Extreme Labs has taken protein to the next level. Up until now proteins were virtually al the same, each one claiming to be the best ever, or most perfect. They often attempt to prove this by using test results based on P.E.R. (Protein Efficiency Ratio) or, B.V. (Biological Value). Neither of these methods of testing are F.D.A. (Food and Drug Administration) required methods to determine protein quality. The recent published F.D.A. Nutrition labeling regulations make P.D.C.A.A.S. (Protein Digestibility Corrected Amino Acid Score) the method for measuring the overall quality of protein. P.D.C.A.A.S. differ from P.E.R and most B.V. evaluations because it is based on actual human amino acid requirements.
There are nine amino acids which your body cannot synthesize (produce). These are referred to as the E.A.A's (Essential Amino Acids). The only way to provide your body with enough E.A.A's is by eating or drinking them. This is the reason why the F.D.A uses P.D.C.A.A.s. scoring. The score can range from 0.00 (lowest possible) to 1.00 (perfect score). In order to score high, all essential amino acids must be present n the F.D.A. required amounts and must be extremely digestible. Lean mass scores 1.00 (perfect score on the F.D.A. required P.D.C.A.A.S. method. This is the highest obtainable score! Can your protein say this? If another protein claims to be better, it can't be, Lean Mass is simply the best! No protein can have a P.D.C.A.A.S score higher than 1.00!
Many companies try to make proteins digest quicker, eliminating or scissoring B.C.A.A.'s (branched chain amino acids.) This means their formulas have to be taken in small quantities several times daily. Lean mass eliminates this inconvenience by having a very complete amino acid profile. Both long and short and also branched chain amino acids are present to give you many hours of protein utilization! Lean Mass contains proteins from four protein sources. These are ion exchanged whey, egg (Albumen), milk (caseins) and 10% soy (soy isolate). The advantage of having so many sources is that they provide the adequate amounts of amino acids needed for maximum growth some companies claim to have as many as fifty (50) sources of protein. There are only so many amino acids therefore; there is no advantage of having that many protein sources. This is why Lean Mass is simply the best protein money can buy, at any price!
