āWe want to return consumers to their active lifestyles faster, by speeding up recovery and abating muscle soreness. While the advantages of physical activity are clear, OptiMSM can support joint, muscle and overall health if any discomfort results,ā said Tim Hammond, director of sales and strategic relations for Bergstrom Nutrition. āWe thank the innovative team at Glanbia for their invaluable assistance in the development of this functional protein powder.ā
Bergstrom Nutrition, producer of OptiMSMāthe worldās only GRAS-designated proprietary and patented MSM (methylsulfonylmethane)āinitiated human studies to evaluate the potential benefits of OptiMSM on exercise recovery and performance. These results, recently published in the Journal of the International Society of Sports Nutrition, support MSMās positive effects on exercise recovery.Ā These benefits are further supported by two recently published exercise recovery studies on MSMās efficacy in healthy adult males.
āResearch is indicating a trend toward reduction in muscle soreness, significant increase in Trolox Equivalent Antioxidant Capacity (TEAC), increased plasma antioxidant capacity and subsequent decrease in muscle damage when supplementing with MSM,ā said Rod Benjamin, director of technical development for Bergstrom Nutrition. āThese benefits combined with Glanbiaās PepFormĀ®āwhich offers shortened recovery time and improvedĀ delivery and utilization of amino acidsāprovided us with a perfect vehicle to highlight OptiMSMās effect on exercise recovery. ā
Samples of the prototype will be available at the Bergstrom Nutrition/OptiMSM SSW Booth 19017 and the Glanbia Nutritionals SSW Booth 20055.
