The details
Cross-referenced with PubMed & Examine.com
Collagen peptides studied for joint comfort; several trials report less activity-related joint pain at around 5g a day, though effects are modest. As a protein for muscle repair, collagen is incomplete (it lacks tryptophan) and less effective than whey.
The amino acid that most strongly switches on muscle protein building; about 2–3g per meal, usually from protein, is enough.
A branched-chain amino acid; it adds little on top of an adequate protein intake.
A branched-chain amino acid; it adds little on top of an adequate protein intake.
A single glucose-type carb absorbs at up to ~60g/hr; above that, pair it with a fructose source.
Magnesium supports muscle and nerve function and sleep; many athletes fall short of the recommended intake. Supplementing helps mainly when intake is low. Glycinate and malate forms are well absorbed and gentle on the stomach.
Supports immune function and acts as an antioxidant; moderate doses may reduce colds during heavy training, while very high doses may blunt training adaptations.
