TweetStill a good option without the whey
TweetAs I stated in the other PW thread. Try 100% pomegranate juice to get many benefits. An old article I posted here about this.
"Free radicals in your body enhance the oxidation of low-density lipoprotein – the “bad” cholesterol – to form plaque that can clog your arteries. Antioxidants present in the pomegranate fruit can protect your arteries by preventing the conversion of cholesterol into plaque. Drinking pomegranate juice also stimulates production of nitric oxide to enhance vasodilation. A study published in “Complementary Therapies in Clinical Practice” in 2011 found consuming pomegranate juice can also protect against high blood pressure, a known risk factor for cardiovascular complications."
Pomegranate For Pump
Every hardcore bodybuilder knows to take nitric oxide boosters like arginine, not just for the pump they deliver, but for muscle growth and strength gains as well. Few may realize, though, that to help protect their increased NO level, they should consider reaching for a cold refreshing glass of pomegranate juice. -
Researchers at UCLA have recently reported — in the aptly named journal Nitric Oxide — that pomegranate juice was effective at protecting NO against oxidative destruction. In laboratory tests, the scientists compared the effects of the juice on NO destruction and NO action to other antioxidant-rich sources, such as Concord grape juice, blueberry juice, red wine and vitamins C and E. Pomegranate was found to be more effective at protecting and augmenting NO than all the others. In some cases, it was more than 300 times as powerful. The researchers determined that the potent antioxidant activity is responsible for the juice's benefits on NO. -
Drink eight ounces of pomegranate juice with 20 g of whey protein right before workouts. It will provide NO protection for a better pump, as well as supply 40 g of long-lasting carbs to help fuel the workout. Most fruit juices, like pomegranate, are part glucose (for quick energy) and part fructose (a longer-lasting fuel source).
Since pure pomegranate juice can taste tart, dilute it with 16-20 ounces of water or mix it into whey protein. Vanilla- and strawberry-flavored whey powders work well in this NO-boosting muscle-growth concoction.

TweetPomegranate juice is a miracle food. Drink about an ounce every hour or so. That way you dont get a big spike from the sugar. It has a reputation as LIquid Viagra! You can put an ounce or two in a water botttle and then sip it. Yep. Yes, fuzo should take it. Its great. Im never without pom. I would freak out if I ran out lol
TweetIdk how it is else where but its expensive in stores here. I been drinking a small glass with breakfast. I'll have to try it pre-wo. I like to mix about 4oz pom with 4oz cranberry juice. It tastes really good and its a little cheaper.
I love pom juice and orange juice. Thats one of my weaknesses I could drink the whole bottle if I let myself lol. I'm not much for sweets other than juice/fruit and chocalate cake once in a while, I dont have a problem not eating sugar, but we need a little. So I'll have a little with breakfast and pre/.post workout.

TweetI look at it this way, you pay food good quality food or you pay for supps that you don't really know what is in it

TweetThis time of year you can buy the pomegranate seeds too. I load up on those. I dont spend money on drugs or booze so I might as well buy pomegranate. lol. Sams has the best price around here. a 60 ounce bottle of pom goes for $9.99. It lasts about a week or so. That was about what I would spend on one round of drinks back in my bar days lol
TweetThats the problem where i live. There arent any of the bulk food stores anywhere close to me. The grocery stores are quite a bit higher here on things that the average person doesnt buy, ther might be 10 people in this county that try to workout as hard as we do on fg. . Other than bills most of my money does go on food. I'm lucky enough to have a friend that a meat cutter so I get all my protein for cheaper than normal tho.

TweetSweet nvr saw this till now I'm defiantly gonna try this. All I knew is that it was rly good for you..
TweetJust gotta dump 300mgs of caffeine in there

TweetI would much rather see Fuzo using this in his pw instead of Gatorade and red bull. I will pay the extra money and I told him he could do half water so that would lower the sugar amount and the juice would go further. this is the one I buy and I think its about $5 to $6 a bottle
