Primarily they are used to keep your body in a state of anabolism (muscle growth or maintenance). The benefits of this range far and wide from increased muscle density and repair, to aiding in metabolic rate regulation. These are best used by adding the powder to about 1 litre of water and sipping on them gradually throughout exercise. This provides the muscle tissue everything it needs to stay fueled whilst also aiding in keeping you hydrated and energised.

They also aid in a huge amount of other ways, from heart health and functionality to increasing the good cholesterol levels in the body.
