How to Increase HRV by Michael Kummer Other considerations to improve your heart rate variability are use of amino acids, such as FundAminos, a solid protein powder supplement such as PureClean Protein and ensuring proper nutrition with wholefood micronutrient supplements. The other day, I looked at the biometric data captured by my WHOOP strap back in early 2019, which was shortly after I started using the device to track my fitness and sleep.  One thing I noticed was that my average heart rate variability (HRV) was about 20 milliseconds lower than it is today. In other words, I’ve seen a significant improvement...

Amino acids and ketoacids offer muscle support in protein-restricted patients Supplementation of essential amino acids and ketoacids can improve muscle mass and strength in individuals with pre-dialysis chronic kidney disease (CKD) on low protein diets, a new review has concluded. HTTPS://WWW.NUTRAINGREDIENTS.COM/ARTICLE/2023/07/17/AMINO-ACIDS-AND-KETOACIDS-OFFER-MUSCLE-SUPPORT-IN-PROTEIN-RESTRICTED-PATIENTS Amino acids play a crucial role in supporting overall health, enhancing physical performance, and sustaining energy levels in the body. These organic compounds are the building blocks of proteins, which are vital for muscle growth, repair, and maintenance. Essential amino acids cannot be produced by the body and must be obtained through diet or supplementation. They are key in...

Essential Amino Acids Improve Fatigue Resistance by 40% In a study published in the Journal of Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, researchers explored the effects of a carbohydrate-protein beverage on muscle recovery, muscle mass, energy, and fatigue resistance. Upon analyzing the findings, it becomes evident that incorporating a supplement containing essential amino acids such as FundAminos into one's regimen can yield massive and substantial benefits. The study revealed that essential amino acids exhibited a remarkable capacity to enhance fatigue resistance by an impressive 40%. This finding highlights the supplement's ability to support individuals in their pursuit of prolonged physical...

How To Calculate How Many Grams Of Protein You Need Per Day With the PureClean Performance Protein Calculator Are you getting enough protein?   The Journal of Nutrition, Health, and Aging says, no! Open the door to sarcopenia, accelerated ageing, poor bone health, and increased injury, poor performance and recovery, and activity-based fatigue (among many bad things!).    That's right, even with today's high nutrition standards and quality of life (and loads of supplements, even protein powder), most people don't even get close enough protein, especially athletes! We will tell you why soon.   How much protein, you would ask, should...
