¶ … Plant-Based Protein: Whole Green Hemps
The claims made by Whole Green Hemps are supported by the study by Furhman and Ferreri, who state that "plant foods are associated with beneficial effects on overall health, lifespan, immune function, and cardiovascular health [as well as] improved athletic performace" (233). Their study indicates that alternative plant-based protein supplements like Whole Green Hemps is good for the body and does provide the system with essential fatty acids. The fiber and vitamins plus the minerals in hemp protein are exactly those used in the human body, so there is the natural association. Furhman and Ferreri, however, do raise one objection as they indicate that a diet consisting solely of plant-based products would not be entirely beneficial for a balanced system. But Whole Green Hemps is not intended to replace an athlete's normal diet, as it is only used as a supplement; therefore, this objection is not relevant to the discuss of whether this product's claims are verifiable. As far as the product is concerned, the ingredients contained therein are sufficient to cause the supplement to perform as claimed and the research conducted by Furhman and Ferreri is sufficient evidence that a plant-based protein supplement like Whole Green Hemps will do what it says it will do.

Caffeine: Applied Nutriceuticals...
Those who are used to receiving caffeine stimulants will likely require more than individuals who are not used to them. The researchers also indicate that caffeine can become addictive and habit forming, but this is not something denied by the producers of the supplement so there is no case of something being refuted. Essentially this study simply supports the claims made by this supplement.

Creatine Whey Glutamine Powder (Vanilla)
The study by Herda, Herda, Costa, Ryan, Stout, and Cramer found that creatine whey powder supplement did assist in the building of muscle mass in a controlled study using a "randomized, double-blinded, placebo-controlled clinical trial" (3091). However, they also found that the same results could be achieved by implementing…
Athletes may take simulants, narcotic analgesics, anabolic steroids, beta blockers, diuretics, peptide hormones, or engage in blood doping, a technique to increase packed cell volume by re-infusing previously drawn blood. Drug testing is not standardized enough and is too widespread to identify drugs reliably, therefore failing to serve as a valid deterrent. (Doping in sports, p. 211). But Canseco also may not be the best of messenger-ex-athletic stars, since he
Marketing Research In practical terms, there is very little difference between Gatorade and PowerAde. Both are forms of dietary supplements which often pose an unknown source of danger for individuals growing up to be sportsmen. All the growing up sportsmen should be educated on the subject as they are likely to face troubles in their life later, otherwise. Many products that are marketed provide good returns for the marketing organization, but little
Steroids Should Not Be Banned A steroid is an organic compound that occurs in plants and animals. They have many functions, including respiration, tissue building, and the production of sex hormones. Anabolic steroids are drugs that mimic the effects of testosterone on the body, increasing protein synthesis within cells. This causes cellular tissues to build up in muscles, the ability for those muscles to work harder under stress, and of course,
For obese individuals on the Atkins diet, a moderate exercise program that allows the body to burn fat rather than glycogen can be beneficial, since they would be able to exercise longer. For trained athletes, a higher level of exercise at a longer duration is possible, since the body's threshold for the change to using glycogen as ATP is higher. Thus, our results that obese individuals on that Atkins diet
