Plant-based protein hydrolysate for optimised muscle protein synthesis
PeptiStrong® is an innovative plant-based protein hydrolysate derived from fava beans. Its unique peptide composition enhances and accelerates muscle protein synthesis even at very low doses (signal proteins). (1, 2)
Essential benefits and main features of PeptiStrong
Increased muscle protein synthesis: PeptiStrong increases the synthesis of muscle proteins, which supports muscle building. Studies have shown that it stimulates muscle protein synthesis to the same extent as whey protein.
Reduction of muscle breakdown: Studies have shown that PeptiStrong is better than casein at preventing the loss of muscle mass. This is particularly important for people who want to maintain or build muscle mass.
Faster recovery after training: PeptiStrong improves muscle strength recovery by 47%, which allows athletes to train more often and more intense.
Lower myostatin levels: Myostatin is a protein that hinders muscle growth. PeptiStrong lowers the myostatin levels in the body, which improves muscle growth and minimises muscle loss.
Plant-based and natural: As PeptiStrong is derived from the fava bean, it is a natural and plant-based alternative to many other protein supplements. It is therefore ideal for a vegan nutrition.
