The Leader in Sports Nutrition strikes again! The elite team of scientists at Max Muscle’s research and development has struck nutritional gold once again! Introducing the ADRX Advanced Adrenal Support. ADRX is a scientifcally-based formula delivering comprehensive nutritional support for healthy adrenal function. The ADRX formula was designed to promote optimization of the adrenal hormones and reset adrenal homeostasis. It is an ideal formula for post-thermogenic (fat burning) cycles, or for those who have a high usage rate of various stimulants, including, but not limited to, coffee, energy drinks and energy supplements. While Max Muscle Sports Nutrition (MMSN) began in the sports nutrition realm, the company has more recently committed to transferring that sustained excellence and quality into the general health realm. ADRX is simply the latest example of Max Muscle’s commitment to your health.

Combat AdrenalFatigue

After a round of thermogenics, it will do your body good to get some adrenal support and reset

adrenal homeostasis.

What Are Adrenals and Are They Important?The adrenals are major endocrine

glands in the body and produce a

variety of hormones in response to

both acute and chronic stress. During

acute stress the adrenals secrete

both adrenaline (epinephrine) and

noradrenaline (norepinephrine). These

hormones are involved in the body’s

“fght or fight” response. The adrenals

also produce corticosteroids, such as

glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids

in the response to chronic stress using

carbohydrates, proteins and fats as

fuels and regulating fuid and electrolyte

(salt) balance within the body. “Failure

to maintain proper adrenal health can

result in adrenal fatigue, low energy,

sleepless nights, severe drops in the

ability to recover, lower sex drive and

potential hormonal problems,” states

NASM Certifed Personal Trainer and

Nutrition Coach Paul Volstad.

How Does ADRX Work?ADRX’s special formula combines the

benefts of Whole Adrenal (Bovine)

and Adrenal Cortex (Bovine) in

addition to a robust mixture of herbal

adaptogens and standardized extracts.

Plant adaptogens are compounds

that increase the ability for humans

to adapt to environmental stressors.

Adaptogenic herbs have been used

effectively for hundreds of years

primarily in traditional medicine.

Ashwagandha, an adaptogen herb that

has been used for centuries, contain

withanolides providing multi-functional

support for promoting general mental

and physical wellness. Cordyceps

provides anti-fatigue and anti-stress

effects to the formula. Rhodiola

contains rosavins and salidrosides

that act to balance adrenal function to

modulate the effects of physical and

emotional stress.

Astragalus promotes immune support

and compliments the adaptogenic

activity of this formula. Bacopa, a

traditional Ayurvedic medicine, has

been used for centuries to support

the nervous system and promotes

relaxation. Magnolia helps maintain

healthy adrenal cortisol activity and

offers support for stress, mood and

emotional well-being. Panax ginseng

and Eleuthero function primarily as

adaptogens supporting overall adrenal

health including physical, chemical,

physiological and biochemical factors.

Why Should You Take ADRX?

ADRX is the most advanced and

clinically validated formula from MMSN

delivering comprehensive nutritional

support for healthy adrenal function.

“As someone who has overdone

stimulants in the past, ADRX has

become a staple of mine when I

cycle off of caffeine,” assures NESTA

Certifed Fitness Nutrition Coach, Terry

Goetze. “ADRX allows the user to take

stimulants responsibly and can allow

them to reintroduce them sooner.”

What Are Users Saying?MMSN customer Sam Mosier of

Loveland, Colorado had this to say

about ADRX: “I started taking ADRX

about a month into writing my

dissertation. Although exercising daily

and eating clean was helping me make

progress, the added stress of research

and the demands on a PhD candidate

created major stressors that lead to

an endless pooch that no limitation

of exercise and the right food choices

could combat. Enter ADRX. Not only

did I start sleeping better, waking up

feeling like I had actually rested, but

I also began to generally feel less

stressed and the endless cycle had

been broken. I no longer felt wired all

the time from the stimulants that got

me through the day and could actually

settle the stress and get progress back

on track.” MS&F
