Helps build muscle: Whey proteins are considered “complete proteins” as they are among the richest sources of essential amino acids that are easily digested and quickly absorbed and get directly incorporated into muscle protein synthesis. Quista Pro is power packed with a whey protein blend (WPC, WPI, andWPH), which is naturally rich in BCAAs that contribute to complete muscle care during a muscle-building regimen and aid in muscle recovery after workouts. The BCAAs namely valine, leucine, and isoleucine serve as important sources of energy for the muscles during exercise. BCAA supplementation is said to promote anabolic pathways that help in muscle synthesis, inhibit degradation of muscle proteins during exercise, and attenuate fatigue during exercise. WPH contains a pool of “whey peptides” known to boost intra-exercise performance and recovery after workouts. Withania somnifera is a well-known adaptogen. It helps build muscle mass and strength by balancing the cortisol level, which is usually high during stress. Vitamin B complex (thiamine, pyridoxine, and pantothenic acid) and vitamins E and C are known to improve muscle performance. 2. Helps develop stamina and endurance: Withania somnifera is reported to improve muscular strength, coordination, and cardiorespiratory endurance. In a study, supplementation with Withania somnifera significantly improved the time to exhaustion, thus, indicating the herb’s antifatigue action. Research also suggests that Withania somnifera controls the increase in blood urea nitrogen, lactic acid, and corticosterone levels in response to stress and reduces the tendency of dopamine receptors in the brain getting activated under stress. Withania somnifera is also known to help enhance the aerobic capacity by improving the RBC count, which in turn leads to an increase in the oxygen transport directly to the exercising muscles. Vitamin B complex also helps produce energy. 3. Helps maintain bone health: Cissus quadrangularis is a well-known herb for bone and joint health. It promotes the recovery of injured connective tissue and relieves joint pain through its anti-inflammatory action. Calcium helps maintain bone health. It is also important for muscle contraction and relaxation through actomyosin action. Quista® PRO
