Biologically active food supplement

Abstract

A biologically active food supplement intended to increase the athletes' muscle mass comprises Leuzea (or other medicinal plant containing ecdysteroids), male bee brood, ascorbic acid (Vitamin C). Vitamin E, and excipients (calcium stearate, talc, lactose) with the following ratio of components (mass %): Male bee brood 1-70; Leuzea 5-70; Ascorbic acid 1-70; Vitamin E 0.05-30; calcium stearate 0.92-0.95; talc 3-6; lactose—the rest.

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The proposed product has several benefits for athletes. It increases muscle strength and maintains testosterone levels. It also has anabolic, anti-catabolic, and potency enhancing effects.

Problems solved by technology

However, this preparation does not contain a polyvitamin complex or any vital microelements.

Its effect on a human body is explained strictly by the presence of pollen, which could complicate the interpretation of biological activity of the “Tonus” as it becomes necessary to know precisely when the pollen was collected and from what plants.

1) Allergic effect of pollen; 2) Rapid loss of the biological value of pollen during storage: a sharp decrease in activity versus time? As well as destructive temperature effect were observed. Existing preservation technologies cannot guarantee complete preservation of pollen ingredients. A part of vitamins and amino acids is already destroyed during the drying stage. Bees receiving pollen stored for a year in a refrigerator, have produced 56% less brood than those receiving fresh pollen, i.e. about half of the nutritious activity of flower pollen is lost.

3) Differences in chemical composition. Although Leveton is produced based on pollen collected from miscellaneous herbs, the chemical composition of pollen from batch to batch varies, which should be considered by a coach when prescribing Leveton.

However, not all the people can tolerate such intake method.

1) Short shelf life and refrigerator storage.

If used after that—one could get poisoned.

For that very reason, APILAR tablets have not found the application in sports.

Both prototypes have substantial disadvantages, which prevented their extended application in sports.
