Benefits Of Each Ingredient
Vegan Protein (pea isolate, brown rice, and quinoa)
- Plant-based source of easily digestible essential and branched-chain amino acids.
- Pea protein contains all nine essential amino acids and all three branched-chain amino acids.
MCT Oil
- Supports cognitive function, exercise performance, appetite control, reduced body fat, antioxidant support, increased metabolic rate, increased ketone bodies, reduced inflammation, and may combat neurodegenerative disease (290,291, 292, 293).
- Increases ketone production and provides an energy source during ketogenic diets (290, 292).
- May combat neurodegenerative disease via increased anti-inflammatory effects of ketone bodies (291,293).
- Supports cognitive function via ketone absorption across the blood-brain barrier and utilized as cerebral bioenergetic fuel (290, 292,293).
- Increases metabolic rate via increased thermogenesis and caloric expenditure from exercise (292).
- Increases energy levels via increased absorption and burning of MCT as fuel (292).
Açaí Berry
- Supports antioxidant function, reduces blood pressure, supports kidney health, supports blood sugar regulation, supports cardiovascular health, and may combat against cancer (273,274,275).
- Supports antioxidant function via polyphenolic components with high levels of anthocyanins (cyanidin-3-glucoside and cyanidin-3-rutinoside) (273, 274, 275).
- May combat carcinogenesis via reduction of tumor cell proliferation, multiplicity, and size of the tumors, increased anti-inflammatory capacity, increased antiproliferative activity, and increased pro-apoptotic activity (273).
