Muscle Guard

For people going through stages where maintaining muscle becomes difficult: marked caloric restriction, prolonged reduction in physical activity, or times when diet and exercise cannot be ideal. Also for active individuals during periods of demanding training. Muscle Guard does not replace strength training or adequate protein intake, which are the foundation.

Because they are not equivalent products. Protein provides amino acids and contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass. Muscle Guard, on the other hand, brings together HMB, taurine, and vitamins D3 and K2 in a specific formulation. Therefore, increasing protein intake does not replicate the composition of Muscle Guard, nor does it mean incorporating its ingredients in the same amounts.

Protein should remain a priority in your diet. Muscle Guard is intended as a different nutritional supplement, not as a protein substitute. Furthermore, vitamin D contributes to normal muscle function and, together with vitamin K, to the maintenance of bones under normal conditions.

Yes. IVB Protein provides the nine essential amino acids, including leucine, necessary for the synthesis of new muscle proteins. Muscle Guard complements that intake with HMB, taurine, and vitamins D3 and K2. These are products with different and compatible functions.

No. They are compounds with different mechanisms. Creatine helps improve physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise.  Muscle Guard is aimed at the care and preservation of muscle mass. They can be used together, and in fact, their functions are complementary.

No. Muscle Guard makes special sense when exercise cannot be performed with adequate intensity or when diet is more restrictive than desired. Older adults and those going through a period of lower physical activity or at higher risk of muscle loss can especially benefit from its formulation. However, athletes can also benefit from Muscle Guard, especially in cases of intense training with the intention of improving muscle recovery.

Yes, although it is not necessary. The sum of both D3 vitamins is 2,000 IU daily (1,000 IU from each product), which is within the usual supplementation range and below the tolerable upper limit. Vitamin K2 also adds up without risk within the recommended nutritional ranges.

Yes. Magnesium contributes to normal muscle function, normal protein synthesis, and the reduction of tiredness and fatigue. Combined with Muscle Guard, you get more complete coverage for muscle care and energy production, which is especially useful when dietary intake is very restrictive.

The answer is highly individual and depends on the audience and the goals associated with its consumption. Muscle recovery can be experienced in a few days, while muscle maintenance requires continuous intake for at least a 4-week period.  As with any supplement, consistency is key.

No, and the confusion stems from energy drinks. In those drinks, the stimulating effect is produced by caffeine, not taurine. Muscle Guard contains no caffeine or any other stimulants.

Yes. The ingredients in Muscle Guard (HMB, taurine, vitamin D3, and K2) have a well-documented safety profile at the doses contained in the product. It does not cause dependency or tolerance. If you have any questions, consult your healthcare professional.

If you are undergoing any medical treatment or have a health condition, we recommend consulting with your healthcare professional before incorporating any dietary supplement.
