vital® has been carefully researched to
encourage children and adults alike to consume more fluid and thus
encourage proper hydration. |
| Q. Is Amino Vital® safe for diabetics? |
| A
single serving of Amino Vital® Mix-and-Shake contains eight grams of
sugar. While that is a relatively small amount of sugar, diabetics need
to count it as part of their daily sugar intake. If you are a diabetic,
be sure to ask your doctor for advice on how best to make Amino Vital®
part of your regular diet or workout routine. Also mention Amino Vital®
Fast Charge, which contains only 2 grams of maltitol, and thus may be a
preferable option for diabetics. |
| Q. Can vegetarians take Amino Vital®? |
| Yes.
Amino Vital® is an ideal supplemental source of essential amino acids
for people who avoid animal sources of protein. Amino Vital® does not
contain any animal ingredients or byproducts. |
| Q. Is Amino Vital® kosher? |
| Amino Vital® Ready-to-Drink is a certified kosher product. |
| Q. Will Amino Vital® make me bulk up? |
| No.
Body-building demands strenuous exercise, such as weight training.
Amino Vital® delivers the nutrition your muscles require for energy and
focus during exercise, recovery and repair after exertion, but it won't
in itself cause massive muscle growth. |
| Q. Does Amino Vital® help with weight control? |
| Yes,
Amino Vital® is an ideal sports supplement drink for diets and
weight-control programs. Amino Vital® delivers all the benefits of
amino acids without burdening your body with excess calories, carbs or
high sodium levels. You maintain proper hydration, work out harder and
longer ? and recover faster. The result: more calories burned and, over
the long term, a better muscle-to-fat ratio. |
| Q. What if I'm recovering from an injury? Will Amino Vital® help? |
| Yes.
Even if your injury is so severe that you can't take part in normal
workouts, regular consumption of Amino Vital® will help supply the
amino nutrients your body needs to repair muscle tears and tissue
damage. And once you're back to regular workouts, Amino Vital® will
help support the reconditioning and rebuilding process necessary after
a long period of inactivity. For less serious conditions, Amino Vital®
will not only help reduce your soreness after intense muscle exertion,
it will also aid in muscle tissue repair and recovery. |
| Q. Is Amino Vital® only for serious athletes? |
| Amino
Vital® will prove highly beneficial for anyone committed to achieving
greater fitness, whatever your level of athletic prowess. Still,
serious athletes especially appreciate Amino Vital®, for good reason.
The harder you work out, the more amino acids your body consumes … and
the more you need Amino Vital®. Studies have shown that marathon
runners, for example, deplete as much as 30% of their body's store of
amino acids ? and in particular, BCAAs ? over the course of their run.
No other comprehensive sports supplement drink provides athletes with
the amino acids necessary for prime conditioning to help sustain peak
performance while ensuring fast, constant hydration. Amino Vital® is
also approved by the Japan Anti-Doping Agency, which follows the Code
set forth by the World Anti-Doping Agency providing athletes with
security that they are not violating any banned-substance laws. |
| Q. When ? and how often ? should I drink Amino Vital® products ? |
| For
best results, begin consuming Amino Vital® up to half an hour before
exercising, then finish during and after your workout. For
longer-lasting or more strenuous workouts, you may want to consume as
many as three separate servings, before, during and after exercise.
Also consider taking a packet of Amino Vital® Fast Charge with a meal
or before bedtime to encourage maximum recovery overnight while you
rest. For more information about specific Amino Vital® products, see
What is Amino Vital®? at our website. |
| Q. What's the right amount of amino acids for me? Can I get too much of a good thing? |
| Amino
acid supplements like Amino Vital® typically contain between two and
eight grams of amino acids, while the average adult requires about 70
grams of amino acid-derived protein every day. In other words, the
amount of amino acids contained in Amino Vital® is only a fraction of
what you obtain from a normal, healthy diet. So no, it's almost
impossible to get "too much of a good thing." |
| Q. Can I consume Amino Vital® with other sports supplements and drinks? |
| We
recommend that you drink Amino Vital® on its own. Amino Vital® is a
comprehensive sports performance supplement designed to supply and
replenish fluids, amino acids and other nutrients lost during exercise.
However, Amino Vital® does not contain any ingredients that would cause
an adverse reaction if mixed with other ingredients. |
