Antioxidant Formula by Beverly International features an effective anti-oxidant formulation that is ideal for aging adults, especially those who are physically active. When you exercise frequently there is an increase of two muscle enzymes, which include: creatine kinase and lactate dehydrogenase. Normally these enzymes stay in the muscle but when found in the blood, which often occurs after intense training, they indicate muscle damage.
Antioxidants such as Vitamin C, E and beta carotene, when introduced in large doses, cause a reduction of these enzymes very rapidly. So
antioxidants taken in higher than the so-called "RDA values" prevent the normal breakdown of muscle tissue which accompanies strenuous exercise, which is commonly known as the "anticatabolic effect."
Taking anti-oxidant regularly seems to indicate an increased ratio of testosterone vs. cortisol, the ideal effect for increasing lean muscle mass. Another positive side effect is improved capacity for protein synthesis and tissue regeneration following exercise.
