Are you suffering from "Anabolic Fatigue"?

GLUTAMINE SELECT™ from Beverly International (BI) is intended to support improvements in the appearance and performance of your physique by tackling a little known but pervasive condition known as "anabolic fatigue".*

The Condition: "Anabolic Fatigue"
Protein synthesis is the essential element of building muscle. The synthesis of glycogen, though less important, is hardly non-essential, particularly for athletes. For instance, scientists have determined that when your muscle cells are depleted of glycogen, protein synthesis slows down and muscle atrophy (shrinkage) becomes much more likely. Just think of how flat and out of shape your muscles look (and how sluggish they feel) when they are low in glycogen, such as occurs when you eat too little carbohydrate. The amount of glycogen inside your muscles can even affect your vascularity.

Anabolism is very energy-intensive, like climbing up a steep hill. Approximately 1 out of every 5 calories burned by your body is used to drive protein synthesis, for instance, yet bodybuilding athletes demand this and other anabolic processes from their muscles 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. This may result in a condition known as "anabolic fatigue" that lasts days, weeks, months or years. Anabolic fatigue can impair your ability to recover from your workouts and experience the gains in lean muscle mass and strength that you expect.

As an energy precursor, BI's product development scientists suspected that glutamine might help provide support against anabolic fatigue in muscle cells, thereby enabling protein synthesis, glycogen synthesis and other anabolic process to proceed.* However, glutamine can't alleviate anabolic fatigue all by itself, the scientists observed. Its role as an energy precursor is affected by the availability of other amino acids, some more than others. Thus, they predicted that supplementing the diet with glutamine by itself wouldn't be the best plan of attack for a bodybuilding athlete to undertake. Doing so would only serve to cap what they referred to as its "anabolic energy". It was at this point that they began searching for other amino acids to partner with glutamine in an effort to uncap this potential.

The Solution: "Anabolic Energy"
GLUTAMINE SELECT™ is a powdered drink mix consisting of the amino acids glutamine, leucine, isoleucine and valine. The latter three comprise the branched-chain amino acids (BCAA). The development of GLUTAMINE SELECT™ rests on solid scientific grounds. By partnering glutamine with BCAA in quantities clinically-suggested to be effective in bodybuilding athletes, its anabolic energy can finally be uncapped.* This uniquely energizing effect is something you can only fully appreciate by trying GLUTAMINE SELECT™ for yourself. Once you do, you will see why it is referred to as the "red bull" of bodybuilding amino acid formulas. Each ingredient in GLUTAMINE SELECT™ has been tested and reviewed for safety and purity.* Finally, BI's product development scientists left no stone unturned in making GLUTAMINE SELECT™ the very best tasting formula of its kind by using a proprietary cherry flavoring system.

GLUTAMINE SELECT™ is worlds apart from any other glutamine formula:
1. Clinically-proven quantities: Large quantities of glutamine and BCAA are required to produce the effects sought by bodybuilding athletes, such as promotions in muscle mass, hardness and overall performance, and faster recovery from training.* Whereas some glutamine supplements contain only glutamine, each serving of GLUTAMINE SELECT™ supplies 5 g of glutamine plus 3 g BCAA. These are the exact same quantities of glutamine and BCAA suggested to improve the effectiveness of whey in resistance trained athletes (Colker, 2000).* Whey is frequently regarded as the most anabolic protein in the world. Subjects in the Colker study who received the whey fortified with glutamine and BCAA gained more muscle and strength as compared to those receiving regular whey only.* These findings strongly suggest that glutamine and BCAA increased the anabolic energy of whey.*
2. Pharmacologically-active form: The glutamine and BCAA in GLUTAMINE SELECT™ are free, i.e., not bound to proteins. In this form they can promote different actions from those possible through the consumption of food.* Though glutamine is abundant in many protein supplements, typically it is protein-bound glutamine, which may not raise plasma glutamine levels as quickly as can free glutamine.* A study published in the International Journal of Sports Medicine (van Hall et al. 2000) found that a drink containing free glutamine raised plasma glutamine levels in trained subjects, whereas plasma glutamine levels were not affected by the consumption of either a wheat protein hydrolysate (providing 26% glutamine) or a whey protein hydrolysate (providing 6.6% glutamine).* Wheat protein hydrolysate is sometimes added to protein powders and other supplements to increase their glutamine content.
3. Refreshingly delicious taste: BI's scientists used a proprietary cherry flavor system to make GLUTAMINE SELECT™ taste as delicious as it is anabolically energizing.
4. Tested and reviewed for safety and purity: Like the rest of BI's formulas, all of the ingredients in GLUTAMINE SELECT™ have been tested and reviewed for safety and purity. The glutamine and BCAA, in particular, meet United States Pharmacopeia (USP) standards.
5. Less than $1 per serving: GLUTAMINE SELECT™ costs less than $1 per serving. Compare this to the potential gains in muscle protein, glycogen, mass, strength and hardness.* They are priceless.
6. Anabolic energy that never "crashes": GLUTAMINE SELECT™ that may help support lasting increases in anabolic energy levels.*

Uncap Glutamine's Anabolic Energy. Unleash your Bodybuilding Potential.
Glutamine is an incredibly versatile amino acid. However, its role as an energy precursor, and, thereby, a source of anabolic energy, is typically overlooked.* Yet it is this fascinating role which renders it especially qualified to alleviate anabolic fatigue, a condition that may explain the disappointing results experienced by bodybuilding athletes of all kinds and calibers.*
However, glutamine cannot alleviate anabolic fatigue all by itself. The availability of BCAA, in particular, limits glutamine's powers as an energy precursor and driver of anabolism. Research dating back to at least the 1970s suggests that glutamine and BCAA are closely connected.* Some of the benefits of BCAA supplementation can be explained by their effects on glutamine and energy metabolism; conversely, some of the benefits of glutamine supplementation can be explained by its effects on BCAA and energy metabolism.*
