Master Amino Acid Pattern

[Guest guest]

What is the full significance of the below studies for CRON? They

remind me of the futuristic thinking during the 1950's about getting

everything you need to live on in a single pill.

Master Amino acid Pattern as substitute for dietary proteins during a

weight-loss diet to achieve the body's nitrogen balance equilibrium

with essentially no calories.

Results of this multicentric study have shown that by giving 10 g (10

tablets) of Master Amino acid Pattern (MAP) as a substitute for

dietary proteins, once a day, to 114 overweight participants

undergoing the American Nutrition Clinics/Overweight Management

Program (ANC/OMP), the participants' nitrogen balance could be

maintained in equilibrium with essentially no calories (MAP 1 g=0.04

kcal), thereby preserving the body's structural and functional

proteins, eliminating excessive water retention from the interstitial

compartment, and preventing the sudden weight increase after study

conclusion commonly known as the yo-yo effect. Study results have

shown that the use of MAP, in conjunction with the ANC/OMP, has

proven to be safe and effective by preventing those adverse effects

associated with a negative nitrogen balance, such as oversized or

flabby tissue, stretch marks, sagging of breast tissue, increased

hair loss, faded hair color, and fragile or brittle nails. Also

preventing those anomalies commonly associated with weight-loss

diets, such as hunger, weakness, headache caused by ketosis,

constipation, or decreased libido, the use of MAP, in conjunction

with the ANC/OMP, allowed for mean weight loss of 1.4 kg (3 lb) per

week.

Results of taking Master Amino acid Pattern as a sole and total

substitute of dietary proteins in an athlete during a desert crossing.

Study results show that a 51-year-old female athlete, while taking

the Master Amino acid Pattern (MAP) as a sole and total substitute

for dietary protein, and performing physical activity, experienced

(1) increased body muscle mass, strength, and endurance; (2)

decreased body fat mass; (3) greater increase in performance of the

nonprevailing muscles compared to the prevailing muscles; (4)

improved cardiorespiratory performance; and (5) increased red blood

cells, hemoglobin, and hematocrit parameters. It was concluded,

confirming previous findings, that use of MAP as a sole and total

substitute for dietary protein, in conjunction with physical

activity, provides safer, unprecedented optimization of the body's

protein synthesis, thereby improving anthropometric characteristics

and physical and physiologic performance.

with or without the use of Master Amino acid Pattern as protein

substitute.

Comparative results of this study have shown that athletes, by taking

the Master Amino acid Pattern (MAP) as a dietary protein substitute

and performing physical activity, have had (1) increased body muscle

mass, strength, and endurance; (2) decreased fat mass; (3) increased

basal metabolism rate; (4) greater improvement in performance of the

nonprevailing muscles compared to the prevailing ones; and (5)

improved muscular and hematologic lactate clearance, which allows for

better muscle performance and faster muscle recovery after physical

activity. It was concluded that the use of MAP as a dietary protein

substitute in conjunction with physical activity can provide a safe

and unprecedented way to optimize the body's protein synthesis,

thereby improving anthropometric characteristics and physical and

physiologic performance.
