The Ultimate Anabolic Protein

Want Muscle Gains? Forget the Broscience

 

You train hard in the gym, but does your protein work as hard as you do? Whey protein has long been considered the “king” for supporting lean mass and post-exercise recovery. Those who think outside of the box ask the question: “What could be better?” You are always striving to make improvements in the gym; your protein choice should be no different— a better formula will give you better results. That powerful package comes in the form of whey isolates and protein blends in MUSCLE SERUM from Betancourt Nutrition®.

 

Forget the Broscience

MUSCLE SERUM supports recovery and gains with a blend of whey, whey isolate, milk and casein proteins, each with a varying rate of digestion. Forget about broscience and look at the research, which has shown that the combination of whey and casein protein is more effective for supporting lean mass, protein synthesis, muscle growth and recovery than whey alone.

           

Betancourt Nutrition’s goal was to create the ultimate anabolic protein, and MUSCLE SERUM combines whey protein with GABA, BCAAs and enzymes (bromelain and papain) to support lean mass, exercise recovery and protein digestion. The combination of GABA and whey protein has also been shown to support more lean mass in conjunction with exercise than whey protein alone. And MUSCLE SERUM contains more BCAAs per serving than whey protein isolate.

 

Anabolic Protein Blend

MUSCLE SERUM was created by an exercise physiologist-led, in-house lab and manufacturing team inspired by new, cutting-edge discoveries in protein/amino acid combinations for post-exercise. The researchers at Betancourt Nutrition infused MUSCLE SERUM with:

 

• RPM Factors™, a high-protein colostrum concentrate containing immunoglobulins and growth factors that is free of banned substances and supports recovery and performance.

 

• 6.5 grams of BCAAs per serving (2.9g leucine, 1.8g isoleucine, 1.8g valine per serving) to further support the anabolic signaling necessary to promote lean mass and recovery.

 

• Full-disclosure blend of protein (25 grams of protein per serving): whey protein isolate (9 grams of protein), whey protein concentrate (8 grams of protein), milk protein concentrate (4 grams of protein), micellar casein (4 grams of protein).

 

Is Your Protein a Slacker?

If you’re not seeing the gains you’d like to, maybe your current protein is a slacker that is not cutting it for you. It’s like driving your father’s old Dodge that still has manual windows and a cassette player— it’s time for an upgrade. You need something that really gets the job done. When it comes to recovery, protein synthesis and muscle gains, MUSCLE SERUM will take you to a bigger, higher level.
