MAP Master Amino Acid Pattern®
Since 1992

Take MAP® & the sky is the limit!

MAP MASTER AMINO ACID PATTERN®

Since 1992, forty-five published scientific clinical studies, performed on human subjects1-45, have shown and confirmed that the use of MAP Master Amino Acid Pattern® (MAP®), as a substitute for dietary proteins, is:

  • the most nutritious and the most health-preserving

in comparison to any dietary protein, protein supplement, or amino acid formula.

COMPOSITION

MAP Master Amino Acid Pattern® provides a proprietary, unparalleled amino acid formula that contains the unique pattern of essential amino acids, described in U.S. Patent No. 5,132,113, in highly purified, free, crystalline form. MAP® contains only the active ingredient MAP Master Amino Acid Pattern® and does not contain any inactive ingredient or excipient.

Figure 1. Dietary Protein Metabolism

To illustrate: when a dietary protein is digested, it releases its constituent amino acids into the small intestine where they are absorbed. Then, those amino acids can follow either the anabolic pathway (build-up) or the catabolic (breakdown) pathway.

Figure II. The Protein Metabolism Anabolic Pathway

When dietary amino acids follow the anabolic pathway, they act as precursors for the body’s protein synthesis, thus becoming the body’s constituent proteins. Throughout the anabolic pathway, amino acids do not release any nitrogen catabolites or energy.

Figure III. The Protein Metabolism Catabolic Pathway

On the other hand, when dietary amino acids follow the catabolic pathway, they act only as a source of energy and not as precursors of Body’s Proteins Synthesis (BPS). Throughout the catabolic pathway, amino acids do release nitrogen catabolites ( toxic metabolic waste) and energy

INDICATIONS AND USAGE

The use of MAP® is indicated as the most nutritious and the most health-preserving substitute for dietary proteins.

DOSAGE AND ADMINISTRATION

MAP® should be taken orally. The scientific evidence previously described1-4 has shown and confirmed that a MAP® daily dosage of 200 mg/lb of ideal body weight is adequate, as a total substitute for dietary proteins to maintain the Body’s Nitrogen Balance in equilibrium. For instance, to calculate the dosage of MAP® necessary to substitute 10 g of high biological value dietary proteins, proceed as follows:

 

MAP® dosage = [Dietary Protein (g) x 0.4]

 

  1. MAP® dosage = [Dietary Proteins (g) x 0.4]
  2. MAP® dosage = (10 x 0.4) g
  3. MAP® dosage = 4 g

Therefore, 4 tablets (4 g) of MAP® provide a Body Protein Synthesis (BPS) equivalent to that provided by 10 g of dietary proteins with the highest biological value.

Warning: If administering more than 10 tablets per day, increase dosage gradually. (Not more than 10 tablets should be administered within a two-hour period.)

OVERDOSAGE

No adverse reactions have been reported.

ADVERSE REACTIONS

No adverse reactions have been reported.

HOW SUPPLIED

MAP® is available in bottles of 120 tablets of 1,000 mg each for oral administration. Each tablet of MAP® contains only the active ingredient MAP Master Amino Acid Pattern® and does not contain any inactive ingredient or excipient.
