Can You Handle Protein?
WE'RE GOING TO DISCUSS NUTRITIONAL HEALTH AS RELATES TO AMINO ACIDS, AND AMINO ACIDS PROTEIN SUBSTITUTES.
Amino acids, the building blocks of protein, are obtained from food. We eat protein for its amino acids content. Food protein, however, must be ingested, then digested and then broken down (matabolized) to extract its amino content. And that's often the problem.
WHAT IS IT?
An Amino Acids Protein Subsitute
And the problem for many of us who, because of age, illness, eating preferences or digestive disorders, is that we cannot utilize protein from food very well. Pre-digested SON Formula/MAP is the solution.
Food protein digestion and metabolism put a load on the kidneys and liver because food protein when broken down produces a lot of waste. The amount of waste, depending on the protein source, can be as little as 52% of what's eaten and as much as 82%.
If you eat a whole egg, for example, 48% of its protein content can be utilized for its amino acids. The remaining 52% is metabolic waste that has to be excreted by the kidneys, liver and intestines. Eggs are Nature's best protein source (don't believe the guff about cholesterol, it simply isn't true).
TOO OLD TO PUMP IRON?
Never Too Old!
Who Says So!NO WAY!
Use SON Formula/MAP to achieve nutritional health, strength and weight control.
Nature's Master Amino(acids) Pattern will provide the 8 essential amino acids needed for muscle mass enhancement, and available to the body within 23 minutes, it is 99% utilizied, meaning it's easy on the liver and kidneys.
Food protein and protein supps. produce 52 - 82% metabolic waste that must pass through these organs. And if you're older, protein metabolism is more difficult because of reduced function in these organs. Use SONFormula/MAP for best results.

LIVER HEALTH
Play It Safe
As we age, Liver and Kidney function decline and digestion becomes more difficult, especially digestion of dietary protein. The Modern North American diet overloads these organs with "Junk": processed foods, trans fats, polyunsaturated vegetable oils, animal fat, excess alcohol, and the list goes on.
[Refs, Dr. Sandra Cabot, The Liver Cleansing Diet ISBN 0-646-27789-8; Andreas Moritz, The Amazing Liver and Gallbladder Cleanse ISBN 0-9546590-0-7.]
The Liver's function is not limited to elimination of waste (it's a major detoxifier); it also performs many metabolic and regulatory functions: it regulates Carbohydrate metabolism; it stores glycogen (used for energy), and Vits. A & D & many B's (incldg. B12), iron & copper; it regulates Protein metabolsim (Cabot, p.40).
Digestion and Metabolism of dietary protein (DP) is what concerns us here. You need dietary protein for one reason: to obtain the eight essential amino acids your body cannot make (it makes about 15 others)[ref. Eric R. Braverman, The Healing Nutrients Within ISBN 1-59120-037-7].
Like any food, DP must be digested and then metabolized for use; this process extracts the essential amino acids the body needs to create and regenerate its own tissue (metabolism is the biochemical modification of compounds inside the body & its cells through a process of building - anabolism- and breakdown - catabolism - of complex molecules).
Digestion and metabolism of DP produce a lot of waste by-product in the form of un-utilized nitrogen (protein is made of hydrogen, oxygen & nitrogen), and it is because of nitrogen that protein is able to repair & build new tissue. The more nitrogen that is useable from protein, the more the body benefits.
Nitrogen is lost during protein metabolism, (in urine, feces, skin, hair, nails, semen & menses); thus, proper protein metabolism requires a balance between nitrogen excreted and nitrogen assimilated (Braverman, p.4). Since metabolism of DP produces more waste than useable product, this process puts stress on the organs that regulate assimilation & excretion.
These organs are the Liver & the Kidneys. Because of aging, by approx. age 70 we may have only 30% functionality for protein metabolism. You need an amino acids protein substitute to stay healthy.

Thanks for all the info. I now understand how protein works in the body. Have been using MAP for several years and have noticed a definite improvement in strength. Great product.

CREATINE is an amino acid that is more valuable to the elderly than to others who are younger. It puts back water into dehydrated muscle cells and this is needed by aging muscles. Body Builders who use it will have fluid inflated muscles but not improved strength. Use it if you are 60 . Posted May 02, 2007 |

What is an Amino Acid?
Hydrogen, oxygen, Carbon and Nitrogen
The Liver produces about 60% of the amino acids needed by the body, which leaves 40% to be supplied by diet, the Essential Amino Acids. Some of the non-essential aminos made by the body can in some cases be conditionally essential (for example, Histidine, Tyrosine and Taurine are conditionally essential during early growth), cases of disease or stress.
How Much?
The starkest example of the body's need of protein can be seen in starvation cases (distended bellies, atrophied muscles, mental retardation), which cases prove the vital importance of protein and amino acids.
There is no standard measure of the daily requirement for protein. To determine the need for essential amino acids requires determing how much protein we need. Minimun requirements would be the sum of all essential aminos, plus sufficient Nitrogen for protein metabolism and synthesis. The body excretes nitrogen in the metabolism of protein and bodily discharges as well as in the hair and nails; protein metabolism (break down & assimilation)requires a balance between nitrogen excreted and nitrogen assimilated (the balance in MAP/SON is 1:99).
WHO recommends 3 - 4 g. per kilo of body weight per day (30 - 40 g for an adult man of 150 lbs.). But this measure is not self-explanatory: it assumes the protein is of the highest quality, containing all or most of the essential amino acids. Deficiencies of Vitamins and Minerals, especially vitamin C and B6 important to the absorption & delivery of amino acids can also contribute to deficiencies of essential amino acids.
Amino Acids should be consumed everyday. In fact, one writer states that Protein should be included in every meal, including snacks [Perricone]. This makes sense: protein provides power for regeneration & repair. Deficiencies in essential amino acids lead eventually to disease or death. Animal protein is considered "high quality" because it contains all the essential amino acids, plus some non-essential ones [Braverman]. But, eating a Variety of different vegetable & fruits can also provide all the essential aminos; one obviously has to select for amino acids content.
The whole hen's egg comes closest.
