High protein-plus muscle growth and recovery factors 1000 mg of L-Glutamine 1000 mg Glucosamine Sulfate.
What the Research Shows:
Power Protein Plus is a scientifically developed performance nutriceutical that goes well beyond conventional protein supplements. It was developed based on research relating to protein intake for improving nitrogen balance, healing and growth rate. The research clearly shows that whey protein, along with, Glucosamine, L-Glutamine, and select cofactors are important nutritive factors to best achieve these results. Power Protein Plus represents a totally revolutionary development in augmented protein supplementation; specifically targeting the special needs of athletes for improved nitrogen balance, muscle growth and recovery.
100% Pure Whey Protein Concentrate has been shown to increase nitrogen balance and provide a better source of protein than other sources. It is also extremely high in BCAAs and essential and nonessential amino acids. Furthermore, our whey protein concentrate is so good, it has the highest protein efficiency ratio (per). Glucosamine. A naturally occurring amino sugar found in glycoproteins and glycoaminoglycans, clinically proven to be an important nutrient factor for the repair and growth of connective tissue and skin. L-Glutamine. Absolutely essential for cell growth, L-Glutamine has been shown to be an important anticatabolic nutrient for musculoskeletal healing. Many studies have shown that L-Glutamine improves nitrogen balance in addition to intake of protein; which means it increases protein retention. Cofactors. Topping off Power Protein's formula are cofactors such as Vitamin B-6, Potassium, Phosphorus, and Calcium, that are important for the metabolism of amino acids and protein. The antioxidant Beta Carotene is also added to help maintain freshness and provide a powerful antioxidant to your body with its Vitamin A activity. Finally, the Complex Carbohydrate/Fructose component supplies the body with a source of energy that spares the use of proteins and supplies a carbohydrate source of energy important for blood sugar maintenance.
ESTIMATE PROCEDURE FOR DETERMINING APPROXIMATE DAILY PROTEIN REQUIREMENTS
Formula: Lean Bodyweight (in pounds) x Requirement Factor = Daily Protein Requirement (in grams)
Requirement Factors:
.5 - Sedentary, no sports or training
.6 - Jogger or light fitness training
.7 - Sports participation or moderate training 3X week
.8 - Moderate daily weight training or aerobic training
.9 - Heavy weight training daily
1.0 - Heavy weight training daily plus sports training,or "two-a day" training

*LBW - Remember that your fat cells require insignificant protein. So, it doesn't make any sense to compute your protein requirements from total bodyweight. Your LBW (Lean Body Weight, or fat-free weight) can be estimated using any one of several anthropometric, ultrasound, electrical impedance or underwater weighing techniques.
