BSN Syntha 6

Syntha-6 2.27kg is a protein supplement manufactured by BSN that consists of six different protein sources to ensure a slow absorption of amino acids and prevent protein breakdown during times when the metabolism cannot be supplied with nutrients. The special blend of this product includes milk protein, serum protein and albumins, which provide a complete amino acid profile to stimulate protein synthesis.

This product is based on the scientific principle that the formation of new muscle proteins can only occur when amino acid levels are optimal. Several studies have shown that the absence or malnutrition of at least one essential amino acid can significantly inhibit myogenesis, i.e. the synthesis and maintenance of muscle fibres.

To increase muscle mass, it is important to maintain a positive nitrogen balance, which means that the amount of nitrogen that is stored and utilised must be greater than the amount that is lost. Whilst this is manageable during meals, it becomes more challenging overnight or in situations where eating is not possible.

To maintain this positive balance, supplements such as Syntha-6 are produced. This product contains rapidly absorbable protein sources, such as whey protein concentrate, as well as medium absorption rate sources, such as caseins, and slowly absorbable sources, such as albumin. Taking this supplement helps prevent the metabolism from breaking down tissue that accumulates protein material in the absence of other nutrients and avoids the protein breakdown that gets in the way of your goals.
