A-TRON

A-TRON: THE PERFECT PARTNER FOR OMEGATONE 3 A-Tron is carefully formulated to provide optimal nutrition for the muscular-skeletal system and has a perfect partner in Omegatone 3, available in the Sportron Joint Pack. MUSCULAR SKELETAL SYSTEM Muscles are basically made up of protein and glycogen. Energy from glucose is stored in muscles as glycogen, which is very important to everybody who needs to keep moving! The joints and ligaments in the body are the places where muscles get attached to bone and bone is the real living tissue that gives a rigid, yet flexible, structure to the whole body. HOW DOES FOOD AFFECT MUSCLES? All protein is made up of various combinations of amino acids, i.e. amino acids are the real building blocks of protein. So, the protein in the food we eat gets digested into individual amino acids and is then re-synthesised into our own body protein according to our individual needs and genetic make-up. It takes energy to build and maintain muscles! Carbohydrate foods (e.g. bread, rice, potato, pasta) provide energy and then protein foods (e.g. meat, fish, chicken, cheese) provide amino acids to make the muscles. Exercise, together with good food, makes good strong muscles and bones. WHAT ABOUT BODY WEIGHT? Overweight is bad news for your body. Too much weight means you strain every muscle, joint and bone in your body! Weight, as well as diseases like arthritis, can lead to painful joints which can really interfere with the comfort of daily living. To live with nagging joint pain is depressing. Simple tasks become such a huge effort! Be honest with yourself - if you are carrying too much weight, it is time to do take action and choose to lose some. However, you don’t have to be super skinny! The important thing to remember is not to carry more weight that your body frame can manage. ABOUT A-TRON A Tron contains Glucosamine and Chondroitin; important ingredients that help soothe ‘eina’ joints. Glucosamine is incorporated into the structure of connective tissue and is involved on the formation of nails, tendons and ligaments. Chondroitin is found in cartilage (the cushion of the joint!) and works in conjunction with Glucosamine to help inflammation and joint repair. Then, there is also MSM (Methyl Methonyl Sulphate) which provides an organic source of the nutrient sulphur and sulphur is an important part of cartilage because it helps maintain flexibility and elasticity. Research suggests that MSM helps to reduce joint degeneration and inflammation. WHO SHOULD USE A-TRON? Diseases of the bones, joints, muscles and ligament are widespread and are often associated with pain and swelling. If you have sore joints, no matter what the cause, you can use A-Tron. If you want even more effective relief, then use A Tron with Omegatone 3. These 2 products are perfect long term partners!
