Nutrition for Athletes: Bottom LineBy Michael Colgan, Ph.D.
Your blood cells replace themselves every three to four months. Your muscle cells replace themselves about every six months. Brain cells can take a year or more to replace themselves. Right when each of these types of cells are formed, they use the nutrition the person is giving their body at that time. In other words, the cells are limited in function for their whole lifetime by the nutrition they receive when they are formed. If you eat garbage proteins, you cannot help but grow a garbage body. And you are stuck with that body for the next six months. |

Triathletes Gain Competitive Edge with Isagenix
A pilot trial finds Isagenix helps triathletes maintain top condition to face unique challenges of running, cycling, and swimming. Training as a competitive triathlete is demanding.

Now, preliminary research suggests Isagenix products could assist triathletes in achieving a competitive edge. |
