`JUMBO means BIG! JUMBO means STRONG!` The original JUMBO was
developed to help those with very fast metabolisms (skinny
`hardgainers`), or people with extreme energy demands due to their
activity levels. The nutrient ratios reflect these purposes. The
popularity of JUMBO ` stemming from its quality and results ` warranted
that we develop a specific formula for the more normal and athletic
metabolisms, and for the demands of typical bodybuilding training. And
the second member of the JUMBO family, JUMBO PROFESSIONAL was born!
In JUMBO PROFESSIONAL we shifted the ratio towards a higher protein
percentage. While providing 55 grams of high-quality protein (more than
JUMBO), the serving size is smaller: 162 grams. This obviously means
that the carbohydrate and caloric yield of the formula is lower, because
it`s unnecessary to take in higher amounts for those people that fall
under the specific body and activity types we had in mind when designing
this product.
JUMBO PROFESSIONAL is designed with whey protein. Dietary proteins
are the source of nitrogen and indispensable amino acids, which the body
requires for tissue growth and maintenance. Therefore, JUMBO
PROFESSIONAL`s protein contributes to the growth and maintenance of
muscle mass.* Whey protein from milk is a so-called complete protein,
because it provides the body with all necessary amino acids, including
the 9 amino acids (i.e. Histidine, Isoleucine, Leucine, Lysine,
Methionine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Tryptophan, Valine) that are
considered essential for life, because the body cannot synthesize them.
Determination of the nutritional efficiency of protein in the diet is
in most cases based on estimating the extent to which dietary protein
nitrogen is absorbed and retained by the body and is able to balance
daily nitrogen losses. Net Protein Utilisation (NPU) is the percentage
of ingested nitrogen that is retained in the body, and the Biological
Value (BV) gives the percentage of absorbed nitrogen that is retained.
Biological Value is the product of NPU and digestibility. Whey protein
has good digestibility and amino acid composition, thus it`s Biological
Value is great compared to other dietary protein sources like meat,
fish, eggs or soy.
JUMBO PROFESSIONAL still features the `6-CARB` carbohydrate blend
that includes oat flour, Palatinose` and native waxy maize food starch.
The `JUMBO` extra ingredient matrix has been improved and increased
in dosage! Each serving of JUMBO PROFESSIONAL provides a 6600 mg dose of
our proprietary `CREA-BOMB multi-component creatine matrix` (6 types of
Creatines)! At least a 3 g daily dose of Creatine is scientifically
proven to increase performance in successive burst of short-term, high
intensity exercise like weight training and interval cardio.*
We also added extra amino acids on top of the amounts coming from
proteins, including essential ones. Magnesium and vitamin C contributes
to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue and to normal energy-yielding
metabolism. Magnesium contributes to normal protein synthesis, to the
reduction of tiredness and fatigue, to normal functioning of the nervous
system (neurotransmission and muscle contraction including heart
muscle), to normal energy-yielding metabolism, to electrolyte balance,
to the maintenance of normal bones and teeth, and has a role in the
process of cell division. vitamin C contributes to maintain the normal
function of the immune system, to normal collagen formation for the
normal function of cartilage and blood vessels and to the protection of
cells from oxidative stress.*
