Valine

Valine is one of the 20 natural amino acids, and is coded for in DNA. Nutritionally, valine is also an essential amino acid.

In sickle-cell disease, it subsitutes for the hydrophilic amino acid glutamic acid in hemoglobin: Because it is hydrophobic, the hemoglobin does not fold correctly.

Valine is uncharged overall, as its R group is neutral, and the charges from its amino and carboxylic acid groups balance out: a zwitterion.

Foods that are good sources of valine include cottage cheese, fish, poultry, beef, peanuts, sesame seeds, and lentils.

New protein technology turning the protein world upside down!
From Muscle & Fitness, 12/1/05

After 4 years of research and development, the Senior Research Staff at MHP has pioneered a major breakthrough in protein supplementation. Their bio-engineered protein, PROBOLIC-SR, has literally set new standards in protein quality, bio-availability and its anabolic and anti-catabolic potential. Protein is an essential element for building muscle tissue, but muscle growth can only occur if your body retains more nitrogen (from protein) than your body loses through the ongoing process of nitrogen-excretion. This creates an anabolic state referred to as "positive nitrogen balance". On the contrary, without an adequate continual supply of protein (nitrogen), your body goes into a catabolic state of "negative nitrogen balance and muscle loss will occur. Bodybuilders and athletes are particularly at risk because heavy exercise leads to increased nitrogen loss and muscle breakdown.

Consuming enough protein to ensure that you remain in a positive nitrogen balance poses many challenges, especially if you don't have the time to eat every 2 to 3 hours. New research shows that even if you are consuming large amounts of protein it still doesn't guarantee you will stay in an anabolic muscle building state of positive nitrogen balance. Researchers have found that all proteins have natural limitations in amino acid composition and the rate in which they release aminos into your bloodstream. These limitations can cause you to slip into a catabolic state of muscle wasting. If you workout and don't eat enough protein throughout the day, you are at an even greater risk of losing your hard earned muscle. This is where the science behind PROBOLIC-SR sets it apart from all other proteins. PROBOLIC-SR is a bio-engineered protein which utilizes two major breakthroughs to overcome protein's natural limitations on nitrogen retention and muscle growth.

Breakthrough #1 'CFAA'S' THE HIGHLY ANABOLIC CRITICAL FIVE AMINO ACIDS

From their extensive research on evaluating protein and muscle tissue for amino acid composition, it was determined that the five most important aminos for muscle growth in response to training are glutamine, arginine and the branched chain amino acids leucine, isoleucine and valine. These amino acids provide the highest anabolic response and are needed to support muscle tissue remodeling in response to heavy training.

In the development of PROBOLIC-SR, MHP's research staff developed a precisely formulated protein matrix of Whey, Supro[R] and Casein to provide high levels of essential amino acids and yield the highest possible levels of Critical Five Amino Acids. To get an even stronger anabolic response, they further enhanced this matrix with even more free form glutamine, arginine, isoleucine, leucine and valine making PROBOLIC-SR by far the most concentrated source of CFAA's.

Breakthrough #2 PATENTED MICRO-FEED TECHNOLOGY--THE 12 HOUR MUSCLE FEEDER!

The patented Micro-Feed Technology is the biggest breakthrough ever in protein supplementation. This pharmaceutical delivery system is designed to provide a continual supply of amino acids for up to 12 hours! The Micro-Feed Technology works like an IV drip continually supplying a "metered dose" of high concentrations of Critical Five Amino Acids so that you always stay in an extremely anabolic muscle building state and never slip into a catabolic state. This technology also increases bio-availability making full 100% utilization of every gram of protein--"NO WASTED PROTEIN--NO WASTED MUSCLE!"

THE BIGGEST BREAKTHROUGH EVER IN PROTEIN--

* Feeds Muscle Tissue for 12 Hours

* Increases Anabolic Effects

* Prevents Catabolic Muscle Wasting

* Improves Protein's Bio-availability

* Highest levels of the Critical Five Amino Acids

PROBOLIC-SR is the only protein in existence to provide a 4-stage delivery, making it the ideal anytime protein. The precisely formulated blend of proteins provides a fast, medium, and slow release of the Critical Five Aminos and is further prolonged with the patented Micro-Feed Technology! PROBOLIC-SR will ensure you never slip into catabolism between meals, during workouts or during the night while you sleep and always keep you in a "positive nitrogen balance" and anabolic overdrive!
