Catabolism (catabolic metabolism) is a part of the metabolic process that involves the transformation of complex molecules into simple molecules ( the opposite of anabolism ). It is a destructive process .

Catabolic reactions are those that often lead to the breakdown of muscle mass, exhaustion, and insufficient regeneration.

Lack of sleep, increased adrenaline, and increased cortisol levels (excessive stress - physical or psychological) also contribute to increased catabolism.

An example of a catabolic process is the breakdown of proteins into amino acids, the breakdown of glycogen into glucose, or triglycerides into fatty acids, which subsequently leads to unwanted weight loss .

Anti-catabolic Guard

• Ashwagandha – a 10:1 root extract with 5% effective withanolides. A natural adaptogen that helps improve the body's resistance to stress and increase energy levels.
• HMB – a substance from the essential amino acid L-leucine.
• Cordyceps – mycelium extract 4:1. Natural tonic and source of beta-glucans.
• Choline – also known as vitamin B8, a deficiency of which can manifest itself in the form of low energy levels or muscle pain.
• Milk thistle – seed extract – an effective antioxidant.
• L-glutamine – one of the most important amino acids for our body, especially skeletal muscle, kidneys, liver and small intestine.
• L-citrulline – an amino acid that is transformed into arginine and ornithine in the body.
• Zinc picolinate – a mineral that, among other things, contributes to maintaining normal testosterone levels in the blood, proper protein synthesis and protecting cells from oxidative stress.
• Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) – contributes to maintaining proper muscle function.

Our TIP!

A combination with hydrolyzed proteins ( hydrolyzed whey concentrate , beef isolate , hydrolyzed whey isolate, or PeptoPro® Hydrolyzed Casein ), BCAA and Phosphatidylserine - a naturally occurring phospholipid present in all cells - is particularly suitable.
