EHPlabs Oxywhey + Glutamine
OxyWhey is an innovative science-based, non-GMO protein blend for lean muscle development and weight management. The unique blend assists with recovery, increases performance and enhances endurance with an added vitality boost! It comes in an all-natural range of flavors, making it irresistibly easy to hit your protein goal.
Proteins are polymers of amino acids linked via peptide bonds. They play a vital role in the function and regulation of the body’s tissues and organs, including muscle protein synthesis. The Recommended Dietary Allowance (RDA) of protein for healthy individuals is 0.8g/kg/day.
For optimal training adaptations, it has become increasingly evident that protein intake should be increased to at least 1.4–1.6 g/kg/day. In an effort to meet these intakes, supplementation is beneficial.
OxyWhey contains 25g of protein, 2g or less of fat and 3g of carbs or less per scoop, making it the ideal supplement for meeting protein requirements. It comes in a delicious range of flavors and has been formulated to conquer everyone’s fears of gas, bloating and stomach discomfort.
PROMOTE MUSCLE GROWTH AND RECOVERY
Whey protein is a rich source of all the essential amino acids (EAA), containing the highest known levels of any natural food source. It also naturally contains BCAAs which are metabolized directly into muscle tissue and are effective for skeletal-muscle protein synthesis during and after exercise. They help to replenish decreased energy levels and assist with growth and repair of lean muscle tissue. There are 20 amino acids, 9 of which must be obtained through diet:
Methionine assists in energy production and fat metabolism.
Lysine stimulates muscle building.
Tryptophan enhances mood and pain tolerance.
Threonine plays an important role in heart health, strong bones and muscles.
Phenylalanine reduces RPE, pain tolerance and enhances mood. Histidine assists in offsetting lactic acid build up.
Leucine plays a vital role in protein synthesis and energy production.
Isoleucine enhances endurance, energy and muscle recovery.
Valine is important for muscular growth, energy, and recovery.
REDUCED CRAVINGS
Another benefit of whey protein is more balanced blood glucose levels, hunger controlling hormones and appetite. Blood sugar levels impact energy, concentration, ability to lose weight, performance, and an imbalance can lead to rapid mood swings and increased cravings.
IMMUNE SUPPORT
Super probiotic Lactobacillus Rhamnosus is also included in the formulation to support immune & gut health. Assisting you to stay on track with your health goals while keeping healthy.
EASY TO DIGEST
OxyWhey has been formulated with digestive enzymes to make you feel good on the inside and out. Studies show that Prohydrolase has the potential to improve digestion and absorption. The addition of this patented enzyme combined with lactase ensures that OxyWhey delivers all the benefits, without the gas, bloating and discomfort some may experience.

L-Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid found in muscle cells, comprising over 60% of skeletal muscle. Among 20 amino acids, glutamine provides the most versatility of amino acid metabolism and immune function and plays a vital role in intestinal health. However, glutamine needs can often be greater than its ability to produce it, therefore adequate intake and supplementation can be of great benefit.
EHPlabs’ L-Glutamine is HPLC tested to ensure that it is the highest quality pharmaceutical grade glutamine.
ENHANCES IMMUNITY & OPTIMISES INTESTINAL HEALTH
Glutamine is highly utilised by the immune system as glutamine is essential for immune cell proliferation and function. Various factors such as increased physical activity, can reduce levels of circulating glutamine, therefore making these individuals more susceptible to illness. L-glutamine has also been shown to boost immune system function through inhibition of inflammatory responses. As a result, glutamine supplementation has been shown amongst various studies to increase glutamine concentrations and support the immune system.
Glutamine also plays a major role in digestive health. This is because the gut is where glutamine is mostly metabolised. Glutamine is responsible for helping repair and maintain gut barrier function of the small intestines. Glutamine also helps protect the intestines from damage and injury. As a result, glutamine supplementation can help improve gut health, and even help reduce symptoms and severity of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), and digestive issues commonly associated with celiac disease.
INCREASES LEAN MUSCLE MASS & DELAYS DOMS
L-glutamine is an amino acid which serves as a building block for protein, aiding in muscle gain and exercise performance. According to a recent meta-analysis, glutamine has a significant effect on weight reduction. This can be supported by a study in which participants took glutamine during six weeks of weight training and showed an increase in lean tissue mass and improved strength. Another study showed that eight weeks of glutamine supplementation resulted in increased upper and lower body strength, increased muscular power, and reduced body fat. Findings also show that supplementation increases the rate of recovery after exercise, reduces muscle damage, and reduces DOMS.
