Twinlab is proud to introduce a breakthrough in meal replacement technology, Nitrate 3 Fuel, a great tasting nutrient replacement powder that combines the best of the latest research with time tested knowledge about protein synthesis and muscle building supplementation. Nitrate 3 Fuel is an anabolic and anti-catabolic potentiator that provides greater nutrient delivery to maximize lean muscle mass by enhancing protein synthesis, decreasing muscle protein breakdown and increasing muscle through the use of Nitric Oxide (NO) and a superior protein/carbohydrate blend.

Whether your goals are short term dieting, or long term muscle gain, this high-end meal replacement combo is designed with over 42 gm of AminoComplex protein blend of whey/caseinate protein, that is designed to inject muscle sparing protein into your muscle tissue quickly and keep serum protein levels elevated for 4-6 hours. Nitrate 3 Fuel also includes 24g of whole grain carbs that are high in fiber and low in sugar and superior essential fats including EPA/DHA to help in recovery, hormonal balance, and tissue repair.

Finally, Nitrate 3 Fuel combines a Nitric oxide (NO) delivery system in the form of 500mg of Arginine AKG to enhance nitric oxide for greater nutrient delivery and the enhanced benefits of (NO) which is the latest highly touted muscle builder from the man who invented creatine!

It All Starts With The Protein

Nitrate 3 Fuel contains a research proven and advanced protein blend that is designed to elevate your serum protein levels and keep them there for proper recovery throughout the day or night. Research suggests that the protein blend in Nitrate 3 Fuel provides heightened and sustained amino acid levels. This amino acid complex is patented and Nitrate 3 Fuel is the only nutrient blend containing AminoComplex protein blend that is proven to optimize and sustain amino acid levels for up to 6 hours.

Complex Carbs and Essential Fat

In addition to containing carbs from complex sources and being high in fiber, Nitrate 3 Fuel also contains no hydrogenated oils, asparatame or inferior carbohydrates to cheapen the product, or make it hard on your digestive system. The carbs found in Nitrate 3 Fuel are whole grain carbs that are high in fiber. In addition, Nitrate 3 Fuel contains superior essential fats that include EPA/DHA. As has been well documented, essential fats have been proven to be a "weak link" in most people's diets and deficiencies in these fats have been linked to everything from imbalanced hormonal levels, to dry skin, slower metabolism, increased fat gain, and decreased lean mass gain.

Last But Not Least, Nitric Oxide (NO)

Twinlab wanted to be on the cutting edge of sports supplementation, and therefore the inclusion of Nitric Oxide potentiators was a must. Nitrate 3 Fuel is the only MRP to utilize the unique Nitric Oxide Delivery System that provides greater nutrient delivery and all the awesome and recently discovered benefits of Nitric Oxide. Nitric Oxide, (NO), was created by the same man who introduced Creatine to the market in 1993 - Ed Byrd, co-founder of EAS. Nitric Oxide, (NO), has created a revolutionary new category of muscle-builders and muscle-enhancers known as "cell-signaling hemodilators". Nitric oxide is the muscle's "cell-signaling" molecule responsible for blood flow (hemodilation), oxygen delivery, glucose uptake, muscle velocity, power output, and muscle growth.

By creating and then sustaining levels of nitric oxide in skeletal muscles you can deliver continuous muscle-enhancing benefits around the clock. These include: amplifying muscle-growth signals for faster gains in lean mass, accelerating both fast and slow twitch muscle fiber for greater strength, providing complete "full-body muscle recovery", and increasing the endurance index. NO is also responsible for the "perpetual pump" whereby muscles remain in their post workout pumped state for sustained periods of time as a result of NO supplementation.

Putting It All Together

As you can see, Twinlab has created quite a product that has never been introduced to the marketplace. Sure there are other comparable meal replacement products out there, with similar nutritional profiles, but none to date contains the patented AminoComplex protein blend of whey/caseinate protein, along with whole grain carbs AND Arginine AKG to enhance nitric oxide for greater nutrient delivery. Delivering all these benefits plus an ample amount of your daily requirements of vitamins/minerals in a great tasting shake, is truly remarkable. Take all the guesswork out of proper supplementation for strength, endurance, weight loss and volume training, with one meal replacement that takes care of all your supplementation needs.
