ProteinAgil

Protein is an essential macromolecule made up of amino acids arranged in a specific order that determines the structure and function of the protein. These amino acids fold into complex, three-dimensional structures that are necessary for their biological functions. Proteins perform numerous functions in the body, such as catalytically supporting biochemical reactions as enzymes, providing structural support in tissues such as collagen in the skin and keratin in hair and nails, transporting molecules such as hemoglobin, which carries oxygen in the blood, playing a central role in signaling that allows cells to respond to environmental changes, and supporting the immune system through antibodies that protect the body from pathogens. Proteins such as actin and myosin are also involved in muscle contraction and movement.

Protein deficiency can cause a variety of symptoms that vary depending on severity and duration. The most common signs include muscle wasting and reduced muscle strength, as protein is essential for maintaining muscle mass and function. Deficiency leads to weakening of muscles and reduced performance. Bone health can also be affected, as protein is important for bone density and calcium absorption. Deficiency increases the risk of osteoporosis, especially in older adults. Another effect of protein deficiency is chronic fatigue, as protein is necessary for energy production and deficiency impairs the synthesis of ATP. The immune system is also weakened, as proteins are important for building antibodies and multiplying lymphocytes. Protein deficiency can also cause skin, hair and nail problems such as hair loss and brittle nails, as these are based on the proteins keratin, collagen and elastin. It can also delay wound healing, as protein is necessary for cell proliferation and collagen synthesis. Severe deficiency can lead to edema, as the reduced production of albumin in the blood plasma causes fluid retention in the tissues. Protein deficiency can also cause neuropsychological disorders such as depression and cognitive impairment, as amino acids are important for the synthesis of neurotransmitters. Finally, children with inadequate protein intake can suffer developmental delays and growth disorders.

ProteinAgil meets the body's protein needs with high-quality pea protein that provides all the essential amino acids, which are crucial for muscle building, repair, enzyme and hormone production, and immune system support. The complete amino acid balance promotes muscle protein synthesis and rapid recovery after exercise - ideal for athletes and active people looking to increase their performance. The special digestive enzymes (DigeZyme®) in ProteinAgil improve the absorption and utilization of the amino acids by breaking down proteins into smaller peptides and amino acids that the body can more easily absorb. This increases the bioavailability of the protein and effectively supports muscle repair and growth. The improved digestion also promotes a greater feeling of satiety, which helps with weight regulation by reducing unnecessary calorie intake while increasing the nutrient density of food - particularly beneficial for those looking to improve their body composition and optimize their health. The inclusion of specific digestive enzymes (DigeZyme®) in ProteinAgil maximizes the absorption and utilization of these amino acids. Enzymes such as protease help break down protein complexes into smaller peptides and free amino acids, which can then be more easily absorbed by the body. This improves the bioavailable amount of protein, which is crucial to effectively meet the amino acid needs for muscle repair and growth. Improved protein digestion also helps increase satiety and may contribute to long-term weight management by reducing unnecessary calorie intake while increasing the nutrient density of the foods consumed. This is especially important for individuals looking to change their body composition while optimizing their health.

Legally speaking, food supplements are considered food. They contain nutrients such as vitamins and minerals that are also found in normal food. In food supplements, however, these substances are in concentrated form and usually in a higher dosage. Food supplements are available in various forms. There are tablets, capsules, powders, effervescent tablets or even liquids. Some food supplements also contain plant extracts.

The AgilNature nutritional supplements are developed in collaboration with nutritionists. The valuable formulations mostly consist of a mineral and vitamin complex combined with plant extracts and are specifically tailored to their functions. The formulation combines the latest scientific findings with tried and tested old wisdom. The carefully selected ingredients make the AgilNature products a valuable nutritional supplement. The AgilNature nutritional supplements are high-quality products that are developed and manufactured according to the strict guidelines of the AgilNature quality promise. By avoiding known allergens, chemical additives and genetically modified substances, a high level of tolerability is guaranteed. Out of ethical conviction, we avoid all animal raw materials. ProteinAgil is 100% vegan!

In our nutritional supplements, we use the power of nature in addition to the vitamin and mineral complexes in order to contribute holistically to maintaining health. Unfortunately, there is very strict regulation of the marketing of nutritional supplements in the EU. We are therefore hardly allowed to advertise the effects of certain plant substances. However, that does not mean that they cannot work. If you want to find out more about the effects of plant substances, then do your own research. You will be surprised at the power that plants have!

Unfortunately, many people today do not have sufficiently filled micronutrient stores. This is mainly due to our lifestyle. Diet plays a big part in this. Currently, our diet often contains too much sugar and white flours as well as too much unhealthy fat and not enough fiber and plant-based food sources. If you want to refill your nutrient stores, make sure you eat a balanced and varied diet. But dietary supplements can also help you to fill up your reserves.

Dietary supplements are repeatedly criticized for leading to an overdose. Yes, dietary supplements may contain vitamins or minerals in higher concentrations than you would get from a normal diet. However, this does not immediately pose a risk of overdose. In fact, many people tend to have too few micronutrients in their stores.

Our body also has numerous sophisticated regulatory mechanisms, so that in many cases it only gets the nutrients from food that it really needs. However, it makes sense to have a blood analysis done by your family doctor before taking very highly concentrated food supplements in order to get an overview of your own storage and then be able to make a personalized selection of possible food supplements.

Sometimes dietary supplements are criticized for being potentially contaminated. However, our AgilNature quality promise guarantees dietary supplements that are free of known allergens, chemical additives and genetically modified substances. This means we can guarantee a high level of compatibility.

However, dietary supplements are not a substitute for a balanced and varied diet. The mere consumption of dietary supplements is often not enough to do something good for your body. If you want to get to the root of the reasons for your micronutrient deficiencies, you should start where you get most of your nutrients from: your diet. It is best to ensure a varied diet that contains many different types of fruit and vegetables, some whole grain products and few finished products and sweets. If you find this difficult, you can always get advice from various nutritionists: inside.

Recognizing a micronutrient deficiency is often not that easy. The body usually signals a deficiency with unspecific symptoms such as listlessness, tiredness or reduced stress tolerance. However, if massive deficiencies occur, they can manifest themselves in deficiency-related diseases. However, if you suspect this is the case with you, you should see a doctor.

However, most micronutrient deficiencies are not as severe. A good way to illustrate this is to compare people with gears that mesh and influence each other. If some gears are already a bit worn, the system no longer runs so smoothly. If some of your micronutrient stores are no longer so full, this has an impact on other processes in your body. So it makes sense to always fill your storage well. This can be achieved with a balanced and varied diet and possibly additional food supplements. A simple way to determine your micronutrient needs is to ask your doctor for an analysis of your micronutrient status.

Dietary supplements are often criticized. But there are also many people who never want to do without dietary supplements again. Now who is right?

Unfortunately, this question cannot be answered unequivocally, but in the following lines we would like to give you a few reasons why we believe that the consumption of dietary supplements can be useful.

1. Dietary supplements can help you to fill up certain nutrient deficiencies more quickly than a simple change in diet would do. Nevertheless, it makes sense to adjust your diet in parallel with the consumption of food supplements, because food supplements are not a substitute for a balanced and varied diet.
2. The AgilNature food supplements are also put together in such a way that they provide you with the best possible combination of minerals, vitamins and selected plant extracts for a specific goal.
3. Are you vegan? Of course we're happy about that, because you're protecting the animals and our environment, but you should definitely supplement with vitamin B12. Unfortunately, vitamin B12 can only be found in foods of animal origin and cannot be produced by the body itself. It is therefore essential for you to take vitamin B12 as a dietary supplement or in fortified foods. Attention: Even vegetarians: Despite the consumption of milk and milk products as well as eggs, internal vitamin B12 levels are often too low. It is therefore advisable for both vegans and vegetarians to have their vitamin B12 status and other critical micronutrients such as iron checked by their family doctor on a regular basis.
4. The desire for children is growing in you, but you don't want to do anything wrong when it comes to nutrition? Here you should pay particular attention to a sufficient intake or supplementation of folic acid and not just when you are already pregnant, but also when you are planning to become pregnant. However, we recommend that you inform yourself about this. You can either do this with your gynecologist or, even better, with a nutritionist: in.
5. You probably already knew that the body can synthesize vitamin D independently through the skin. But do you also know that in winter it is almost impossible to get enough sun to produce vitamin D adequately due to the position of the sun in our latitudes? Here, too, we strongly recommend having your family doctor check your vitamin D status and supplementing with vitamin D if necessary.
