Sports Nutrition that Fuels Your Fitness

Introducing Swanson Full Potential, an expertly crafted line of new and innovative protein supplements and workout support products designed with you in mind. From pre- to post-workout, the science-backed ingredients in these products have been hand-selected to give you the nutrition and protein you need for general wellness, or for an edge in the gym or on the field.

Whether you’re into intense workouts or simply looking to enjoy a more active lifestyle, the protein and amino acids in these supplements play a crucial role in overall wellness and long-term strength. Protein is critical to maintaining lean muscle mass as part of a healthy aging process, providing not only the basic building blocks of muscle tissue, but also delivering the healthy caloric energy needed for physical activity at any age.

What Are Protein Supplements?

Protein supplements are crafted to provide your body with the nutrients needed to power physical activity and build strong muscles. In fact, every cell of your body contains protein, making this nutrient especially important for wellness at a cellular level. From infancy to later adulthood, protein is a primary building block necessary for proper development and maintenance of core strength as a part of healthy aging.

Protein can be sourced from animals, in the form of whey or casein from cow or goat milk, or it can come from plant sources like hemp, peas or yeast. These whey, vegetarian and vegan protein supplements are therefore designed to give you the option of getting the form of protein that’s just right for you from the source that suits you best.

Protein supplements may deliver protein alone, but for superior results, look for those featuring Velositol®. This patented amylopectin chromium complex works together with protein to boost muscle protein synthesis. With that added support, your body will be better able to form lean muscle mass and recover quicker after activity.

Let’s consider some other benefits of protein supplements.

Benefits of Protein Supplements

While it is preferable that we get our daily recommended levels of protein from food, modern diets may not provide adequate levels of protein. That’s where protein supplements can deliver benefits by plugging any nutritional gaps which may exist.

This is important for everyone, whether you’re just trying to incorporate more activity into your daily routine or are an intense athlete. That’s because protein is a critical component in growth and development, organ health (brain, heart and even skin) and in supporting a healthy immune system.1

In both the immediate and long term, protein supplements deliver benefits such as promoting the formation of lean muscle mass in addition to helping preserve muscle strength as a part of the aging process. Furthermore, as athletes require additional protein synthesis and energy support, protein supplements make perfect sense for reaching fitness goals quicker.3

What are Pre-Workout Supplements?

Swanson Full Potential pre-workout supplements feature potent and science-backed ingredients designed to increase your success during activity. Ingredients like caffeine anhydrous can help provide energy and cognitive focus during workouts or exercise. You may also look for ingredients that support healthy blood flow to deliver oxygen and other important nutrients to your muscles.

Swanson Full Potential pre-workout supplements feature Nitrosigine®, a science-backed blend of L-arginine and silicon, to support nitric oxide levels and blood flow during exercise. Our line also includes coconut water to deliver essential electrolytes to help your body stay hydrated during activity—an important part of enhancing performance and endurance. These and other ingredients can provide the power you’re looking for to boost your pre-workout.

What Does a Pre-Workout Supplement Do?

Pre-workout supplements are designed to serve specific functions as part of an exercise routine. First, they provide energy to help boost performance and endurance during activity. Secondly, pre-workout supplements help you stay focused on the field or in the gym so you can achieve better results from each session. Finally, quality pre-workout supplements, like the Swanson Full Potential line, are crafted to shorten recovery time so you can get back in the game stronger and faster.2

The benefits of pre-workout supplements can last beyond your workout as these and other targeted nutritional ingredients make it easier for you to reach and maintain your fitness goals for increased strength, power and mobility.
