Greetings,
MAP is a dietary supplement recommended for
those individuals with inadequate amino acid intake.
Additionally, it has an amino acid profile that provides
99% Net Nitrogen Utilization (NNU), the highest among
any dietary protein.
This month, Triathlete Magazine published my article on
Protein Recovery for athletes. We have reprinted it for
you here. I hope you enjoy it. By the way, MAP is
not just for athletes. It's the most remarkable health
supplement I have ever taken. You may find it works
for you too. - David I. Minkoff, MD

"MAP is a great product. It has really helped
me to
recover from my hard workouts. Racing at a
professional level in international competition like the
Tour de France places extreme demands on one's body.
To try to compete without attention to the best
nutrition would be impossible. I take MAP because
it helps to preserve my muscle strength and recovery,
my immune system and my energy. I can recommend it
highly."

There is much debate among athletes and
nutritionists about how to optimize protein nutrition.
When proteins (or amino acids) are eaten, the body
can utilize them to make new body proteins, or it can
use such proteins for energy. When we speak of the
quality of a protein, we are talking about how close
that protein is in amino acid composition to an ideal
protein. What is the ideal protein? It is that protein
that would be completely used by the body for protein
structure and not for calories for fuel. The term NNU,
reflects the Net Nitrogen Utilization that ends up as
protein in the body. This is the actual protein made into
body structure and not for energy needs.

The Decreasing-Resistance Technique can be
implemented alone or in
combination with the Movement-Segmentation
Technique.
The purpose of this technique is to vary
the degree of weight resistance for a specific muscle
group, beginning with the Maximum Resistance* and
progressively decreasing to the minimum resistance.
This technique can be used for any muscle-group
exercise. *Maximum Resistance (MR) is the maximum
weight that can be actively moved as a result of a
muscle contraction (pull) or extension (push). Proceed
as follows:

| What Athletes Are Saying About MAP |
|
I started taking MAP on a Thursday and
continued to take it Friday, Saturday and Sunday and
ran
Sunday with a group of guys. This group of guys has a
couple of pro's running in it. I rank 7th nationally in my
age group - elite master and I came in #3 of the group
right after the two pro's.
Also, I've had pain in my hamstring muscle. When I
come down on my right leg, the pain will radiate from
the hamstring to the front shin area. When I ran
Sunday
(after taking MAP 4 days), I didn't have this
hamstring pain.
Usually when I run, I limp about the first 1 ½ - 2 miles
and the pain would go away but when I'd stop, the pain
would come back. I've been training every day now
and the pain hasn't come back. J.M. Ohio

Many athletes know
that protein is an important
element to the endurance athlete's recovery and health
in warding off illness. But getting the maximum bang out
of your protein source is the trick. A new product on
the market suggests it does just that.
As a nutritionally oriented medical doctor, my goal is to
restore or maintain optimum health for every person I
see using natural remedies. A person in peak health can
enjoy the competition of racing and training and can
keep their youthful performance far beyond what most
believe is possible. Often, I use my own body for
testing. At 55, I'm not as fast as I used to be, but I am
as intent on improving my performance as ever. I keep
looking for things that make me feel better, give me
better energy, faster recovery and more strength that I
can pass along to others.
Just a few months ago, I found a supplement that was
beyond anything that I have seen. After using it for
four weeks...
