How Does Access TechnologyWork The Access bars natural adenosine-receptor blockers release the inhibition or protective mechanisms before Adenosine can fill the receptor sites on the white adipose (fat) cells allowing greater fat store utilization for fuel. 1. Greater muscle recruitment 2. Greater intensity of muscle firing 3. Longer duration of aerobic exercise Keeping in mind that adenosine is also known to reduce the utilization of Glucose, which under normal condition is the main source of fuel for muscle. Using glucose as fuel produces lactic acid as the end product. The net benefits from these actions are: 1. More active muscle fibers—generating more power. 2. The better fuel support from burning fat. 3. The formation of lactic acid can be reduced and the onset of anaerobic threshold and fatigue can be delayed. 4. Prolongs duration of intense activity 5. Reduces recovery time due to less end-product accumulation (lactic acid.) The carefully proportion of protein, carbohydrate (simple and complex) and fat in Access technology (patented complex) allows a steady supply of optimal fuels to assist in the continued burning of fatty acids during aerobic activity. Because fat has to be burned in the “flame-of-carbohydrate”, the supply of suitable amount of glucose…without being too high to trigger the release of insulin) is critical in maintaining fatty acid utilization by muscle. This is why it is critical to eat the Access Bar on an empty stomach without any other carbohydrates such as sugar in the coffee or with a soda. The proteins (amino acids) supply approximately 4-10 percent of the energy in exercise and assists in ATP production from glucose and fatty acids. The slow release of glucose, amino acids and fatty acids may also contribute to the feeling of satiation after ingestion of the Access bar because of the physiological action of these nutrients on the hypothalamic centers in the brain. This is another reason why most people who eat an Access Bar for a meal replacement do not have the desire to eat for up to four to five hours. How is the Access Technology Different from the others Due to the fact that the ingredients of the Access bar are seeming typical of many other energy and snack bars, Dr. Wang had to demonstrate to the satisfaction of the U.S. patent Office that the composition and functional usefulness of the Access formulation was drastically and critically different enough to warrant patentability. In Summary: Being a relatively low calorie product (154 Kcal per bar), can exert a surprisingly high degree of energy enhancement for physical activity. The physiological secret is that it helps to burning one’s stored fat, a metabolic reserve that is typically not in shortage among the general population. Even as the mildest form of exercise or activity will require several hundred Kcal per hour, the caloric content of the Access Bar is obviously insufficient to meet such a demand. The fact that each bar can sustain INTENSE activity for two hours or longer is clear indication that stored fuel (fat in particular) must have been accessed in such an endeavor. |
