THE SCIENCE
A Complete package of nutrients
ENHANCED RECOVERY™ is a unique combination of ingredients designed to provide a complete package of nutrients to athletes. It includes omega-3 fatty acids with high-quality proteins, carnitine, vitamins D and E and natural antioxidants in a fruit juice beverage.
Our patent-pending process also stabilizes the omega-3 fatty acids to limit their oxidation, which allows athletes to consume a high amount of omega-3s.

how the right nutrition enables smarter recovery
Dr. Stuart Phillips, McMaster University
Listen to Dr. Stuart Phillips speak during a webinar with 4 Moove Sport & Physio Zone about how ENHANCED RECOVERY™ delivers all of the key nutrients needed for muscle recovery and repair.
Omega-3 fatty acids have well-established anti-inflammatory and antioxidant properties. Regular consumption of omega-3 fatty acids has been shown to reduce muscle damage/soreness/stiffness and augment strength gains from resistance training.
Our omega-3 fatty acids come from cod liver oil that is sustainably sourced from the North Atlantic Ocean.
- Muscle protein Synthesis -
The Process That Repairs and builds The Muscles
Hard training and competition causes micro-tears and other damage to muscle cells. To repair and recover, muscle cells rely on a process known as muscle protein synthesis (MPS). Damaged muscle proteins are repaired and new muscle proteins are added whenever MPS is consistently greater than muscle protein breakdown.
ENHANCED RECOVERY™ contains whey proteins, collagen proteins and sunflower seed proteins to supply the nine essential amino acids – including the amino acid leucine – that quickly turn on and maintain MPS.

The Synergistic Effect
Each of the ingredients in ENHANCED RECOVERY™ have individual benefits, but when combined, those same ingredients result in even greater benefits. For example, the combination of omega-3s and protein has been shown to result in greater MPS and gains in muscle mass than if the ingredients are taken separately.
