Antioxidants are substances that help protect healthy cells from the damaging effects of free radicals, which are formed naturally in the body. Antioxidants are responsible for fighting disease and keeping you healthy, especially if you’re always very physically active, have bad habits like smoking, and frequently expose yourself to environmental contaminants like radiation. Recent studies have shown that beyond providing protection from cell-damaging free radicals, antioxidants may also help promote weight loss.

There are three main ways that a person can lose weight:

Eat a healthy, balanced diet

Control calorie intake

Ever since Sylvester Stallone popularized raw egg shakes in his movie “Rocky,” many bodybuilders have their own version on how to down eggs. The recent trend now focuses on egg whites. In fact, some companies have taken to preparing and producing Egg white products.

Eggs are nutritious and raw eggs provide un-denatured proteins for easy absorption. Unfortunately, the yolks are on you if you keep on drinking whole eggs. One, the cholesterol level of one egg yolk is over 300 milligrams. That’s already a day’s worth of cholesterol. Second, raw egg consumption … Continue Reading...

The supplement world can be a mysterious puzzle, navigating between endless isles of shelves stacked to the top with the newest and “greatest” product to hit the shelves. Oh, and I almost forgot the “know it all employee” who is certain his store’s brand tops the industry leading brand. I encourage everyone to hop on Google and research for themselves what supplements they should take for their goals, which brand is the best and why.

If you are new to the supplement industry and are just beginning a new healthy life style you might have heard of these top recommended … Continue Reading...

In our last article on Fasted Cardio, we mentioned that it’s great to do for fat loss, but we want to SPARE our muscles while doing so. In order to do this, we recommend a Branched Chain Amino Acids supplement, best of which is Modern BCAA, another product by USPLabs. Since we never got into the details of BCAAs in that post, we do it here:

Branched chain amino acids (BCAA) are essential amino acids that you should get from your diet because your body is not capable of producing them. As the building … Continue Reading...

If you’re on this site, then you’re looking to lose bodyfat, plain and simple. Oxy ELITE Pro works – but it is a supplement, not a pill that will magically fix all of your problems. You can’t use it forever, and if your diet plan consists of a bunch of garbage, your results will also be garbage.

With that in mind, we’d like to introduce you to a new kind of eating plan. This eating plan is not necessarily endorsed by USPLabs, but they won’t refute it either.

WE ARE NOT INTO DIETS. WE ARE INTO LIFESTYLES.

There are tons … Continue Reading...

Many people nowadays are on gluten-free diets. There is even a good chance you should be eating gluten-free if you’re not aware of Celiac Disease. If you want to learn the pros and cons, you might want to check here for more info: http://www.ors.od.nih.gov/pes/dats/food/balance/Documents/November2011.pdf

We are often asked whether or not OxyELITE Pro is Gluten-Free. This page has been updated, since one of our commenters on another page posted that things have changed, per USPLabs.

We are striking out the old information (so that it stays there), but disregard that in favor of the new info:

Get the Most out of OxyELITE Pro When Dieting

This is a guide that provides recommendations on how to mix OxyELITE Pro with other foods, supplements, and timing strategies to have the best cut possible while on OEP.

First, we are obliged to tell you that food comes first. If you are not eating right, then ANY supplementation plan we give you is destined for failure. OxyELITE Pro is a supplement, not a pill that allows you to be lazy. We assume that you have your diet down and are actively monitoring it. If you don’t know … Continue Reading...
