To start off, I would first like to let you know that Rick Brunner IS Atletika Sport Nutrition. He has also been writing articles for PL USA on a monthly basis that are, in my opinion, only intended to sell Atletica products. I have sent several letters to Mr. Brunner questioning some of his claims, but I never get any answers. Maybe someone on thei list who has a little more knowledge of biochemistry than I do, can answer my questions. In this latest article, Brunner discusses the usefulness of phytochemicals, by powerlifters.
Enzymes are compounds that speed the rate of a chemical reaction.
Almost ALL enzymes are proteins. Next, Mr. Brunner claims that the human body relies on enzymes from outside sources such as plants to keep our bodies functioning properly. He goes on to say that unfortunately, enzymes are very unstable and in fact are easily destroyed by high temperature such as cooking, etc. Again, I am not a biochemist, however this is my understanding. However, the sterols suggested by Mr. Brunner are plant sterols.
