Each 2lb Isobolic Protein Supplement contains approximately 30 servings

ISOBOLIC’S STRATEGY: A Gold-Standard Protein Supplement

Serious athletes dedicated to continuous progress in size, strength and muscularity are super conscious of the quality and quantity of their daily protein intake. That’s why Nutrabolics developed the "industry standard"¬¬ for protein supplements — IsoBolic. No ordinary off-the-shelf protein product, this unique supplement incorporates the best science has to offer. Point blank, IsoBolic is a true Designer Bodybuilding Food, a must-have supplement that should be at the root of every elite competitor’s nutritional arsenal.

ISOBOLIC’S TACTICS: Maximum Amino-Acid Availability

An athlete’s body constantly fluctuates between lean-tissue accumulation (amino-acid usage for building/repair or "anabolism") and lean-tissue breakdown (amino-acid usage for energy or "catabolism")ⁱ. Balancing this persistent battle dictates body progression or stagnation. An effective protein supplement improves net nitrogen retention, promoting anabolism and decreasing catabolism . To promote a beneficial metabolic status, IsoBolic combines a "physiologically specific " array of protein components, isolated by sophisticated processing technologies, and integrates essential fatty acids, fiber and enzymes to provide a constant supply of amino acids and support a structured diet and vigorous weight-training regimen.

ISOBOLIC'S INTEGRALS: Fast-Acting, Punch-Packing Ingredients

Cross-Flow Micro-Filtered Whey Protein Isolate – Unlike inferior proteins processed via "Ion Exchange," which uses destructive chemicals to separate various milk protein components, IsoBolic’s unique whey isolates are only exposed to a low-temperature process that isolates the native protein at its biologically natural pH, carefully preserving its biological activity. Cross-Flow Micro-Filtered Whey Protein Isolate supplies the highest levels of di-, tri-, and oligo-whey peptides, including over 10% immunoglobulins (vital antibodies that support a balanced, healthy immune response). This process offers the purest, fastest acting and most digestible whey protein available.

Native Micellar Casein – In several studies, IsoBolic’s major protein component, Micellar Casein, has proven to maximize net nitrogen retention, absorption efficiency, and protein synthesis^{iii, iv, v, vi, vii}. Micellar Casein behaves like tissue protein (chicken, beef, etc.), because it congeals in the stomach and the breakdown process elicits a time-release effect on protein synthesis. In that respect, IsoBolic performs much like whole food and delivers a slow, sustained release of amino acids into the bloodstream. This slow, six-hour dispersion period increases total protein synthesis and can be a valuable adjunct to a structured diet and vigorous weight-training regimen^viii.

Egg Protein Isolate (Egg Albumin) – Egg Protein Isolate is a rich source of sulphur-bearing amino acids critical to numerous pathways that enhance cell repair. Also known as "methyl donors," sulphur-producing amino acids assist in the formation of methionine, which is the first amino acid to "join the team" when creating many new cells and is, therefore, a "must have" to promote an effective use of protein.

Essential Fatty Acids (EFA's) including, CLA and Flax Seed Powder – IsoBolic provides added "healthy fats" critical in maintaining healthy testosterone levels. EFA's also produce good prostaglandins that insure the actions of several key hormones are working optimally.
