VELOX® is a revolutionary dipeptide combining L-Glutamine and L-Alanine that is more bioavailable than L-Glutamine alone.*

Research suggests that VELOX® may support hydration and exercise performance.* It also stimulates the immune system to support immune health.* VELOX® also promotes the integrity and optimal function of the intestinal barrier.*

A dipeptide is a bonded chain of two amino acids, in this case. L-Glutamine and L-Alanine.  Much smaller than a complete protein, a dipeptide can be transported directly into intestinal cells.  The muscles get nutrients faster because dipeptides are more efficiently absorbed.

Research shows that a combination of L-Alanine with L-Glutamine (VELOX®) has superior absorption, stability and solubility compared to L-Glutamine.*  VELOX is also more bioavailable than L-Glutamine and increases blood leveles of L-Glutamine 224% greater than L-Glutamine alone.*

VELOX® is the result of a novel enzymatic process that bonds two amino acids together naturally, this true dipeptide is much smaller than a complete protein allowing it to be absorbed quickly to aid recovery.*

VELOX® is ideally suited for use in dietary supplements, sports and energy drinks as well as meal replacement mixes and even nutritional bars and yogurts.  Click here for a list of current products that contain VELOX®.
