What Supplements are Good For Baseball Players To Take?

The college and professional levels of baseball have tightened up their drug policies these last few years.  This can be a good thing for the game of baseball, but it makes it a little harder to find supplements that are ok to take.  In this section there will be some descriptions of supplements that in the past have been ok.  This does not mean that they will be ok when you take them or follow the rules now.  Please check with whoever is in charge of your drug program to see what is ok and what isn't before taking any products described here.  This is just an overall description of the supplements and how they can help.  Not to be confused with supplements eligible to be consumed within your organization.  With that being said, let's check out the supplements.

Cytosport Muscle Milk is one of the newer protein powders available. What’s in it that makes it different from other protein powders? The custom based protein and peptide mix known as EvoPro™. In this mix are micellar alpha and beta caseins, calcium caseinate, sodium caseinate, whey concentrate, whey peptides, bovine colostrum extract, and canola oils.

Cytosport Muscle Milk gives bodybuilders and other sportspersons the protein and Creatine energy production that is necessary for lean muscle growth and repair. It advances the burning of fat, and helps to improve muscle building and stamina. If you’re tired of all the boring protein powders on the market, then you are ready to try Cytosport Muscle Milk. This product comes in flavors such as Banana Crème, Blueberries & Crème, Chocolate, Cookies & Cream, Mocha Joe, Orange Crème, Piña Colada, Rocky Road, Root Beer Float, Strawberry and Vanilla Crème.

Cytosport Muscle Milk is the perfect bedtime proteinbecause of its protein blend of whey and
casein. It is patterned after human mother’s milk, which has important anabolic growth potential. One of its main ingredients, bovine colostrum, is identical to that found in human colostrum, but at higher levels. Female mammals manufacture colostrum during the first 24 to 48 hours after birth, and it has immune boosters together with antioxidants, vitamins, minerals, enzymes, amino acids and other growth factors.

This amazing product helps grow muscle faster than gainers, whey or even Creatine. Locked within human mother’s milk are long-held secrets to muscle growth potential previously considered impossible. Cytosport has unlocked these secrets after years of study. They’ve even found ways to improve on these secrets for greater muscle synthesis. Plus, they’ve added a breakthrough that allows you to produce more of your own Creatine.

Benefits of using Muscle Milk:
Creatine Production: Patent-pending, medically proven EndoCreatine™ gives you maximum benefits of
Creatine loading and storage by increasing your body's natural production of Creatine.
Efficient Energy Production: Lean Lipids™ are special fats that are easily mobilized for workout energy, enhance your body's fat metabolism and promote protein synthesis, anti-inflammatory effects and mineral retention.
Muscle Growth and Repair: EvoPro™ is a complex ratio of proteins, peptides and amino acids designed to replicate the amazing benefits of mother’s milk for rapid tissue growth and repair.

Best ways to use Muscle Milk:
Before: Drink 30 minutes - two hours before your workout as you would a performance shake or smoothie
During: Drink together with Cytomax to flood the body with growth nutrients and acid-buffering agents
After: Drink within one-hour after workouts to encourage muscle synthesis during periods normally marked by breakdown
Evening: One serving before bed helps make your sleep time more anabolic

Proven Anabolic in 3 Million Years of Experiments
Leading scientists 'rethinking' the role of fats in increasing lean muscle growth have shown all fats are not created equal. The type of fat determines whether you use it for muscle energy or store it as body fat! 'Good lipids' used in Muscle Milk promote fat loss 3 ways:

• MCTs, the predigested 'fatless fats', are more likely burned for muscle energy and heat than stored as fat. 20% of human milk and Muscle Milk lipids are MCTs. MCTs also promote positive nitrogen balance.
• Long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids are also less likely to be stored as fat. We use special enzyme engineering to make these lipids even more functional, promoting anti-inflammatory effects and enhanced mineral retention.
• Recent research reveals calories with engineered lipids, taken before and during workouts, promote leanness. It is thought that these calories are used for workout energy, with less deposited as fat.

So while Muscle Milk may contain slightly more fat than older ultra-carb products, our Lean-Lipids are designed to help you get leaner.

Muscle Milk triggers new levels of muscular growth in 3 ways other products can't:

1. Creatine GCC - Help Support Your Body's Own Creatine Production
We discovered a revolutionary method to increase your body's own production of muscle energy critical Creatine. These Creatine factors help your body to produce more Creatine than normal.
Creatine supplements are good, but so is your body's making more of its own. Plus, Creatine GCC scavenges toxic homocysteine, an enemy of muscle growth.

2. EvoPro™ - Nature's Ultimate Anabolic Protein-Amino Blend
Human milk is composed of highly unique and complex proteins, peptides and amino acids, which is why it grows human muscle tissue so rapidly. EvoPro includes these alpha and beta micellar caseins, and more. Nature created this precise mix to stimulate muscle growth to higher levels, and EvoPro is the ultimate nitrogen source to deliver it.

3. LeanLipids - 'Good Fats' that Help You Get Leaner
Human milk contains custom fat structures that actually promote leanness, while retaining more energy in the body. This promotes thermogenesis, enabling protein and
amino acids to be used for muscle growth at higher levels. LeanLipids even help retain minerals critical to muscle contraction, and are a great source of these customized lipids for serious athletes.
