More Great News for Athletes

The Holy Grail of Athletic Performance

Talk to any Athlete that takes a protein supplement and ask them what they are really wanting and they will likely tell you Branch Chain Amino Acids. And if your are a body builder, you would likely add Creatine (found in Immunocal Platinum).

HMS 90/Immunocal is rich in BCAA’s, Branch Chain Amino Acids, they are those amino acids responsible for the development of lean muscle mass, ligaments and tendons. Immunocal has a lot of branch chain amino acids in it. In fact Immunocal contains 19/20 amino acids that your body requires to function. The 20th is readily available. You could literally survive on Immunocal (for protein content) by itself.

The recommended dosing for Immunocal would range from 2 to 4 packs per day depending on body weight, current supplementation regime, training intensity and duration etc. One of our 10gram packs of Immunocal contains 2.2 grams of BCAA’s.

Here is a summary of points to which all athletes should draw their attention to when considering taking Immunocal: There simply is NO other protein like this!!!

  • Immunocal is a very bioactive protein nutraceutical. A Cysteine delivery system that raises glutathione levels, raises T cell levels (increased immune response) and very importantly, detoxifies the liver, removing at least 12 known carcinogens and heavy metals from the liver.
  • It is rich in cysteine-cysteine and glutamine-cysteine dipeptides
  • It supplies about 1.8 grams of L-glutamine/glutamate per serving
  • It supplies almost 2.2 grams of essential BCAA’s, (Branch Chain Amino Acids), including 1gram of L-leucine, per serving (amino acids responsible for developing lean, healthy and functional muscle mass)
  • HMS-90/Immunocal contains 0 % fat and lactose
  • HMS-90 reduces muscle soreness (DOMS)(delayed onset muscle soreness) after strenuous work outs or activity

Increase Your Athletic Performance by 12%

Athletes! Check out HMS-90/Immunocal

Today more than any other time in recent athletic history elite athletes (including weight lifters, power lifters, track & field athletes, cyclists, all professional athletes) as well as amateur athletes, even the ‘weekend warrior types’ are very concerned about the existence of banned performance enhancing substances and/or any potentially harmful substances which could be in products sold for sports supplementation!

Your apprehension is well founded as most supplements don’t deliver anything and many can be dangerous!

The Real Facts
: Immunotec’s Immunocal/HMS-90 (Cysteine protein delivery system) and our very effective energy tonic, XtraSharp, have been tested in many elite athletes, with negative results every time (no banned substances). We provide complete disclosure as to what is in both these products, so any athlete at any level can be sure of what they are taking.

HMS-90/Immunocal is a Cysteine protein delivery system. The combination of a novel formulation and unique production process has resulted in an end product with a high level of bioactivity which gives the product its immuno-sustaining property.

Supplementation with HMS-90/Immunocal will affect the athlete in three critical areas: immunity, recovery, and performance. This involves furnishing the athlete with high quantities of the disulfide form of cysteine: Commercially produced whey proteins do not have these disulfide bonds, are pasteurized and have a lot of fillers added to them. They also contain fat and lactose. Commercially sold whey protein “does not have” the immunity and recovery aspect that HMS-90 has nor do they have as much punch in the area of performance.


Athletes, no other supplement gives you help in all these 3 areas


Immune function
- the biological importance of cystine is associated with its intracellular transport that results in optimal (GSH) synthesis. The athlete gains from a strong immune response, critical in protecting them from colds, flu and other serious disease states. So this GSH (glutathione) will help you stay away from illnesses that can ruin performance in any sport.


Recovery
- Increased glutathione stores in the muscle cell will help mediate muscle damage induced by oxidative stress such as muscle soreness and sarcolemma permeability which have been linked to oxidative stress. Athletes who train very intensely often refer to DOMS, phenomena known as delayed onset of muscle soreness. Many athletes on HMS-90/Immunocal report a major reduction in DOMS.

Performance - The effect of HMS 90/Immunocal on muscular performance was delineated by Dr. Lands at the Montreal Children’s Hospital in Montreal. Briefly, twenty healthy young adults (10 men, 10 women) were studied pre-supplementation and 3 months post-supplementation with either Immunocal/HMS 90 (20 g/day) or casein placebo. As Dr. Lands indicated, this was the first study to demonstrate that prolonged supplementation with a product designed to augment antioxidant defenses resulted in improved volitional performance. In this study we witnessed increased leg muscle performance by 13-15%.

Supplementation with this product by athletes will not breach current national and/or international drug standards. This product is derived from whey protein with no additives and/or preservatives.
