Conclusion

Factors such as high protein intake and over-processing may contribute to a decreased absorption rate of WPC and lower than expected blood levels of individual amino acids. This may also cause digestion to take longer and be less complete than expected. The results of this study indicate that supplementing 50 g of WPC with 50 mg/g or 100 mg/g Aminogen®, a blend of food grade proteases from Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus oryzae patented for use as a digestive aid, significantly increased the absorption rate of WPC over controls. This is reflected in statistically significant (p ≤ 0.05) increases in postprandial AUC, TSAA levels, ISAA levels and N2 balance. Significant decreases in CRP levels and fluxes in AA levels (possibly contributing to a decrease in whole body protein metabolism) are also reported. Further, these results indicate the need for further research in the area of enzyme supplementation for a more complete digestion of protein and perhaps other processed foods.

AMINOGEN INCREASES NITROGEN RETENTION BY 32%

Research confirms Aminogen’s ability to raise nitrogen retention levels:

More Nitrogen:

* More efficient protein metabolism
* Increases muscle mass and strength
* Increases anti-catabolic activity

THE BREAKDOWN

Aminogen gives you MORE from your protein by helping your body break down and ABSORB MORE amino acids, and maintain a better nitrogen balance.

Getting MORE from your protein with Aminogen means:

* 100% more amino acids
* 250% more branched-chain amino acids
* 32% more nitrogen
* More efficient protein utilization
* More lean muscle mass
* More muscle strength and energy

And that leads to:

* Less gas, bloating, and constipation
* Less muscle fatigue
* Less time waiting for muscle recovery
* Slashes your recovery time
