Even though young athletes are required to receive health screens to be cleared to play sports, those tests failed to detect important cardiovascular abnormalities in cleared players, and many were allowed to play despite suspicions of dangerous cardiovascular conditions, according to a large registry study of patients who died from sudden death, being presented March 10 by Kevin Harris, MD, research cardiologist at the Minneapolis Heart Institute Foundation (MHIF). The data is being presented at the annual American College of Cardiology Scientific Sessions in San Francisco.

XM3® Sports Drink and Zija® deliver far superior amino acids, naturally occurring in moringa, including all 9 essential ones our bodies do not produce, and are NOT in other food and beverages in sufficient amounts for REAL RESULTS.

Don’t believe me? Ask 5 Time World Heavy Weight Boxing Champion Evander Holyfield as well as World Champion Power Fighter Luke curry, to name but an army of real athletes who KNOW through RESULTS.

Zija® International deals in measurable real RESULTS, not phony journal studies that are basically glorified press releases.

“Invariably the simplest answer tends to be the correct one” Ockham’s Razor. If these so-called protein amino acid that are synthetic, chemically derived, truly worked, then the RESULTS from the brands hyped on the Internet, in magazines and retailers would deliver results, and they do not.

Large muscle animals eat PLANTS! Zija® International deliver the most officious plant known to science, unaltered, with ALL the amino acids you require.

WANT RESULTS?! GET ZIJA®.

~ Uncle Russ

Summary:Two papers, published in the September 2011 issue of The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, report the results of 2 independent studies conducted to understand better how amino acids influence protein synthesis in recreational athletes.

It’s the dangerous neurotoxin fake energy drinks, full of LETHAL anhydrous caffeine, unregulated and stimulant guarana and taurine, vitamin B 6 and 12 from the render intestines of pigs in slaughter house, carcinogenic colors, carcinogenic sweeteners, carcinogenic artificial flavors, preservatives, stabilizers, emulsifiers, and all these combinations also cause birth defects. Combine these fake energy drinks with alcohol and you increase your chances by 66% of DEATH from cardiovascular arrest.

GOT A REAL INITIAL & SUSTAINED ENERGY SPORTS DRINK THAT IS SAFE? GOT XM3®?!

ScienceDaily (Apr. 22, 2011) — When a high school athlete drops dead, the rare but fatal condition called “sudden death syndrome” dominates the headlines. For reasons that remain a mystery to scientists, some young athletes — especially young males — begin to experience an unusual heart arrhythmia. With over-exertion, their hearts stop pumping, leading to sudden death.

Better performance through chemistry…

~ Uncle Russ

Australian researchers have published the results of a study, for the first time showing a positive effect of growth hormone on athletic performance. It showed a .4 second improvement in a 10-second sprint, enough to turn a last-place Olympic athlete in a sprint event – running or swimming – into a Gold medal winner.

Be careful what you wish for.  Anything that can “increase” capacity in muscles, can also increase physical or mental degradation elsewhere…

~ Uncle Russ

ScienceDaily (May 3, 2010) — A study released in Annals of Internal Medicine, the flagship journal of the American College of Physicians (ACP), finds that human growth hormone (HGH) improves sprint capacity in healthy recreational athletes. This is the first trial to demonstrate that HGH improves athletic performance.
