Silk Amino Acids, A Great Supplement For Those Who Train Hard!

SILK AMINO ACIDS-- I highly recommend taking a silk amino acid supplement especially if you workout early in the morning before you've had a chance to get a lot of protein in your system! 

What it is: As the name describes, these amino acids are derived from silk protein. The protein is hydrolyzed to produce polypeptides composed mainly of the amino acids alanine, glycine, serine, valine, and threonine. While each of these amino acids benefits the body individually, research shows that they can also work together to deliver a plethora of benefits.
Why you should take it: Animal studies
have shown that
 silk amino acids
 can more than
 double exercise
 endurance, while 
helping to prevent muscle breakdown. Remember, having more lean muscle mass means less body fat and a higher metabolism. Other research shows that silk amino acids may also lower blood cholesterol, triglyceride, and glucose levels, as well as provide potent antioxidant benefits.
How you should take it: Take 1 serving about 30 minutes before exercise. You can also drink amino acids intra workout and post workout in your recovery shake. Some great ones to try are  in the picture above. Some contain caffeine while others don't.
