Overcome Heat and Fatigue with StamoPlex

Overcome Heat and Fatigue with StamoPlex

StamoPlex is the "Electrolyte Stamina Power Pill" to overcome the draining power of the hot sun. It gives you a full-spectrum of electrolytes (potassium, magnesium, chloride and sodium), enhanced with special phosphate salts, vitamin C and B vitamins, minerals and trace minerals. Athletes actually feel the difference with StamoPlex. After just three days, athletes notice an ability to breathe easier, perform longer in the heat, and recovery faster from practices, workouts and competition. The difference is StamoPlex replaces more than just electrolytes and salt, it combines three different phosphate compounds to help buffer lactic acid, increase and restore ATP production and increase aerobic capacity.

Buffer Lactic Acid                                    
One of phosphates basic benefits is its ability to buffer lactic acid. Lactic acid forms around muscle after moderate exercise. This gives your muscles that stiff soreness you feel after physical activity. By buffering this acid, phosphate diminishes this ill feeling and lets your players stay active without this pitfall.

Restore ATP Production
ATP (Adenosine Tri-Phosphate) must be formed to provide energy for your muscles to do work. Supplemental phosphate increases the body's formation of ATP, which in turn lets your player's muscles work longer without tiring.

Increase Aerobic Capacity
StamoPlex™ is designed to help raise VO2 Max and VAT. VO2 Max is a measure of maximal oxygen consumption. VAT is the ventilary breakpoint that is reached when the breathing rate is increased due to the body's production of CO2. Increasing these measures helps your players go harder for a longer period of time.

It is important to remember that each player's electrolyte and phosphate expenditure varies tremendously between individuals. The specific electrolyte requirements will not only differ from another athlete's, but will also change constantly, depending on your fitness level, acclimatization level, and training duration and intensity. In fact, your electrolyte requirements may change during the course of the same practice or workout, if only due to changes in the weather.

By providing potassium with the phosphate salts, StamoPlex is one of the only heat protection products to meet the requirements for easy intestinal absorption and muscle assimilation. In particular, the level of potassium is important due to its ability to facilitate the cellular sodium pump, which moves nutrients in and out of the cell membrane. The ratio in StamoPlex is especially designed with this in mind. In doing this, StamoPlex is an ideal supplement for those with calcium deficiencies or for those with specific hormonal imbalances. In fact, doctors have been known to recommend this supplement to patients with these conditions.

NEED TO REPLACE WHAT YOU SWEAT OUT

Hot weather increases the need for certain minerals (Harris, 1992). This is due to increased sweating and urination resulting in more minerals being excreted. High temperatures and humidity stress the body's ability to cool itself, through the loss of body fluids and necessary minerals. Consequently, dietary mineral concentrations should be adjusted before the onset of practicing in the heat so that the minerals are present when needed.

Mineral needs for athletes change during hot weather. Heavy sweating removes salt and minerals from the body. These are necessary for your body and must be replaced. Athletes sweat more than most people. Their sweat contains a large amount of minerals, so the ratio or balance of potassium (K), sodium (Na), and chloride (Cl) may affect performance of the player during hot and humid weather. In addition, athletes may need more magnesium during hot weather. StamoPlex provides a full-spectrum of heat-depleted minerals, enhanced with special phosphate salts, vitamin C and B vitamins.

Magnesium
Many people consuming the typical "Western" diet do not get the RDA for magnesium from their foods, and may be at risk for marginal deficiency. Athletes are at an even greater risk because they lose a lot of magnesium in sweat.

Normal heart rhythm, healthy nerve transmission, and strong muscle contractions require a constant magnesium level. During exercise, magnesium-dependent enzymes are necessary for fuel conversion to muscular energy, having an adequate amount of magnesium available to efficiently convert them into energy is crucial to athletic performance.

Magnesium is needed for more than 300 biochemical reactions in the body. It is essential for muscle contraction, energy metabolism, bone development and maintenance, muscle and nerve function, and cardiovascular health. It also plays important roles in protein synthesis and energy metabolism. Deficiency of magnesium contributes to muscle cramps, tremors, sleep disturbances, and in some cases, convulsive disorders. Though 100 mg or more is lost in sweat and used up by the muscles hourly, the 200 mg per serving in StamoPlex in conjunction with proper diet can adequately replenishes magnesium without the laxative effect larger doses can produce in other products.

Potassium
Potassium is an electrolyte mineral that is essential in the human diet. Among its numerous functions in the body, potassium helps regulate blood pressure, water balance, acid balance, and muscle and nerve cell function. It is the chief cation (positively charged ion) within all muscle cells, necessary for maintaining the optimal concentration and balance of sodium. Deficiency of potassium contributes to muscle weakness, muscle spasms, cramping, and rapid heart rate. Though 100 - 200 mg or more is lost in sweat and used up by the muscles hourly, StamoPlex in conjunction with proper diet can adequately replenish potassium without altering optimum sodium balance and does not cause stomach distress larger doses of potassium can produce in other products.

Sodium
Sodium is the chief cation (positively charged ion) outside the cell. The average American carries 8000 mg of excess sodium in extra cellular tissues. During endurance events, a minimum of three to four hours is necessary to deplete this mineral, which may result in symptoms of abnormal heartbeat, muscle twitching, and hypoventilation. However, if sodium is replaced at the same rate as depletion, it overrides the hormonal regulating mechanisms that enable the body to conserve electrolytes. Consumption of too much sodium will cause a variety of problems, the least of which is fluid retention. Far too many athletes have suffered needlessly with swollen hands and feet from water retention due to ingestion of salt tablets or electrolyte products too high in sodium during prolonged exercise in the heat. Therefore, StamoPlex was formulated to provide a more moderate, body-cooperative replenishment of 253 mg of sodium per serving, as sodium chloride in order to enable the body to conserve electrolytes.

Chloride
Chloride is the relative anion (negatively charged ion) that accompanies sodium. This electrolyte is absolutely necessary in maintaining the osmotic tension in both blood and extra cellular fluids. It's a somewhat complicated process, but to put it in the simplest terms, think of osmotic tension as being the proper balance and consistency of body fluids and electrolytes. StamoPlex in conjunction with proper diet can adequately replenish chloride without overriding the function of the hormone aldosterone in regulating and conserving proper electrolyte levels.

Note: "salt" (commonly called "sodium ") refers to sodium chloride, which is 40% sodium and 60% chloride by weight. The recommended amounts given above for both electrolytes, sodium and chloride, when combined together equals 300-600 mg sodium chloride, our recommended "salt" intake. And is well within the serving guidelines of StamoPlex.

StamoPlex Add Performance Based Vitamins

RIBOFLAVIN is involved in the process of energy production. It assists in the synthesis and oxidation of fatty acids and in the oxidation of amino acids and glucose. These processes are crucial to the body's production of energy. Riboflavin is also involved in thyroid hormone metabolism, thus influencing the body's metabolism. It also helps activate other vitamins such as vitamin B-6 and folic acid.

THIAMIN serves as a cofactor in numerous enzymatic processes in the body, most notably those involved in energy metabolism and in brain and nerve cell function. Because thiamin is essential for the conversion of carbohydrates into energy, high carbohydrate intake increases the body's thiamin requirements.

NIACIN is essential for growth, for healthy tissues, and for the conversion of carbohydrates into energy. It helps produce fats in the body and it assists in processing alcohol. Vitamin B-3 acts as a coenzyme in many cellular reactions, is involved in generating energy for normal cellular function, and may be involved in the processes by which skin pigments are made. Without niacin, thiamin (B-1) and riboflavin (B-2) cannot function properly.
