MuscleTech Muscle Peptide 185

THE MASTER KEY TO UNEQUIVOCAL, MIND-BLOWING MUSCLE GAINS!

Peptide 185™ is composed of two leucine molecules bonded together, creating a patented dipeptide structure known as DL-185™. The power of DL-185™ has been supported by human clinical research.

• Dramatically boosts lower body strength, total strength & lower body reps to failure!*
• Boosts muscle protein synthesis by 159%*

KEY INGREDIENTS

2,000MG DL-185™ DILEUCINE‡

Researchers did just that when they created L-Leucyl-L-Leucine Monohydrate or Dileucine (DL-185™). Dileucine is a peptide consisting of two leucines chemically bonded to one another that get into the bloodstream intact and can boost protein synthesis even better than regular l-leucine. And we’re not just talking about a “little better” either! In a groundbreaking study, subjects who consumed 2000 mg of DL-185™ demonstrated a massive 159% greater activation of muscle protein synthesis compared to baseline and 60% greater than regular leucine! What is even more interesting is that compared to baseline, leucine did not stimulate muscle protein synthesis, indicating that the intact dileucine is signaling the muscle to resynthesize new muscle proteins!*

THE SCIENCE

159% GREATER ACTIVATION OF MUSCLE PROTEIN SYNTHESIS

In a groundbreaking study, subjects who consumed 2000 mg of DL-185™ found in Peptide 185™ demonstrated a 159% greater activation of muscle protein synthesis compared to baseline and 60% greater than regular leucine.*

MORE ANABOLIC THAN LEUCINE

Normally, after you consume protein, digestion breaks the chemical bonds between the amino acids that make up that protein and the result is shorter strings, including free amino acids and dipeptides (dipeptides are short peptides containing only two amino acids). What’s special about dipeptides is that small intestines absorb dipeptides faster than their single-molecule counterparts for maximized amino acid delivery to the muscle.*
