Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® was designed for professional athletes and active people looking for quick and efficient post-exercise recovery. To ensure fast regeneration after intensive workout, competition or games all nutrients losses must be replenished as fast as possible. It means that liver and muscle glycogen stores must be replenished as well as increased demand for protein caused by intensive physical effort.1,2,3 must be provided. Moreover, addition of protein to carbohydrates increases glycogen resynthesis rate4,5,6 and positively influences nitrogen balance7,8. Positive nitrogen balance is necessary to inhibit catabolic (breakdown) processes and augment post-workout muscle protein synthesis rate. It leads to fast regeneration of muscle micro-damages and optimal body adaptation through the increase of mitochondrial and contractile protein synthesis rates. The best solution is to deliver in one product the source of easily ingested carbohydrates along with proper amount of protein, to ensure fast post workout regeneration. Until now, there was no product available on the market that would provide concentrated form of all necessary nutrients.
Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo®, is the first product on the market to deliver optimal dose of carbohydrates and protein ensuring fast and efficient recovery. Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® contains high molecular mass carbohydrates and maltodextrines that provide fast and long-lasting replenishment of muscle and liver glycogen stores. The addition of the highest quality collagen protein hydrolysate ensures positive nitrogen balance that is necessary for the quick regeneration of muscle protein and optimal body adaptation to the physical activity.
Quick and effective post-exercise regeneration depends on timing, amount and quality of nutrients provided with post-workout meal. Immediately after the workout, enzymes responsible for replenishment of glycogen stores and muscle tissue regeneration are most active.8,9. It means that the fastest and most effective regeneration can be achieved by delivering the proper amount of carbohydrates and protein as soon after the workout as possible. To ensure optimal regeneration and adaptation it is recommended to provide 0,5 – 1 gram of carbohydrates and 0,2 – 0,3 gram of protein per kilogram of bodyweight 30 to 60 minutes after the workout followed by further regular consumption in the next few hours.8,10 Common inhibitor of proper regeneration is a problem with consuming sufficient amount of food right after the intensive physical effort. Intensive workout or exhausting competition can suppress (lower) the appetite and decrease blood circulation in the gastrointestinal tract, therefore the ability to consume food. The best solution is to eat low volume products that provide optimal amount of easily assimilated carbohydrates and protein that will not overfill the stomach but provide all the nutrients necessary for post-workout recovery.
Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® is a source of concentrated easily absorbable carbohydrates along with high quality whey and collagen protein hydrolysates that support glycogen replenishment and muscle protein synthesis. The addition of key electrolytes and vitamins increases the post workout regeneration remarkably. Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® is the only supplement of that complexity available in the form of gel.
Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® contains two kinds of easily assimilated carbohydrates ensuring fast liver and muscles glycogen resynthesis. High molecular mass carbohydrates from Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® replenish muscle glycogen very fast, especially immediately after finishing the workout, 11. The addition of maltodextrines that have a bit lower gastric emptying rate provides a steady release of glucose into bloodstream which guarantees continuous glycogen resynthesis between following carbohydrate meals.
Due to its concentrated formula, Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® allows for frequent delivery of carbohydrates and protein without putting too much stress on the stomach. Because of that Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® is the perfect solution even during the time of extreme exhaustion, when consumption of high volume meals or drinks is impossible. Just 2-3 packages of Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® provides a sufficient amount of carbohydrates and protein ensuring efficient and fast post-workout regeneration.
Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® in every portion contains an optimal dose of high quality collagen protein hydrolysate delivering all the essential amino acids, including branched amino acids (BCAA). Delivery of all the essential amino acids supports positive nitrogen balance after the workouts ensuring fast and efficient regeneration and adaptation.
The highest nutritional value of collagen protein hydrolysate contained in Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® ensures delivery of easily accessible peptides quickly absorbed from intestines into the bloodstream without stressing the gastrointestinal tract. Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® is a perfect gel for post-workout regeneration, because contrary to regular food and carbohydrate-protein supplements, it delivers optimal amount of protein and carbohydrates in very low volume of gel, without any substances “redundant” at this moment, like fiber or fat.
Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® decreases the negative effects of free radicals created during intensive physical activity. Antioxidant vitamin complex (vitamin C and E) contained in Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® in optimal doses, on the one hand supports the elimination of free radicals, and on the other hand doesn’t inhibit post-workout adaptation processes often observed when excessive amounts of antioxidants are used.1
Despite high concentration of nutrients Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® has semifluid consistency, that makes package emptying fast and easy. Easy emptying of every package of Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® guarantees that the whole supplement (and all of the nutrients) is ingested, and nothing is left in the package. Moreover, semiliquid consistency of Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® makes it easy to consume even in the state of total exhaustion that can occur after extremely intensive workout.
Vitarade® Recovery Gel fueled by Vitargo® tastes great, so every taken portion encourages further use, ensuring optimal replenishing and synthesis of muscle and liver glycogen.
