Pro-PCA Fuel, provided by Douglas Laboratories®, is a revolutionary new sports nutraceutical formulation created to mitigate the health and performance damaging factors that result from vigorous exercise. Pro-PCA Fuel is unique in the sports performance market because it is the first product that provides a dosage schedule for the nutrient fueling needs of three classes of athletes based on their physical size. In addition, it also targets nutrient fueling proactively by administering the dosage during the three distinct phases of the training cycle: 1. Pre-Exercise (nutrient loading). 2. The Training Session (continued nutrient fueling). 3. Post Exercise Recovery (critical for every athlete). Pro-PCA Fuel contains a performance specific blend of high quality whey protein isolates and concentrate, high glycemic index carbohydrates (maltodextrin), and a rich supply of micronutrients that focus on the antioxidant factors needed to defend the athlete from the damaging effects of exercise. The formula also contains an acid buffering system to mitigate the destructive effects of acids formed during training. Dr. Jeffery Skee, who designed this product exclusively for Douglas Laboratories, has presented evidence of eight damaging effects of vigorous exercise which he has termed “Exercise Induced Pathology (EIP),” a new sports performance disease. EIP includes the following factors: 1. Free radicals (destructive to all tissues in the body). 2. Acids (Disrupt the energy chain and directly damage tissue). 3. Ammonia (Headaches, blurred vision and cellular damage). 4. Inflammation (CRP–one chemical marker for heart disease). 5. Thermogenics (Heat kills athletic performance). 6. Direct cellular damage (Hemolysis of muscle & blood cells). 7. Hormonal disruption (Catabolic hormones liquefy muscles). 8. Chemical toxicity (Increased free radical damage, particularly to the heart).
