Dymatize Elite 12 Hour Meal Replacement has revolutionized the Meal Replacement category. No added fructose, sucrose, fillers or aspartame. Dymatize Elite 12 Hour Meal Replacement is designed to be the ultimate high performance muscle fuel and prolonged recovery formula. Knowing that protein helps fuel the body throughout the day and helps to repair muscles after a workout or other activity, Dymatize developed a Protein Matrix that took recovery to the next level. We combined this revolutionary Protein Matrix with a thorough Vitamin and Mineral Blend, a complete Lipid blend, an advanced Fiber Compound as well as added digestive enzymes to create the ultimate Meal Replacement product. After a battery of tests and trials, we have developed a calculated protein timing system that we call Sustained Muscle Saturation Technology (SMST). How does SMST work? Different proteins have different chemical compositions and different rates at which they can be assimilated by the body. By developing an absorption time-line of the highest quality proteins, we were able to create the basis of the 12-hour formula. We then added the advanced enzyme matrix Zytrix to more efficiently aid in the absorption of proteins, as well as an advanced lipid blend that specifically promotes a longer absorption rate of the proteins allowing for a complete anabolic, nitrogen rich environment to be sustained in the body over an extended period of time. To develop Dymatize Elite 12 Hour Meal Replacement, every facet of protein usage was analyzed. Nitrogen retention and absorption is a combination of several different factors and each source of protein has its own results. These factors include: 1 Rate of Absorption (RA), the rate each different protein source releases its amino acids. 2. Protein Digestibility Correct Amino Acid Score (PDCAAS). An evaluation best method used by the FDA and FAO/WHO which uses nitrogen absorption and amino acid profile to rate quality. 3. Amino Acid Profile. Each protein source has its own unique amino acid profile. 4. Biological Value (BV). Derived from the amount of Nitrogen absorbed over the amount of Nitrogen incorporated into the body. Helps determine the amount of protein absorbed from different protein sources. 5. Net Protein Utilization (NPU) is used to determine the ideal amount of essential amino acids. 6. Protein Efficiency Ratio (PER). Through our research, we determined that no single existing natural protein source was ideal for achieving extended release anabolic effects. The optimal source was found to be a fusion of several different complete protein sources, in addition to added free form branch chain amino acids and other free form amino acids. Whey protein has the highest BV of any natural complete protein source, and whey also has the highest rating of PDCAAS and because of this, forms the basis of our 12 Hour Protein. Top rated performers Milk and Egg Protein have also been added to fully enhance whey's effectiveness over a sustained period of time. Our exclusive blend helps enhance and prolong the Positive Nitrogen Balance Dymatize 12 Hour Protein was developed to help you achieve. Manufactured at a FDA inspected facility. Quality Guaranteed.
