LG sciences: Mystato

LG Science Myostato should be a staple in your supplement cupboard. So some science behind it. Myostatin is a catabolic protein which essentially stops muscle growth. It is necessary in the body, but when you want to grow and gain some serious muscle mass (without the aid of AAS) then inhibiting this protein can help you to grow the way that you want.

This supplement will also increase follistatin levels which is the antagonist to myostatin – therefore supporting increased muscle growth. And with muscular growth comes size, strength and power. Myostato contains 5 ingredients.

Calcium lactate is the form given to individuals who have a calcium deficiency. And with a deficiency this puts someone at risk of bone and muscle damage. Supplementing with calcium can help to keep our bones strong – your parents weren’t wrong when they told you this as a child.

Calcium HMB. HMB (β-Hydroxy β-Methylbutyrate) is an active metabolite of leucine that reduces muscle protein breakdown by inhibiting myostatin. It is not as effective as leucine, but still does a great job.

Broccoli extract contains zinc and supports healthy hormone function, specifically for estrogen regulation. Broccoli contains sulforaphane (part of the isothiocyanate family) which is a powerful antioxidant and has also been reported in studies to be protective against certains forms of cancer.

Schisandra fruit helps to support a healthy immune system. When we train, our immune system is temporarily compromised, and this can put us at risk of things like the common cold. Supplementing with compounds that can support our immune system protects us from these!

Epicatechin is found in dark chocolate and green tea. Studies have shown its extraordinary benefits of being an antioxidant as well as supporting the reduction of myostatin.
