For those of you who don't visit my board...I posted this some time ago:
I would like to officially thank Ajinomoto's president Jack Heaton, sales manager Tim Osborne, vice president Fuminao Hachiuma, associate director Jay Kojima - Ph. D, sales and marketing manager Yoshihko Shimpo, Kim Shovelin (functional foods) and Mike Tesch (nutritionals) for the wonderful hospitality and tour of their beyond impressive facilities in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Moreover I would like to personally thank them for their interest and willingness to help me in amino acid research for their application in athletic performance.
For more than 20 years I have been doing experiments with amino acids to prove some of my theories and I am delighted to say: I have found NUMEROUS formulations of aminos (mixed with other nutrients) with profound effect on athletic performance, hypertrophy, anabolic as well as anti-catabolic actions, cell volumazing properties, release of numerous anabolic hormones (GH, IGF-1, Insulin, Testosterone...), improvement in mood, energy, strength, power, endurance, aerobic and anaerobic abilities, recovery, metabolism, well being, reaction speed, mental alertness, acuity and concentration...intellig ence and beauty...(OK - I am kidding about last two...)
Since 1981 when I started training I also started reading, researching and experimenting with numerous amino acid formulations.
I must confess: back home in Yugoslavia I was stealing empty prescriptions from my father (medical doctor) and I've learned how to write Rx for my favorite medication "EAK" (Hemofarm - Vrsac).
This "medication" was prescription (pharmaceutical grade) essential amino acids product in tablet form - and I must say: in reality EAA (Essential Amino Acids) are true medicaments with so many physiological benefits to humans in general (especially for the knowledgeable athletes).
Throughout the years I made every effort to obtain certain amino acids from the various sources (and numerous countries) and FINALLY after all these years I've got something that I was always looking for: THE BEST AMINO ACIDS ON THE PLANET - "AJINOPURE" from the leading amino acid manufacturer: AJINOMOTO.
I will disclose just this much for now: most of the amino acids on the US and World market are made from......human hair!!!
Not too many people are aware of this and it is kind of "industry secret" ( I must admit - I was not aware of that fact either...)
Just don't ask me and I will not tell - kind of thing...
Well, AJINOMOTO uses patented fermentation technology to manufacture their AJINOPURE bland - ultimately THE WORLDS HIGHEST QUALITY AMINO ACIDS TODAY.
OK...now - the good news:
Ajinomoto is very much interested to help me continue with my research and I can report that have already experimented with numerous amino acid formulations WITH EXCEPTIONAL RESULTS which I am ready to put on the nutritional (sport) supplements market through my Koloseum Nutritional Sciences (KNS) company.
I am getting "experimental supply" of amino acids as I request - and I am very grateful for that.
Certainly, I would like to use this opportunity to officially thank Ajinomoto, their president Jack Heaton and especially Tim Osborne for their generous donation of amino acids for my research.
AMINO ACIDS ARE FUTURE OF NUTRITIONAL SUPPLEMENTS - I am sure about that!
