Probiotics 4 Muscle

Probiotics – The Missing Link Between Equilibrium and Growth

Trends in sports nutrition have evolved toward utilizing multi-purpose formulas or products. Adding probiotics to a protein powder would offer bodybuilders, athletes and health enthusiast immune protection plus a multitude of applications that enhance pre- and post workout efforts. Additionally, new data indicates that specific strains of probiotics increase the utilization of protein by the body, particularity the amino acid leucine, as well as regulate the anabolic synergy between nutrients and the integrality of the anabolic milieu.  ~ Ganeden Biotech Laboratory

In today’s body building arena it is a universally accepted practice to utilize and or incorporate several different products to address assorted metabolic and growth enhancing needs. This practice is designed to generate the synergistic energy needed to illicit an anabolic response which otherwise wouldn’t occur by using a single product. However, protein will always be a core product as it is the material the body uses to string together the various combinations of amino acids that build muscle. While there exist a variety of products like creatine  and nitric oxide potentiators that also dominate the marketplace, emerging data indicates that a non-traditional sports nutritional product has the possibility to become synonymous with the phrase maintains the equilibrium of the body’s anabolic milieu.

Your Internal Milieu: Your Anabolic Battle ground
Milieu is defined as the surroundings or environment that something lives in and is influenced by. From all indications probiotics are that something that improves the biochemical processes that govern protein
synthesis which is the creation of specific cellular proteins that ignite muscle development and growth. Emerging data clearly shows that these probiotic microorganisms govern many other physiological mechanisms that regulate the body’s anabolic, metabolic and bio-energetic potential. In retrospect, probiotics could be compared to a battalion of highly trained navy seals dropped into a dangerous war zone to restore and maintain order within the anabolic milieu where these synergistic processes take place.

A Healthy Gut: Your Milieu’s Secret Weapon
Probiotics are defined by the World Health Organization as living microorganisms (good bacteria), which when administered in adequate amounts, confer a health benefit to the host, meaning you. Probiotics generate many good bacteria like, bifidum, bifida bacterium, lactobacillus acidophilus, lactobacillus bulgarius and saccharmyces that train the immune system to work more efficiently, while helping cells there to grow and develop. This equates to better support against respiratory problems individuals engaged in intense workouts sometimes encounter, as a result of exercise induced stress which accelerates the destruction of good bacteria. Probiotics help neutralize oxidation by inflammatory chemicals that can accumulate in the gastrointestinal tract by producing organic (living) compounds like lactic acid, hydrogen peroxide, and acetic acid that increase the acidity of the intestines and inhibits the reproduction of harmful bacteria. Probiotic bacteria also produce substances called acidophillin or bacteriocins which act as natural antibiotics that kill undesirable
microorganisms.

A One 100 Trillion Difference
Researchers now know that over 80% of the immune system resides in the gut and serves as the cornerstone of immune health, although the intestinal tract comprises millions of stains of harmful bacteria. In fact, gut bacteria out number the cells found in the body which equal about 10 trillion by a 10 to 1 ratio, meaning that some 100 trillion different bacteria live in the gut.
