Calcium
Calcium is a vital nutrient found in various foods such as dairy products, certain vegetables, and many fortified items. Over 99% of the body's calcium is stored in the bones and teeth, predominantly as hydroxyapatite. The remaining calcium circulates in the blood, extracellular fluid, muscles, and other tissues, where it is essential for processes like nerve signaling, muscle contraction, vascular activities, glandular secretion, and maintaining cell membrane and capillary permeability. It also plays critical roles in enzyme reactions, respiration, kidney function, and blood clotting, and is involved in neurotransmitter and hormone release, amino acid uptake, vitamin B12 absorption, and gastrin secretion. Calcium balance changes with age: it is positive during periods of growth, stable in adulthood, and tends to become negative in older age. Calcium loss occurs through feces, urine, sweat, and shedding skin cells. In women, reduced estrogen levels decrease calcium absorption and retention, increase bone turnover, and lead to lower bone mass. Calcium supplements come in various forms, including citrate and carbonate, which differ mainly in their calcium content and absorption rates. Calcium citrate is easily absorbed and can be taken without food, making it suitable for older adults or those with low stomach acid. In contrast, calcium carbonate, which contains a higher percentage of calcium, is best absorbed when taken with meals.

Vitamin B3
Niacin, also known as vitamin B3, is a water-soluble vitamin found in a variety of foods, including meat, poultry, fish, and fortified grains. It plays a variety of roles in the body, including in the metabolism of carbohydrates, fats, and proteins. It is also necessary for the production of energy in the body and in the synthesis of different hormones. Niacin deficiency is rare in developed countries, however, supplementation has been shown to have several positive benefits. For example, it can reduce the risk of diabetic neuropathy (i.e., nerve pain) and has been shown effective for treating some types of high cholesterol (extended-release niacin is used as a prescription drug in the United States for this purpose). There is a multitude of niacin forms available as dietary supplements, including NADH, niacinamide, and nicotinamide riboside, all with different properties.

Vitamin B12
Vitamin B12, also known as cobalamin, is a water-soluble vitamin crucial for several bodily functions. It plays a pivotal role in the formation of red blood cells, aiding in the prevention of anemia. Vitamin B12 is essential for maintaining a healthy nervous system and proper brain function, as it is involved in the synthesis of myelin, the protective sheath around nerve fibers. This vitamin is primarily found in animal-based foods such as meat, fish, dairy products, and eggs, making it important for vegetarians and vegans to consider supplementation. A deficiency in vitamin B12 can lead to neurological issues, fatigue, and cognitive impairment.

Ingredient Group Alanine Category amino acid
L-Glutamine
Description:L-glutamine is the most abundant free amino acid in the body, produced primarily in skeletal muscle and then released into circulation. It serves vital roles in various tissues, including the immune system, gastrointestinal tract, kidneys, and liver, where it supports essential functions such as maintaining intestinal integrity, immune response, and amino acid balance. Although traditionally classified as a non-essential amino acid, during periods of severe stress, glutamine becomes conditionally essential due to the body's increased demand. It acts as a critical nitrogen and carbon transporter between organs, and while the intestinal mucosa can synthesize glutamine, this production is insufficient during times of significant physiological stress. Dietary supplements generally contain L-glutamine as it is the biologically active form of the amino acid.

L-Glycine
Description:Glycine is an amino acid found naturally in the body and is also available as a dietary supplement. It is considered a non-essential amino acid, meaning that the body can produce it on its own. Glycine supplementation has been studied for its potential to help improve sleep quality as it is purported to help to promote relaxation and reduce muscle tension. Some studies have also suggested that it may help to improve symptoms of sleep disorders such as insomnia. Glycine has also been studied for its potential to help with the management of some types of chronic pain, such as osteoarthritis, and for improving cognitive function.

| General Statements |
- How your muscles look and feel depends on one thing Glycogen. Glycogen is the key form of energy storage in your body and is critical to fuel ATP for muscular contraction, blood vessel dilation, increased vascularity, and for hydrating muscles…giving you a lean, hard, more defined look that all athletes aspire to obtain. Carb-Loading has been practiced by athletes for decades, but even complex training methods and diets have often failed due to the inability to properly absorb & store the rapid high dose of fast sugars that are often consumed. While several products have attempted to induce glycogen replenishment, they too have often been overdosed with excessive amounts of various carbohydrate forms, posing a problem for the body to utilize properly, causing the extra sugar to convert to fat.
- So how does it work? Unlike multi-carbohydrate powders which function uncontrollably in the body, GlycoLoad’s uniquely developed single high-molecular weight; low osmolality carbohydrate was specifically designed to function in only one way…to load glycogen into the muscles. The unique carbohydrate structure found in GlycoLoad, does not process through stomach-digestion like regular carbohydrates, rather it enters the lower GI track (small intestine) for slow assimilation into the blood stream. This steady absorption optimizes insulin levels, allowing more GlycoLoad to enter the blood stream for higher conversion to Glycogen in the muscles. More Glycogen in the body leads to in increased muscle size, endurance and strength…not to mention the improved muscle recovery after long strenuous exercise. GlycoLoad is further strengthened by unique peptide-bonded glycogen promoting pharmaceutical amino acids, powerful antioxidants, critical electrolytes and insulin mimicking pre-cursers. The addition of these specific ingredients insure that every gram of carbohydrate in GlycoLoad is effectively converted and absorbed for rapid glycogen replenishment. The best part, GlycoLoad’s powerful, small-dose format is easier to mix and digest…eliminating gas, cramping and bloating, making it perfect for the beginner to the advanced user.
- GlycoLoad provides everything you need to make the most out of your workouts with several great tasting and easy to mix flavors that will have your taste buds craving it again and again. GlycoLoad also comes in an unflavored version, so you can add it to your favorite pre-workout or protein supplement. As with all Metabolic Nutrition products, GlycoLoad is physician formulated and tested using only the highest quality ingredients which have passed our rigorous high standard tests.
