What the Athletes are Saying About Taking Immunocal Platinum (purchase 20% off) 

 
 Morgan Chaffin

 

"I have been taking Immunocal Platinum, which is a powder based supplement used to maintain optimal muscle function, kidney function, bone health, and a strong immune system.  I started taking this about a month and half before my surgery and believe it may also help me recover faster.  The company has published valuable research on this product in the Journal of Applied Physiology. More to come on this as it helps with my recovery."

She goes on to say...

"Immunocal Platinum is a product made by Immunotec and is designed to help maintain a strong immune system, bone health, and increase muscular function. Team Snapple athletes as well as cyclists, skiers, wheelchair athletes, and boxers are utilizing immunocal platinum as a legal supplement to help maintain performance and supply adequate nutrition to their bodies. Immunocal platinum is a natural product containing whey protein, creatine, potassium, calcium, and magnesium. The whey protein found in immunocal platinum is not the typical protein powder found in the majority of store purchased supplements. It contains cysteine, which allows the body to produce glutathione. Glutathione is an antioxidant, preventing damage to important cellular components caused by reactive oxygen species that can have significant damage to cellular structures. 

The four areas Immunocal can impact athletic performance are: immune function, recovery, performance, and muscular development.

IMMUNE FUNCTION: Maintaining optimal levels of glutathione in the immune cell will reduce the frequency of colds and the flu permitting the athlete to optimize training. 

RECOVERY: Increased glutathione stores in the muscle cell will help mediate muscle damage generated by oxidative stress as muscle soreness and muscle cell permeability have been linked to oxidative stress.

PERFORMANCE: The effect of Immunocal on muscular performance was researched by Dr. Lands at the Montreal Children’s Hospital in Montreal (Effect of supplementation with a cysteine donor on muscular performance (1999) and published in The Journal of Applied Physiology).  Twenty healthy young adults (10 men, 10 women) were studied pre-supplementation and 3 months post-supplementation with either Immunocal or placebo.  Muscular performance was assessed by whole leg isokinetic cycle testing, measuring peak power and 30 second work capacity. There were no baseline differences in the subjects. Both peak power (P <0.02) and 30 second work capacity (P <0.03) increased significantly in the Immunocal group, with no change in the placebo group.  Lymphocyte GSH also increased significantly in the Immunocal group (P <0.02), with no change in the placebo group. This was the first study to demonstrate that prolonged supplementation with a product designed to augment antioxidant defenses resulted in improved performance.

MUSCULAR DEVELOPMENT - Subjects on Immunocal had a 6 % increase in lean muscle mass and a corresponding decrease in the percentage of body fat.

Additionally, Snapple Triathletes consume E-motion Energy Shots, which provide extended energy and mental focus! The energy shots contain: Ginseng, Guarana, Aceloa (herbal stimulants), Maqui Berry (natural antioxidant), Vitamins B & C (extend energy), and amino acids (mental focus)."

"I have been taking the products for a while now and last Sunday I did 2 bikes races about one hour apart. I started off the morning with a gel before the first race. I won the race from the gun. Right before the 2nd race I took my Emotion Energy Shot  ( this stuff is like red bull X 10, coming from someone that drinks lots of caffeine !  l got my 2nd win again from the front, pushing the pace and breaking with 3k to go. Both races were intense and 35min crit style. Afterwards I took my Immunocal Platinum and did a swim in the evening  and full training  load the next day and felt great. I'm excited about using the products in the Longer races. "

On the upcoming 2011 race season, Racing for Team Snapple with Immunotec Sponsorship.

"Since taking Immunocal Platinum, I have noticed an increased frequency to be able to up the intensity of training and train harder more often. Therefore, I have noticed improvement in the athletic performance on race day. It allows me to respond well to the physical demands of multi-sport training without any setbacks. I am excited to race and train with Immunocal's new products for this year and in the future." - Lucas McCullom

 

Here is what he has to say about last years race season while on Immunocal, in connection with back to back races 9 weeks in a row.

 "Since taking Immunocal Platinum, I have been able to train harder, more frequently and recover faster after races. Immunocal Platinum allows me to train and race at the highest level I am capable of." - Lucas McCullom
Columbia Triathlon Race Report May 25th
"The Columbia Triathlon has been on my race schedule the past 3 years.  It is a very popular race nationwide that attracts some of the top Professional, Elite Amatuer, and Age Group athletes in the world.  And best of all, it is right here in my backyard in the state of Maryland.  It is also the qualifying race for the Best Of The US national championship."

May 25th 2011 MIM Race report, Reunion in the blues city

"Race morning arrived and we headed over to get set up.  I was so happy to arrive without illness, as my 3 girls and husband had all had strep throat and a nasty productive cough in the last 3 weeks leading up to this trip.  I faithfully drank my Immunocal daily and really believe it helped keep me healthy.  I certainly couldn’t rely on getting plenty of sleep while taking care of the 4 of them!  My start time was about an hour after everyone I was with, so I meandered around after transition area closed and chatted some more.  Everyone seemed to notice at once the black skies heading our way. Lots of lightening and some..." (continue reading)

Ironman St. George May 15th Race Report

"How could I race my first IM without this gem?

“Don’t leave your urine stained shoes in your car after the race.”

Thanks Chip.

The swim in St. George is beautiful—A massive reservoir in the middle of the Red Rocks, with a single loop around a central rock island.  The water was cold, but not like the horror stories from last year. I wore my Xterra Vendetta and a neo cap.

After 8 months of pre-race prep, the cannon fired and the race was on.  The start of the swim sucked.  You see the pictures of the advancing mass of humanity cutting through placid water in a flying V.  It looks smooth and peaceful from the aerial view, but the camera lens is missing the carnage of neoprene-clad limbs pushing, pulling, scratching, and fighting.  My arms were grabbed on my stroke.  My legs were pushed and pulled.  I took a hard kick to the temple that dislodged my goggles.  In the early chaos, I couldn’t stop to put them back on, so I swam the first 200 or 300 yards with murky ice water held in place by my goggles over my eyeballs.

Things settled in, and the swim was pretty uneventful.  The mass start might be chaos, but at least once things sort out..." (continue reading)
