Everyone is an athlete now.
The personal fitness movement has exploded in recent years as people have woken up to its wide range of benefits. More and more people are taking their fitness seriously, and now muscle recovery has become an important part of workout regiments and exercise routines.
Recovery is part of the workout.
Recovera improves muscle recovery in multiple ways. First it modulates insulin response and stimulates nutrient uptake in cells which helps the muscles regain energy in the form of blood sugar post-workout. It also boosts glycogen resynthesis which restores the muscles' ability to turn carbohydrates into energy during intervals of workout. These two properties together make Recovera a key supplement for the muscle recovery process. Taking Recovera alone or in combination with Leucine greatly impacts the insulin release and facilitates muscle uptake in cells.
Power plant Opuntia ficus-indica.
The botanical extract Recovera is gained from the most valuable actives in Prickly Pear Cactus (Opuntia ficus-indica) in a patented process. A proprietary ratio of fruit skins and cladodes from controlled cultivation is used for extract preparation. The effects have been demonstrated in human clinical trials, making Recovera a proven ingredient in muscle recovery applications within the Sports Nutrition market.
Healthy muscles are well fed.
Recovera helps feed energy to the muscles and boosts recovery as it stimulates nutrient uptake in cells especially after workouts. It promotes glycogen resynthesis and supports the muscles to turn carbohydrates into energy between workouts.
Here’s what you need to know:
