Maximize the performance benefits of your protein supplement. Ideal for body builders, runners, fitness enthusiasts, or anyone with an active lifestyle1, Aminolase™ represents a breakthrough in protein nutrition for those using protein supplements or meal replacements to help build or maintain healthy muscle mass and accelerate muscle recovery. (Figure 1) Aminolase™ should be taken with protein rich foods and all protein supplements including the following: whey, milk, casein, soy, pea, rice and hemp. Protein supplements are one of the richest sources of all nine essential amino acids that the body is unable to produce on its own; however all protein must first be processed into a usable form, which includes essential amino acids and beneficial peptides (i.e., Di and Tri-peptides)3. To be effective, protein must be broken down into a smaller particle size within approximately 90 minutes of consumption4. This transit time represents the time from which protein passes from the stomach through the small intestine where digestion/absorption primarily occurs; from there it will be assembled into muscle building protein (a bio-usable form)4. Undigested protein will simply be excreted from the body, resulting in increased kidney stress and wasted amino acids, essentially pouring your expensive protein supplement down the toilet. (Figure 2) Aminolase Suggested Use Suggested Use: Consume 1 capsule of Aminolase™ per 25 grams of protein consumed. Aminolase capsules may also be opened and added directly to your favorite protein supplement. Aminolase is a vegetarian enzyme product which may increase protein bio-availability as much as 1000%. Decreased Stomach Discomfort - An Added Benefit When dietary protein is not broken down into its smallest components, large peptides are created that can cause stomach discomfort such as bloating, nausea and cramping. These symptoms should not be confused with food intolerances; generally, the underlying cause of protein-induced stomach discomfort is peptide sensitivity. Aminolase breaks down these large peptides, reducing the potential for discomfort that often comes from consuming protein supplements or dietary protein. (Figures 3 & 4) C-Reactive Protein (CRP) This study also measured levels of a common marker of inflammation; a protein called C-reactive protein. Elevated levels of this protein in the blood predict the onset of serious illnesses such as cardiovascular disease. Levels of C-reactive protein were measured when the participants consumed only the whey protein drink and again, five days later, when they consumed the whey protein drink with Aminolase™. An increase in C-reactive protein levels was observed for each of the participants when they consumed only the whey protein drink. On the other hand, after consuming the whey protein drink with Aminolase™, a significant decrease in C-reactive protein levels was observed for each individual. These results indicate the ability of Aminolase™ to hydrolyze large amounts of protein, improve the absorption of individual amino acids and significantly reduce inflammation that is associated with undigested proteins. Supplement Facts Acid Stable Protease A patent pending proteolytic enzyme that is capable of digesting every type of consumable protein; protease is responsible for digesting all ingested proteins and is one of the three enzymes found in our body’s natural pancreatic juices. Hundreds of prototypes were developed before the final product was chosen. Aminolase will completely break-down and digest all protein, food or supplement. Amionlase works great with animal and vegetarian dierived proteins. This proprietary blend of proteases is active over a very brough ph range, making it extremely effective in Acid and Alkalain environments.
