What are Carbohydrates? and how do they benefit me? Wed Sep 17 05:10:00 UTC 2008
Carbohydrates, Considered the most valuable nutrient in the body. Carbohydrates are composed of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen molecules, combining to form various types of sugars to get fast energy. Carbohydrates are the body’s main source of energy and are classified as simple sugars and complex carbohydrates<o:p> </o:p>
Simple Sugars – are made up of monosaccharides and disaccharides
<o:p> </o:p>
Complex Carbohydrates – are made up of starches, glycogen and fiber
<o:p> </o:p>
Monosaccharides
Glucose – found in the blood stream called Blood sugar
Dominant source of fuel for cells
Fructose- found in fruit, honey and high fructose corn syrup
Converted into glucose in the liver
Galactose- Usually bound with glucose
Converted in liver to glucose
Disaccharides – “Simple Sugars”
Sucrose (Table Sugar)
Lactose (Milk Products)
Maltose (Alchohol Production)
Polysaccharides
Starch – 3,000 or more monosaccharides bounded together
Glycogen – storage form of carbohydrates for animals and humans
Found in liver and muscles
Fiber – Undigested plant food – Body cannot break down the ...
What are Amino Acids, and Why are they important Wed Sep 10 05:32:00 UTC 2008
Not many people know what amino acids are and why they are beneficial, but they serve as a necesary function for daily life especially if you do any sort of training.
Amino Acids:
When you consume your favorite protein drink or eating your favorite meal, what you don't know is that you are consuming Amino Acids. Amino Acids are essentially the building blocks of protein. although there are some variations on to how many different amino acids there really are but one clear classification states that there are 9 essential amino acids and the rest are considered nonessential or sometimes called dispensable amino acids. Essential Amino Acids are those amino acids that you get from food sources, because the body cannot produce these amino acids. the others are considered dispensable because the body produces theses amino acids.
Why Amino Acids:
Amino acids like stated before are the basis of protein and the body needs these amino acids for muscle building and other essential body functions. The importance of amino acids resides around that of anyone who participates in any training regimen. If someone is going through a tough and demanding workout where some ...
Whey and casein are both milk proteins but they have different profiles in their amino acids and their functions. Whey protein has been a huge leader in the protein world because of its protein quality, and marketing towards sport athletes, but whats the difference and what is best for you?
Advantages of Whey:
Digests faster than casein, thus gets to the muscle faster to start building muscle. Whey protein isolate is formulated so that you don't get the fat or the lactose you get from casein. Why is that great? well you get all the advantages of protein without the lactose and fat!
Advatages of Casein:
Casein has a source of high glutamine content, which out of the two casein contains the highest amounts of the amino acid glutamine, which can benefit bodybuilders and athletes by helping preserve muscle mass and aiding immune system function. Also glutamine is considered conditionally indispensable especially with exercises such as endurance training or long bouts of exercise, so taking a supplement without it, it may be ...
Before we look at the uses of whey, we must define what whey is.
Whey is a milk protein that has a high level of branched chain amino acids which is necessary for muscle growth and muscle repair. Whey is a byproduct of cheese making which has shown that combined with weight training lean muscle mass and strength have been shown to increase. Whey digests fast so travels straight to the muscles and starts the repair process.
Uses for Whey Protein:
Increases Strength
Increases lean body mass
Decrease fat tissue (when combined with cardiovascular exercise and/or resistance training)
There are many recommendations for the amount of whey protein that is necessary to build muscle and gain size:
Active adults (recreational athletes) = .8 - 1 gram per kilogram (1Lb = 2.2 Kg)
Endurance Athletes = 1.2 - 1.4 gram per kilogram
Strength Athletes = 1.6 - 1.7 gram per kilogram
Weight gain/ Weight Loss = 1.6 - 2.0 gram per kilogram
Team Sport Athletes = 1.2 ...

Myopathy, a neuromuscular disease in which the muscle fibers do not function for any one of many reasons resulting in muscular weakness, has been proven to reverse the effects of myopathies if used with a short to medium term creatine program.<o:p></o:p>
