Lean Mass Complex review

Published by admin on Tagged Meal Replacements

leanmass.gifSome advantages to using Lean Mass Complex include the convenience to prepare without a blender, it only has 40 grams of protein for each serving, uses only low glycemic carbs, contains essential fatty acids and favors.  And to keep you from getting bored, it has a pretty good variety of flavor selection.

The only apparent con for Lean Mass Complex is that it’s not intended for low carb induction diets.

Lean Mass Complex is made from ultrafiltered protein concentrate, isolate, as well as L-Glutamine.  Additionally, it has no aspartame orAcesulfame-K sweeteners and contains 40 G protein, 40 G cabs, 7 G in EFA fats, and 4 G of fiber.  It’s hard to find a meal replacement that has this ratio of elements.  Prolab introduced this product to fill the void.



What is Vitamin D?

Published by admin on Tagged Vitamins & Minerals

Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin found in food, supplements, and can be made inside your body after exposure to the sun’s UV, or ultraviolet, rays.  UV rays trigger vitamin D synthesis to take place in the skin, making sunshine a significant source of vitamin D.

The major function of vitamin D is to maintain your body’s normal blood levels of calcium and phosphorus.  As vitamin D promotes calcium absorption in your body, it helps your body form and maintain strong b ones.  It also works in alliance with several other vitamins and minerals in your body to encourage bone mineralization.

Deficiency of vitamin D can lead to very serious health problems.  Our bones can become too thin, brittle, or become misshapened.  Getting enough vitamin D helps prevent rickets in children and osteomalacia in older individuals, two forms of skeletal diseases that weaken bones.
