MuscleTech Nitrotech 2lb has been replaced by Nitro-Tech Hardcore.

Bodybuilders never had the chance to buy something better than whey... until now. Not satisfied with the status quo, MuscleTech set its research and development team to the daunting task of improving REGULAR whey protein. After four years of intense research, MuscleTech proudly introduced NITRO-Tech, the world's first nitrogen delivery technology. NITRO-Tech's potent anabolic and anticatabolic properties are due to three important complexes - Synthepro ?, Nitroxen ?, and Insulogen?. These three complexes act together to help amplify the anabolic properties of whey protein by potentially allowing more amino acids to be shuttled into the muscles rather than oxidized, thereby helping to add more lean mass and strength than otherwise possible.

SynthePro ? : A revolutionary whey protein blend exclusive only to MuscleTech. SynthePro ? derives its power from several factors, one of which is the inclusion of whey peptides. These smaller whey peptides are absorbed preferentially by the intestines, shuttling more nitrogen and amino acids to the bloodstream faster than ever before. The result is an intrinsic signal for the body to upregulate protein synthesis.1 In addition to that, MuscleTech also included WPI-97 - a 97 percent whey protein isolate. This is the most refined whey protein isolate in the world! MuscleTech is one of the only sport nutrition supplement companies to include this highly concentrated protein source in a whey protein formula. NITRO-Tech also contains a time-released portion of whey protein to promote a rapid, yet partially prolonged, absorption rate. This effect may help prevent muscle catabolism. MuscleTech also knew that to trigger optimum protein synthesis in the muscles, they needed to jump-start protein synthesis by including the amino acids L-leucine and L-methionine. These two amino acids are rapidly absorbed, signaling muscles to begin synthesizing more protein.2

MuscleTech is confident that SynthePro ? is the most effective whey protein complex they have ever formulated!

Nitroxen ? : An advanced nutrient complex designed to help increase insulin sensitivity and output, vasodilatation, protein synthesis and nitrogen retention via nitric oxide.3,4,5,6,7,8 By increasing vasodilation, there is enhanced blood flow to the muscles, allowing for increased amino acid absorption by the muscles. Moreover, by increasing insulin output and sensitivity, there may be even greater amino acid uptake by the muscles where they can be incorporated into new muscle tissue. Using glycosidal saponins, shown in clinical studies to increase nitric oxide output along with arginine and folic acid (vital compounds in nitric oxide synthesis), Nitroxen?s patent-pending nutrient blend is designed to help increase the amount of amino acids shuttled to muscles where they can be used to build new lean mass.9 The development of Nitroxen will surely lead the industry down new paths in an effort to discover truly novel anabolic compounds.

Insulogen ? : A revolutionary nutrient complex designed specifically to help increase amino acid uptake via insulin-mediated mechanisms without the presence of carbohydrates. Insulogen contains D-myo-inositol and Inzitol ? (D-pinitol) - two nutrients that are taken up by muscle cells which may be specifically incorporated into new phosphatidylinositol glycans.10 An increased level of these glycans may lead to greatly enhanced amino acid uptake by triggering identical routes as those followed by insulin.11 Glucomannan is also added to NITRO-Tech to potentially help increase insulin sensitivity thereby enhancing insulin?s potent anabolic and anticatabolic activities.12 Lastly, the nutrient-partitioning agent alpha lipoic acid (ALA) is also included in the NITRO-Tech formula to help increase insulin?s efficiency by potentiating insulin receptor sensitivity.13 By unlocking the doors to your muscles, Insulogen?s blend of complex nutrients may help force more of SynthePro?s amino acids into your muscles thereby promoting new gains in lean mass.
