Klean RecoveryTM is tested and certified by the NSF Certified for Sport® program, which was created to meet the growing demands of athletes, coaches and healthcare professionals to certify that sports supplements are safe and completely free from banned substances. Every product that carries the NSF Certified for Sport® mark has undergone stringent laboratory testing to confirm content, purity and compliance.

INDICATIONS

• Supports muscle recovery after exercise ‡

• Provides nutrients for optimal glycogen replacement ‡

  FUNCTIONS AND MECHANISM OF ACTION

  Nutrient timing is crucial to an athlete’s recovery and muscle tissue repair following endurance or resistance exercise. Intense, prolonged exercise depletes muscle and liver stores of glycogen; subsequently, muscle tissue may be used as a fuel source. Muscle protein synthesis is stimulated in the recovery period after resistance exercise; however, the rate of muscle protein breakdown also increases, thereby blunting the change in the net balance between synthesis and breakdown. Post-exercise, muscles move from the catabolic mode to the critical anabolic phase, which depends on the action of insulin and nutrient utilization during the first 30–45 minutes. The results of several studies in animals and humans suggest that post exercise muscle glycogen storage can be enhanced with a carbohydrate-protein supplement as a result of the interaction of carbohydrate and protein on insulin secretion. Protein synthesis was shown to be three times greater with a carbohydrate-protein supplement immediately after exercise versus 3 hours later. Athletes may require significantly more total protein from food and supplements combined, typically ranging from 1-1.5 g protein/ kg of body weight. Whey protein contains all essential amino acids, including branched-chain amino acids, while being very low in lactose and fat, making it more tolerable for some individuals. The International Society of Sports Nutrition’s position on nutrient timing suggests that a carbohydrate to protein ratio of 3–4:1 supports glycogen re-synthesis during acute and subsequent bouts of endurance exercise. ‡
