Whey protein lessens risk factors for metabolic diseases

Unfortunately, Obesity and type 2 diabetes  have both become more common worldwide, and especially in the United States. and recently, related diseases have been considered epidemic. Obviously, both can be prevented through exercise and proper diet, and supplementing with whey protein  has become a popular strategy for preventing these issues. A recent study tells us that this is due to whey protein having a positive effect on glucose metabolism in healthy, overweight, obese, and insulin-resistant subjects.  It also influences a number of gut hormones related to the reduction of food intake and satiety, while also producing reductions of expression of both inflammatory and oxidative stress markers, and reducing blood pressure.

Mike Hebe, a diabetic athlete who uses 3Fu3l wrote to us and said:

I am a Type insulin dependent diabetic I rely on basal and bolus insulin 1 injections to get fuel to my muscles I do not use a pump nor do I have the advantage of a functioning pancreas Therefore my race nutrition has to be thought out a little more in depth than the average athlete . I have been racing for twenty five years I have tried most sports drinks and nutritional products so I feel i have a pretty good knowledge and experience base .

I started training with 3Fu3l in preperation for USA Triathlon Long Course National Championships. In training I noticed a few things: First the taste is very good, I never got sick of it, I never had the searing cramps in my legs due to too much glucose which can ultimately lead to a change in blood ph. Most importantly fuel did not upset my stomach while giving me good, steady fueling While racing at the Rev triathlon half Ironamn…3Fu3l did not let me down… At Long Course Nats I used fuel again exclusively for the first ninety minutes of the bike and supplemented with on course nutrtion for the last forty five The ride was once again extremely good I went from mid fifties to 6th overall after the swim to starting the run and finishing top ten overall as a 45 year old.

3fu3l did what it was supposed to do. I personally feel that fuel s best application in multisoprt would be for Ironman distance events as then you are not going as hard but for much longer I will not hesitate to keep using 3Fu3l for my long duration events I believe in the product both conceptually and in practice.
