Electrolyte/Energy formula, Pure Encapsulations (340 g) Electrolyte/Energy formula Manufacturer: Pure Encapsulations Item #: EEF3 Content: 340 g ORDER or CHECK PRICE > Helps replenish electrolytes lost during exertion; supports physical and mental stamina Electrolyte/Energy formula provides a balanced mix of electrolytes and carbohydrate combined with Krebs cycle intermediates and tyrosine to optimize physical and mental stamina. It is available in a lemon-lime flavored powder for convenient dosing. Uses For Energy/ Electrolytes Promote Endurance: Electrolytes are vital cofactors for muscle energy metabolism and cell function. Suboptimal levels can compromise performance while optimal levels promote endurance and may lessen the perception of exertion during exercise. This formula combines sodium, chloride, potassium, calcium and magnesium to replenish electrolytes lost during exercise and to help retain hydration, particularly for workouts lasting longer than 1-2 hours. Maltodextrin and glucose contained in this formula provide pre-exercise support by providing rapidly available energy and helping to preserve glycogen stores during activity. Additionally, they serve to delay fatigue and help replenish glycogen stores post-exercise. Alpha ketoglutarate and malate are Krebs cycle intermediates, key substrates for energy production that help to maximize fat and carbohydrate utilization. Studies have revealed that alpha ketoglutarate, as a precursor to glutamine, may also help muscle protein synthesis and recovery. The amino acid l-tyrosine is a precursor to the catecholamine neurotransmitters, including dopamine, epinephrine and norepinephrine. Research has indicated that l-tyrosine promotes mental focus under stressful conditions and may also help promote physical endurance. What Is The Source? Calcium, magnesium and potassium are from the lime of rock. Citrate is derived from corn dextrose fermenation. Alpha ketoglutarate and malic acid are synthetically produced. l-Tyrosine (free-form) is derived from soy. Maltodextrin and glucose are derived from corn. Recommendations Pure Encapsulations recommends 1 serving (2 scoops), mixed in 8-10 oz. of water, 20 minutes before intense exercise. Take an additional 2-4 scoops during training or an event if needed.  Supplement Facts (Electrolyte/Energy formula, Pure Encapsulations)   Container Size 340 g   Serving Size 2 Scoops   Amount Per 2 Scoops Content %DV     calories 60   carbohydrate 14 g   sugars (glucose) 7 g   other (maltodextrin) 7 g   ascorbic acid 200 mg   calcium (citrate) 100 mg   magnesium (citrate) 100 mg   chloride (as sodium chloride) 150 mg   sodium (as sodium chloride) 100 mg   potassium (phosphate) 100 mg   alpha ketoglutarate 200 mg   malic acid 200 mg   l-tyrosine (free-form) 500 mg     other ingredients: maltodextrin, glucose, natural lemon-lime flavor   % Daily Values (DV) are based on a 2,000 calorie diet. * Daily Value (DV) not established.                 About Us   |   Order Status   |   User Agreement   |   Privacy   |   Security   |   Site Map   |   Help
