Technically, Muscle Tech's Nitro-Tech Hardcore is a protein supplement, but there's really much more to this product than protein. Nitro-Tech Hardcore is essentially a muscle growth formula that goes beyond plain protein in three key ways. First, rather than just one or two protein sources, Nitro-Tech's SynthePro blend combines whey protein, creatine and essential amino acids to saturate your body with muscle building blocks. Second, because amino acid uptake by muscles requires insulin, Nitro-Tech's Insulinogen blends anabolic insulin drivers like alpha lipoic acid to support insulin secretion, sensitivity and utilization. Finally, blood flow to the muscles is increased via Nitro-Tech Hardcore’s Nitroxen, a nitric oxide accelerator with glutamine peptides and N-acetyl-cysteine.For easy mixing and ultra-fast absorption, Nitro-Tech Hardcore uses Nanomolecular Hyperdispersion Technology, an advanced technique which nanoparticulates a precise portion of protein particles to a fraction of regular size. Muscle Tech recommends consuming 2 servings of Nitro-Tech Hardcore 3 times daily for a minimum of 6 weeks.
