Beat the heat and boost your recovery with this refreshing Lemonade and Berry Slushie! This is perfect after a good workout or any activity, with sweet strawberries and crisp lemons to enhance the flavor and add some vitamin C!
However, this isn’t just any slushie: it contains a very special ingredient: my Rock and Restore essential amino acids!
My mix includes everything 9 of the essential amino acids (including BCAAs) in its free form for rapid absorption and metabolic use so you can improve your workouts, build lean muscle, recover faster, boost your immune system, and improve cognitive function. With an optimal dose of leucine (the most muscle-building BCAA), this is the perfect workout support!
You may be wondering: what are amino acids, why would you need them, and how are they different from dietary proteins?
Amino acids are involved in virtually ALL cellular processes in your body. You may associate them more with their role in muscle development and exercise support, but they are also the raw materials needed to produce important neurotransmitters (such as dopamine and serotonin), immune system hormones, enzymes, and antibodies. They also play crucial roles in cellular energy generation.
