Are you pushing your body to its limit when you exercise and still eating right? Do you eat a diet consisting of 5-8 servings of fruits and vegetables per day to ensure an adequate intake of antioxidants? Are you certain the foods you're eating are getting absorbed and utilized optimally? If you answered 'no' to any of the these questions, chances are you're not receiving the necessary nutrients to optimize health, boost energy and performance, reduce fatigue or facilitate recovery.

Muscle Shield™ is an antioxidant-nutrient system formulated to combat the the muscle damaging effects of free-radicals that proliferate in the body during intense physical exercise. In addition, Muscle Shield™ is enriched with a digestive enzyme system that optimize protein and carbohydrate utilization in foods we eat to enhance muscle protein synthesis and glycogen (energy) replenishment. What is more, Muscle Shield™ is fortified with a highly-bioavailable blend of vitamins and minerals that effectively target an athlete's nutritional zones based on a number of scientific nutrient ranges to further optimize health, performance and recovery.

The importance of antioxidant vitamins has become a popular topic of discussion and study in the fields of sport nutrition and cellular biology. Many researchers suggest the dietary intake of antioxidants, like those found in Muscle Shield™, to help combat the negative effects of exercise induced free-radical release. Research studies show free-radical generation increases after intense physical exercise, which coincide with oxidative muscle damage. Free-radicals are unstable by-products of our body's natural metabolic processes that cause damage to healthy cells. Because free-radicals are highly reactive, several laboratory studies have linked the damaging accumulation of free-radicals with a negative impact on an athlete's performance. Using Muscle Shield™ daily helps support the athlete's body with sufficient levels of antioxidant compounds that can actively seek out and pair with reactive free-radicals to neutralize their ability to damage cells.
