Why EMERALD
BALANCE is Essential for Athletes and Bodybuilders
Emerald Balance Corrects Your pH Levels When on a High Protein Diet:
If
you're a bodybuilder or athlete, keeping your body's pH level in the optimal range is essential
when consuming a high protein diet. With the body's pH levels out of balance, it can
actually prohibit the absorption of essential nutrients needed to stay healthy.
How does this happen? One answer may surprise you . . . Protein, which is vital
for maintaining lean muscle and your health, can also create an
acidic condition in your body's pH balance. The same protein that you need to
live and build muscle can actually over-burden your cells making them toxic and
acidic! Another benefit to keeping your body's pH levels within normal ranges of
7.4, is to aid in recovery with excess lactic acid build up.
Emerald Balance Supports Faster Muscle Recovery:
Emerald Balance has included turmeric, ginger, and pineapple (a good source of
bromelain) to its powerhouse formula to aid in minimizing inflammation to help muscle recovery. We've also added grape seed extract known for its
Oligomeric Proanthocyanidins (OPCs), OPC's have been found to help prevent
inflammation by preventing the release of collagenase and elastase from cells.
Emerald Balance Delivers High Amounts of Antioxidants:
A well known effect of intense exercise is that it raises oxidative stress and
increases free radical production. Antioxidants help rid the body of free
radicals, and help with maintaining a healthy body inside and out. Research has
validated that antioxidants found in combinations of nutrients in whole foods
have a greater protective effect than each nutrient taken alone. Emerald Balance
delivers high amounts of antioxidants from over 40 nutrient-dense SuperFoods
with more antioxidant capacity than 8-10 servings of fruits & vegetables
with an ORAC value (Oxygen Radical Absorbance Capacity) of over 3000! Just one
severing of Emerald Balance consumed alone, or added to a daily protein shake
can help balance antioxidant/free radical counts.
Emerald Balance Supports Connective Tissue Health:
Emerald Balance
contains high amounts of Silica, which is used to treat
connective tissue injuries (common when lifting heavy weights or performing
strenuous exercise), stimulate healing of broken bones, and to promote
healthy eyes, hair, skin, and nails. The essential element, silicon, is present
in very large amounts in horsetail and bamboo. Because silica is essential for
growth, and healing is a major constituent of bones, cartilage, connective
tissue, and skin, it is recommended to prevent and treat disorders pertaining to
these areas of the body. The highest levels of silicon in humans are found in
the skin and connective tissues.
Emerald Balance Builds a Strong Immune System:
The SuperFoods found in Emerald Balance can add the extra support needed to
strengthen an immune system. Astragalus, spirulina, chlorella, barley grass,
royal jelly, and probiotics all help to enhance an immune system. Astragalus,
spirulina, and royal jelly have been found to stimulate the production of white
blood cells and red blood cells, and probiotics are beneficial bacteria that
help strengthen the immune system functions of the intestines.
