Olimp Iso Plus® Powder is an isotonic drink concentrate designed to replenish water, electrolytes, vitamins, minerals and carbohydrates lost during training. The product has been enriched with L-carnitine, which supports the extraction of energy from fat and effective fat burning. The advantage of the product is its attractive taste and high performance.
L-carnitine is a natural vitamin-like substance, present mainly in skeletal and cardiac muscle cells. It conditions the transport of long-chain fatty acids formed by the breakdown of fats across the membrane to the mitochondrial matrix, where they undergo the process of β-oxidation ("burning"). The products of β-oxidation serve as substrates for further metabolic transformations, resulting in the formation of ATP, which leads to increased energy levels and has a beneficial effect on training parameters.
During intense exercise, the demand for L-carnitine increases and exceeds the body's ability to synthesize it. Therefore, especially during prolonged endurance training, it is necessary to replenish L-carnitine through proper supplementation.
Carbohydrates (mono-, di-, polysaccharides) prevent drops in blood sugar levels during training and enable the restoration of muscle glycogen stores, whose reserves decrease during exercise due to the release of glucose. Depletion of glycogen reserves manifests itself as a feeling of fatigue and a drop in energy levels, resulting in an inability to continue training.
Minerals (potassium, calcium, magnesium) enable optimal hydration of cells. Electrolytes, along with carbohydrates, are essential for the absorption of energy components, glycogen regeneration and proper muscle function - muscle fiber contraction and energy production.
Minerals are involved in the processes of thermoregulation and the proper work of the nervous system. When sweating, in addition to water, the body also loses valuable electrolytes. Intense training increases the need for minerals, even though there is no sweating.
B vitamins are essential for the proper functioning of the nervous system and optimal metabolism of nutrients - proteins, fats and carbohydrates. They primarily perform enzymatic functions. They normalize cholesterol levels, regulate blood glucose levels and participate in ATP production. They affect mental performance. B vitamins are water-soluble compounds - any excess is excreted in the urine, hence they should be regularly supplied to the body.
Antioxidant vitamins (A, C and E) protect the body from excess free oxygen radicals and lipid peroxides, increasing the antioxidant potential of the system. Excess free radicals affect faster aging of the body, damage cellular structures and promote the development of atherosclerotic lesions. Antioxidants strengthen and improve the elasticity of blood vessels and promote adequate oxygenation of cells. They are an important part of daily health-promoting prevention.
Vitamin D is essential for the proper functioning of the skeletal system and the process of bone mineralization. It manages the calcium-phosphate economy, increasing the absorption of calcium, whose compounds are the basic building blocks of bones. In addition, it exhibits immunomodulatory and anti-inflammatory properties and has a positive effect on muscle function and regeneration.
In summary, Olimp Iso Plus® Powder is an effective replenishment of lost electrolytes and carbohydrates, support of post-workout regeneration and optimal hydration of the body. The product is recommended for athletes, especially for prolonged exertion and endurance sports, physically active people and people doing physical labor.
