- Theory
|
- PS has been shown to reduce blood levels of cortisol
- a hormone produced in response to stress. One of the effects of elevated cortisol
production is accelerated amino acid catabolism - which could lead to muscle breakdown.
Suppression of cortisol levels could theoretically maintain muscle mass during periods of
increased stress and intense training.

- Scientific Support
|
- PS, like other phospholipids, is a major constituent
of cellular membranes. Maintenance of membrane integrity is a crucial component of proper
function, but there is little direct evidence that PS supplements improve membrane
integrity or cellular function. PS has, however, been linked to a suppression of cortisol
secretion during periods of intense training (20-30%) - an effect which may help enhance
recovery and repair, particularly following intense exercise or injury.
