the building
blocks of life
1
Amino acids are the fundamental building blocks of life as we know it. They join together to form protein, the material that forms all of the muscles, tendons, and organs in our bodies.
2
When we eat protein, our bodies must first break it down to extract the amino acids needed to repair and grow new muscle fibers. The absorbed amino acids are why we need to eat protein.
3
Our bodies can create non-essential amino acids on their own. The 9 amino acids that cannot be produced in the body are called essential amino acids (EAAs) and must be obtained from the diet.
4
In the absence of dietary EAAs our bodies will break down muscle to extract the EAAs needed to maintain our other tissues and organs.
5
High-protein foods can contain up to 25% EAAs, whereas Promino™ consists of 100% fully bioavailable EAAs.*
6
All 9 EAAs need to be provided in the exact profile to stimulate optimal muscle protein synthesis. Relying on individual amino acid supplements (eg. BCAA sups) is ineffective. The ratio matters.*
7
The Promino™ formula is clinically proven to give your body the exact ratio of EAAs needed for optimal muscle protein synthesis. All in a convenient single daily serving.*
MPS Studies
2X more effective than whey protein*
PROMINO™ has been found to be twice as effective as whey protein and triggering muscle protein synthesis.*
TAKEAWAY: Because our formula provides the precise ratio of amino acids found to induce optimal Muscle Protein Synthesis (MPS), whey and other protein sources just don’t stand a chance.*
FAQS
What are amino acids?
Amino acids are the fundamental building blocks of life as we know it. They join together to form protein, the material that forms all of the muscles, tendons, and organs in our bodies.
What are essential amino acids (EAAs)?
9 specific amino acids that cannot be produced in the body are called essential amino acids (EAAs). EAAs must be obtained from the diet. In fact, EAAs are the only dietary “macronutrient” that you must eat to survive. You can get these EAAs directly in the amino acid form or as a component of dietary protein.*
Why is Promino™ more effective than whey or other proteins?
Amino acids are the building blocks of protein. When we eat protein, it is digested so that the component amino acids are absorbed into the body. The absorbed amino acids are why we need to eat protein. With Promino™ you give your body these building blocks directly, skipping the extra conversion step needed when ingesting protein.*
How is Promino™ different from other amino acid supplements?
There are regulatory mechanisms that maintain a balance of all the EAAs when an excess of one is consumed. It is crucial to get the dosage correct. Our formula has undergone extensive clinical trials to find the most optimal ratio and potency of all 9 EAAs to effectively trigger muscle protein synthesis (MPS). The ratio matters.*
What is muscle protein synthesis (MPS) and turnover?
All proteins in the body are in a constant state of turnover. The breakdown of body proteins provides a steady supply of amino acids to produce new proteins. We must replace the amino acids that are continuously lost as a consequence of muscle loss and repair (metabolic degradation).*
Do I have to exercise for Promino™ to be effective?
While exercise will improve the effectiveness and results, it is not required. Promino™ has been shown to increase muscle protein synthesis by 76%* even at rest!
How long do I need to take the products? What can I expect?
Our products are designed to become a way of life, not just a crash diet or “detox” to be endured for two or three weeks. Since Promino™ works with your body’s natural processes, the benefits will grow the longer the products are used. Customers report feeling benefits such as increased energy, strength, and overall vitality after just a few days of use. With long-term, consistent use you can expect improvements in metabolic health, increases in lean body mass, reduced fat mass, and improved overall health levels.*
Are your products safe?
The Promino™ formula uses ingredients that are Generally Regarded as Safe (GRAS) by the FDA and have no demonstrated adverse effects.*
