Visalus: Current Survival Food
Been getting some questions about Visalus and its use as a bugout meal replacement. Id say take a read here and check it out.
Question:I heard that the shake, was designed for the military soldiers for nutrition while in the field. Also I have a gentleman in Gainesville, Fl. He is a fitness trainer and helps athletes prepare, say for the NFL. He wants to know more about the building muscle part of what the shake, Tri-Sorb protein.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Answer From: Audrey Sommerfeld (SVP)While the shake may be useful for military soldiers, it was not designed 'for' them. When Dr. Witherly and I (Audrey Sommerfeld (SVP)) created the shake, we wanted to create the perfect 'meal' to help people build and maintain lean muscle, burn fat, and feel healthier.The Tri-Sorb protein blend is a unique blend of highly absorbable proteins. First we use non-GMO soy that has been processed to remove isoflavones that can impact estrogen. Why soy? It is a complete protein, easily digested, and adequate consumption can help the body reduce cholesterol and c-reactive protein. Studies show that soy can build lean muscle as good, and in some studies better than whey proteins.We then use a whey concentrate, and the newest technology in whey hydrolysate. This is the most concentrated and 'clean' protein on the market today, and is very expensive. The key reason is it builds lean muscle. The FDA allows it to be called a 'fat loss accelerant' as a result, the only protein that can use that claim. Our proteins have been specially processed to remove fat, lactose, and carbs.We add in the Aminogen, a patented and clinically tested amino acid to aide protein absorption. Many body builders buy this product in nutrition stores to aid their body. We include it.The key is that not all proteins are created equal. If you read the nutritional labels, some will use gelatin to 'spike' the grams of protein, great for skin and hair, but not so good at building muscle. Some use milk powder or milk protein, great for bone health, but not so good at building lean muscle. Some use whey, which is ok, but only about 75-80% absorbed. So with ours, its quality, not quantity...and we absorb more because of our blend.Audrey
I have been on this product for about 4 months now. lost 30 lbs, and am continuing to build Muscle. I have used it in a bugout test and Its results were acceptable for use on a bugout. Like I said Previously I am not terribly happy with needing to use my water supply to mix it. but In the desert it also ensures that I am taking in some water, even while rationing.
