Density is for everyone not only for Advanced bodybuilders. We all spend hours in the gym and trying to follow a strict diet in order to achieve the look of muscle density. But Supplements Powered by A-Z Nutrition and Beverly International Nutrition are here to help you and give you the feeling of accomplishment that you can only get from Density. Density by Beverly International is the only amino acid formula with the 5 properties listed in this article, properties that are essential if you want to see measurable increases in muscle density from such a product. 5 Reasons Advanced Bodybuilders Love Density # High Anabolic Efficiency # Laboratory-Tested, Pharmaceutical Grade # Contains L-tryptophan # No digestion required # Provides the Missing Anabolic Link 1.High Anabolic Efficiency: When your muscles are thick, lean and hard you have the look of muscle density. Everyone wants muscle density but look around how many of us actually have it? Achieving muscle density requires increasing the protein content of your muscle cells, which in turn requires stimulating protein synthesis well above normal on a consistent basis (refer to The Density Cycle diagram). All other things held constant, the more protein your muscle cells contain per unit of volume, the thicker, leaner and harder your muscles will appear. Anabolic Efficiency (AE) may be a new term for many readers. AE refers to the ability of a nutritional supplement to stimulate protein synthesis per unit mass (e.g. gram) of it that is ingested. As you might expect, advanced bodybuilders need high-AE supplements. A combination of highly purified essential amino acids such as occurs in the nutritional supplement Density can support a higher AE than may be found with proteins when consumed before and after resistance exercise (i.e. pre- and post-training). This promotes the increases in muscle cell protein content that you need to achieve the look of muscle density. 2. Laboratory-Tested, Pharmaceutical Grade: Advanced bodybuilders take comfort in the fact that Density is a pharmaceutical-grade amino acid formula capable of supporting a high AE. This has been confirmed by independent laboratory testing. Other products on the market have been tested and found to contain animal grade amino acids. Animal grade is the lowest grade on the market, unsuitable for use by scientists engaged in research and development, let alone advanced bodybuilders seeking measurable increases in muscle density. When 6 amino acid formulas on the market where tested, 5 of them were found to be of animal grade. These disappointing test results suggest that unless you choose a proven formula, the odds of you experiencing satisfying results are poor. 3. Contains L-tryptophan: Each serving of Density supplies 8 dietarily essential and 10 dietarily non-essential amino acids*, including L-tryptophan. L-tryptophan is an essential amino acid and is required for protein synthesis as well as the synthesis of niacin and serotonin. When an amino acid formula lacks L-tryptophan it will have a much lower AE. Advanced bodybuilders cannot expect visible muscle building results from using it. Laboratory tests performed on Density reveal that its L-tryptophan is highly purified, pharmaceutical grade material. Other products were tested and found to contain numerous impurities. Impurities may render an amino acid formula ineffective or, worse still, unsafe. As one supplement formulator with years of industry experience recently stated ¡°the lack of [pharmaceutical-grade] L-tryptophan [in other formulas] makes them a joke.¡± 4. No digestion required: When you eat a meal, the protein that it provides is digested (i.e. broken down) into its component amino acids in your gastrointestinal tract. This can take up to several hours. In contrast, the Density formula requires no digestion: Its amino acids can be absorbed and utilized instantly. 5. Provides the Missing Anabolic Link: Every meal you eat is characterized by a unique amino acid profile. This refers to the types and quantities of amino acids present in the meal. Some amino acid profiles are better suited for advanced bodybuilding needs than are others. For instance, occasionally a meal may be too low in one or more amino acids to support optimal rates of muscle protein synthesis. This produces a ¡°missing anabolic link¡± that can slow down your muscle gains. Density s pharmaceutical-grade amino acid profile includes more than enough of each amino acid to address your metabolic needs. Thus by taking it along with your meals you can ensure that they provide the most complete amino acid profile possible. You¡¯ll never be too low in any one or more amino acids. Anabolism can proceed uninterrupted. Of course, what makes Density such a powerful complement to your meals also renders it 100% effective as a stand-alone supplement: Density can be ingested in between meals to top off your circulating (blood) and tissue (e.g. muscle) amino acid levels. This is a widely used practice of advanced bodybuilders.
