More about Rapid Recovery Complex:

The nutrient requirement in athletes is highest immediately after intense and prolonged physical activity. The 30 – 45 minute window after training or events is a crucial time during which the body races to recover as quickly as possible.

The body’s evolutionary instinct to immediately replace muscle glycogen (our first and main source of energy) means that it will use whatever nutrients are available, and will metabolise amino acids present in muscle tissue, resulting in muscle wastage.

By rapidly supplying both long-chain and simple carbohydrates to replace glycogen, as well as fast acting protein to replace amino acids, the body recovers quickly, without breaking down existing amino acids.

Sci-MX’s Rapid Recovery Complex is precisely formulated as a post training recovery drink, and/or a comprehensive energy, amino acid and electrolyte replacement drink to use during long periods of intense physical activity such as military training, Iron Man events, marathons etc. as well as shorter, highly intensive activities like sprinting, power-lifting, weight-lifting, rugby scrummaging etc.

The carbohydrates consist of an ideal ratio of long chain glucose polymers for sustained energy supply, as well as fast acting simple sugars (dextrose monohydrate) for rapid energy replacement and fructose (fruit sugar) to replace hepatic (liver) glycogen.

Protein in Sci-MX’s Rapid Recovery Complex is supplied in the form of premium whey protein isolate, which has the highest bio-availability, absorption rate and retention of all protein sources. Research has shown that the highest rate of nitrogen retention is achieved with whey protein isolate. In addition to the advantage in terms of protein utilisation, whey protein also contains proteins such as lactalbumen and immunoglobins. Of special importance to body-builders and athletes is a very high concentration of branched chained amino acids (BCAA’s) found in whey protein, which make up about a third of the amino acid content of human muscle tissue.

Micro-filtration is a state-of-the-art process, which is used to create Sci-MX’s whey protein. This preserves the integrity of the proteins, which otherwise could be damaged by excessive heat. The excellent manufacturing process & amino acid ratios used in producing Sci-MX’s award winning products ensures that our products remain the ultimate choice for the serious body-builder, athlete or active individual.

Studies have shown that whey protein is very quickly metabolised and absorbed into the digestive system, ensuring it is available just as rapidly to recovering muscles. It also contains the highest level of essential, muscle repairing BCAA’s, making it an ideal, post-workout protein drink.

Rapid Recovery Complex is a light, refreshing, fruit flavoured drink, suitable even during events or training, and is available in three delicious flavours.

Directions For Use:

Add four level scoops (95g) to 300 – 400 ml of cool water (depending on taste preference) and shake or stir vigorously. Allow to settle for a few minutes before consuming.

During event/training: Premix with water in a water bottle or hydration pack and sip continuously throughout the duration of the event or training session. Have approximately one serving per hour of intense event or training.

Post-event recovery: Have one serving per 1 hour of training or event duration afterwards, to help with recovery. Try to drink the first serving as quickly as possible after the event or training, and sip further servings over a period of 15 - 30 minutes.

Hydration and warm weather: During an event or training, always avoid becoming thirsty by ensuring that fluids are taken continuously. Extra water must be consumed in addition to Rapid Recovery Complex, especially during warm weather
