Muscle Aid

Description

Our Muscle Aid is not just a supplement, it's a proactive measure to prevent muscle breakdown. It offers a concentrated source of key amino acids, the building blocks of protein, which are essential for healthy muscle function, growth, and repair. When a single amino acid is lacking in the diet, the entire protein chain breaks. By providing these key amino acids, Muscle Aid helps you take responsibility for your horse's muscle health.

Key Benefits

• L-Leucine: An essential amino acid that supports muscle endurance and promotes muscle recovery. Leucine is one of the most important essential amino acids. Research has shown that Leucine plays a vital role in the stimulation of the mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) pathway. Leucine also contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass.
• L-Lysine: This essential amino acid must be obtained through diet, however, it is often deficient due to low levels in commonly fed grass and cereal grains. Lysine is especially important for young stock as low levels can result in limited development and growth.
• L-Arginine: This amino acid has 2 jobs, it helps the body build protein and it turns into nitric oxide. This means it can potentially host a range of benefits including aiding muscle build and heart health. Supplementation of this amino acid has been shown to delay time to exhaustion and onset fatigue, in addition to increasing muscle strength and performance, reducing blood pressure and increasing oxygen uptake, as well as decreasing inflammation and enhancing muscle regeneration resulting in a potential beneficial effects on exercise performance.
