WHEY PROTEIN FACTS
- Whey protein is the most essential ingredient in building lean muscle tissue, especially during the post-workout period when muscle cells are most vulnerable and “hungry"
- When the body is exposed to physical stress, such as exercise, whey protein optimizes muscle repair by speeding the time it takes to regenerate muscle tissue, mainly by increasing the antioxidant glutathione.
- Whey protein is a mixture of globular proteins isolated from whey, the liquid material created as a by-product of cheese production
- Most proteins on the market are comprised mainly of whey protein concentrate
- Whey concentrate is the least processed form and cheapest to manufacture, and it contains some fat and lactose.
- Whey concentrates range from 25-80% protein by weight, depending on quality.
- Whey Isolate is the highest quality whey protein available on the market and is the protein of choice labeled for bariatric, diabetic and geriatric use.
- Research shows that whey isolate can augment the growth response to weight-training sessions, reduce body fat and recovery time, and reduce muscle soreness.
- Whey isolate has the highest amount of BCAAs per serving among the different types of protein.
- Whey protein isolate contains the highest level of leucine, which promotes the synthesis of muscle protein and muscle growth.
- Leucine also promotes the loss of fat tissue because of the energy the body needs to process leucine.
- When compared with soy protein isolate, whey protein isolate has 50 percent more leucine.
- Post- Edge™ is the only all-in-one post workout formula that utilizes Cold Processed Cross-Flow Ultra-Microfiltered Whey Protein Isolate, which has the highest amount of BCAAs, is most rapidly absorbed and increases protein synthesis greater than any other protein.
- Research has show that Whey Isolate simultaneously increases amino acid availability and insulin to your muscles (working synergistically with Post-Edge’s Insulin Activation Anabolic Matrix) thereby maximally stimulating muscle protein synthesis and inhibiting muscle protein breakdown.
- Microfiltration is a process to filter out fat, lactose, ash, and larger protein molecules that are more difficult to absorb.
- Post-Edge’s whey protein is micro-filtered through cold process, not ion exchange.
- The ion exchange process selectively depletes many of protein’s subfractions, thereby reducing the overall health value of the protein.
- A better processing method uses low temperatures and low acid conditions to maintain the natural undenatured bioavailable state of the protein.
- Whey protein isolate is the easiest powder to mix without causing lumps in your shaker.
- Whey protein has an anti-oxidant and anti-inflammatory effect, supporting immune function. It has also been found to have anti-cancer properties in studies using rats.
- “Multi-Phase Protein Blends” are a marketing tactic where supplement companies include minimal amounts of quality protein and load it with cheap protein concentrates or junk fillers to cut costs and increase profit margins.
- For example, you could purchase a fancy sounding “30g Multi-Phase Protein Complex.” This means that 29g of this product could be loaded with cheap, low-grade protein concentrates/ junk fillers and only 1g is Whey Isolate.
- Be sure to check the nutrition label to see if the exact grams are listed! If they are not included, it is safe to assume that the amount of whey protein isolate used is minimal. Otherwise, the companies would be proud to list the actual dosages.
- This is a great marketing strategy for these supplement companies since they kill two birds with one stone. By labeling it a “complete multi-phase protein blend” product, they will attract more consumers. By using minimal amounts of quality protein, they cut costs drastically.
- The Net Result: more sales, less costs. These companies have had their day since consumers are now catching on. DO NOT FALL for this trick!
- Some supplement companies incorporate another dirty trick called “nitrogen spiking”, an additional way for companies to cut costs by adding cheaper amino acids like glycine and taurine to increase the overall nitrogen/protein content.
- The only added amino acid included in Post-Edge™ is leucine – the most potent activator of mTOR - which spikes protein synthesis, insulin, IGF-1 & IGF-2, in turn increasing growth hormone (GH) receptor stimulation for muscle growth as well as absorption of glucose, amino acids and creatine into muscle cells (which are depleted during workouts).
- LionEdge Nutrition™ does not hide behind its label. Every serving of Post-Edge™ includes 27.4g of protein and all 27.4g come directly from whey isolate!

POST-EDGE™ ADVANTAGE
- ONLY ALL-IN-ONE POST WORKOUT FORMULA WHICH INCLUDES 7.5G BCAAs WITH 2.5G ADDED LEUCINE IN A 4:1:1 RATIO (VS THE COMMON 2:1:1 RATIO)
- 2.5G ADDED LEUCINE IS 100% PURE VEGAN FERMENTED (NOT MADE FROM DUCK FEATHERS AND HUMAN HAIR)
- FREE OF GMO, MSG, FILLERS, ADDITIVES, DYES, LACTOSE AND GLUTEN
- DISSOLVES RAPIDLY AND COMPLETELY IN WATER
BCAA FACTS
- The branched-chain amino acids, or BCAAs, are the three essential amino acids: leucine, isoleucine, and valine.
- BCAAs (particularly leucine) increase the rate and the cell's capacity for protein synthesis, aiding in muscle recovery and growth, lean mass, and fat loss
- Works synergistically with whey isolate above, which allows even faster absorption to the blood stream during the post-workout period.
- Decrease the amount of mRNA that codes for protein breakdown
- BCAAs are unlike other amino acids in the promotion of muscle growth because they can be metabolized directly into muscle tissue.
- BCAAS are not significantly metabolized by the small intestine or the liver, therefore, reaches the bloodstream very rapidly.
- Leucine potently activates the mammalian target of rapamycin (mTOR) which spikes insulin, IGF-1 & IGF-2, in turn increasing growth hormone (GH) receptor stimulation for muscle growth as well as absorption of glucose, amino acids, and creatine into muscle cells, which are depleted during workouts (working synergistically with Post-Edge’s Insulin Activation Anabolic Matrix and Kre-Alkalyn®).
- BCAAs decrease the catabolic compound cortisol which is a stress hormone that spikes during workouts.
- Cortisol promotes muscle breakdown and fat deposit over time.
- Numerous studies have confirmed that athletes taking BCAAs have significantly less muscle breakdown after exercise and recover more quickly mainly due to the down regulation effect on cortisol.
- Most BCAAs on the market today are derived from duck feathers and human hair. Post-Edge’s 2.5g added leucine is 100% vegetable based and manufactured through natural fermentation. This is process is significantly more expensive but we prefer not to feed our customers duck feathers and human hair.

POST-EDGE™ ADVANTAGE
- INCREASES PROTEIN/BCAA SYNTHESIS, HYDRATION, EXERCISE PERFORMANCE AND RECOVERY
- NATURALLY FERMENTED AND FREE OF GMO, MSG, FILLERS, ADDITIVES, DYES, LACTOSE AND GLUTEN
L-GLUTAMINE FACTS
- Glutamine is a crucial amino acid for building muscle tissue that becomes greatly depleted during intense training.
- This can decrease muscle strength, stamina, recovery and immunity if not adequately restored.
- Helps maintain blood glucose levels and bind nitrogen-containing ammonia molecules between fatigued muscle tissues
- Enabling for cell growth and tissue repair as well as decreasing metabolic acidosis and fighting dehydration
- This explains the faster recovery between workouts with subjects using glutamine
- L-Glutamine works synergistically with leucine to activate mTOR and stimulates anterior pituitary gland to increase plasma growth hormone levels, which enhances lean muscle mass and strength, protein synthesis and improves immunity.
- Plays a key role in protein metabolism, cell volumizing, and anti-catabolism, preventing the breakdown of your muscles.

BETAINE ANHYDROUS FACTS
- An organic vitamin that occurs in plants (mostly beets), derived from choline, which is a dietary component found in protein and fat-containing foods that adds structural integrity to cell membranes.
- Increases growth hormone and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IFG-1) production in response to acute exercise
- Numerous studies have found that Betaine leads to an improved sense of well-being, greater strength and endurance during recovery, and an increase in overall aerobic and anaerobic athletic performance, enhancing muscle power and strength (mainly in squats and bench press).
- A more recent study, reported in a 2013 issue of "The Journal of The International Society of Sports Nutrition,” found that the subjects supplementing with betaine for just 6 weeks increased bench press work capacity, increased muscle mass by 4 pounds and arm size by 10%, and decreased body fat by 7%.
- The placebo group experienced no increase in muscle mass or arm size and no body fat loss.
- Betaine is highly synergistic when taken with creatine. By preventing the production of homocysteine, betaine leads to a higher production of creatine in the body and higher absorption/utilization rate of supplemental creatine because more of it can be used without being broken down.
- Protects heart, kidneys, liver, bones, and intestines, mainly by reducing potentially toxic plasma homocysteine levels.

CREATINE FACTS
- Creatine is a nitrogenous organic acid found naturally in the body which helps to supply energy to all cells in the body, primarily muscle, by increasing the formation of adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
- Found primarily in red meat - one would have to eat roughly 500g of raw meat or fish daily to ingest the optimal amount of creatine. Since this is not realistic, supplementation with creatine is both crucial and advisable for athletes.
- Various studies have shown a significant positive correlation between creatine use and levels of testosterone and IGF, thus resulting in increased muscle growth, strength and recovery, which is why creatine is a crucial ingredient both as a pre and post workout.
- Significant increases in lean body mass, muscle hypertrophy among both fast and slow twitch muscle fibers, and 1 rep max in participants who took the creatine with their post-workout protein/carbohydrate blend
- Studies have linked creatine with decreased levels of myostatin (protein that has catabolic effects on skeletal muscle which limits the growth of muscle)
- Kre-Alkayln® is a 100% stable, multi-patented, ph-buffered creatine monohydrate and is the only creatine monohydrate product with a pH of 12 because its molecules are synthesized with buffering agents using a patented (#6,399,661) manufacturing process.
- Kre-Alkalyn® is significantly more soluble in water than creatine monohydrate, which considerably reduces the probability of waste
- See this for yourself – compare dissolving Kre-Alkalyn® (completely dissipates) and creatine monohydrate in water (forms clumps at the bottom).
- Due to its higher solubility and plasma uptake, the recommended dosage for Kre-Alkalyn® is much lower than that for creatine monohydrate and other creatine products.
- Research has found that less than 3% of the original amount of creatine monohydrate is transported across the intestinal cells within 90 minutes, resulting in:
- Limited uptake of creatine mono. by the intestines and then by the muscles.
- Stomach upset from creatine monohydrate drawing water into the intestines.
- Water retention in the subcutaneous space under the skin which can give the appearance of bloating.
- Since Kre-Alkalyn® is completely soluble in water, virtually none of the Kre-Alkalyn® is converted to creatinine (an unusable byproduct of creatine monohydrate) since it gets straight to the muscle as a result of its high solubility.
- In a double-blind clinical study comparing Kre-Alkalyn® to creatine monohydrate, the Kre-Alkalyn® group experienced an overall average strength increase of 28.25% above those in the unbuffered creatine monohydrate group.
- Since you don't have to cycle off Kre-Alkalyn, you can take it all year long and not risk a plateau (unlike other forms of creatine)
- Much less GI distress and water retention compared to creatine monohydrate and other creatine products.
- Most supplement companies still use creatine monohydrate and other cheaper forms of creatine (usually complexes) due to their much cheaper manufacturing costs.
- Just like the “multi-phase protein blends” a common fad now that companies are using to increase profit margins is selling the consumer creatine complexes with numerous types of creatine. Even if they actually list the amount of each creatine used, do not fall into this trap. If something is shown to be superior, wouldn’t it make sense to just take that form? Companies play off the notion that “more is better” to trick the consumer into thinking “this has to be a superior creatine product if it has 7 types.” If you have strep throat, does the physician treat you with 7 antibiotics or does he/she give you the ONE antibiotic that actually works? Do not fall into this pit that greedy supplement companies use to fool you and potentially negatively impact your health!

L-CARNITRINE L-TARTRATE FACTS
- Naturally produced amino acid found primarily in red meats.
- Enhances nitric oxide (NO) production increasing blood flow and oxygen consumption to muscles, aiding in exercise-induced muscle damage and soreness, and improving muscle repair.
- Carnitine's role in fatty-acid transport into cells' mitochondria for energy production promotes fat loss by enhancing the rate at which your body uses fatty acids for energy production, making it a non-stimulant fat burner.
- Increases insulin sensitivity by requiring insulin for entry into muscle cells
- Increases the amount of androgen receptors in muscle cells, which bind testosterone inside muscle fibers to prompt lean muscle growth and strength.
- A recent study found that during low-intensity cycling, subjects taking L-carnitine burned 55% less muscle glycogen, while increasing fat-burning by 55% compared to subjects who took simple carbohydrates.
- Studies found reduction in LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol), reduction in lactic acid buildup during exercise, and increase in energy levels when using carnitine.

ALPHA-LIPOIC ACID FACTS
- Alpha-lipoic acid is an antioxidant and cofactor for energy, found primarily in green vegetables.
- Synthesized in small amounts by the human body, where it helps turn glucose into energy.
- There have been numerous studies concluding that lipoic acid significantly improves insulin stimulated glucose uptake into muscle cells by increasing the expression of GLUT-4 receptors at the genomic level and increasing translocation of GLUT-4 receptors via its involvement in the insulin-signaling pathway.
- Improves glucose and creatine uptake into muscle cells when it's consumed with simple carbohydrates with a high glycemic index, like Post-Edge’s dextrose.
- Included in some fat-loss products because it reduces the amount of insulin released but increases it’s sensitvity when carbs are eaten, which increases fat burning and reduces hunger.
- A very powerful antioxidant that is able to deactivate both fat and water soluble free radicals and thereby protect both lipoproteins and membranes; no other anti-oxidant can do this.
- Restores vitamin C and vitamin E.
- In clinical studies to date with alpha lipoic acid, there have been no reported serious adverse side effects at recommended dosages.

VITAMIN D3 FACTS
- Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin responsible for enhancing intestinal absorption of calcium, iron, magnesium, phosphate and zinc.
- Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is the active form of Vitamin D.
- Maintains plasma testosterone levels, aiding in muscle strength and fat loss.
- Vitamin D receptors are expressed by insulin-secreting cells of the pancreas, and the results of animal studies suggest that vitamin D plays a role in insulin secretion under conditions of increased insulin demand.
- Crucial for the absorption and metabolism of calcium and phosphorous, which have various functions, especially the maintenance of strong healthy bones.
- Boosts overall immune system and maintains cognitive functions and mood
- Reduces risk of various cancers (mainly breast, prostate, and colorectal cancers) by inducing cell differentiation and inhibiting cell proliferation in various malignant tumor cells. More research is needed to prove direct association.

MAGNESIUM FACTS
- A mineral required for more than 300 enzymatic reactions in the human body, including those involved in the synthesis of fat, protein, muscular contraction and relaxation, cardiac activity and bone metabolism.
- Has a pivotal role in both anaerobic and aerobic energy production, particularly in the metabolism of adenosine triphosphate (ATP) - the energy currency of the body.
- Studies have found that magnesium supplementation positively influences the performance of training athletes by increasing erythrocyte and hemoglobin levels.
- Increases both insulin sensitivity and secretion
- Works synergistically with creatine to increase muscular creatine concentration due to its osmotic effect
- Reduces muscle cramps from lactic acid buildup – resulting in increased muscle strength and recovery process.
- Helps increase sleep quality, which helps optimize plasma human growth hormone levels (primarily secreted during stage 3 non-REM sleep).
- Has anti-acid properties to help alleviate heartburn and indigestion and has had positive outcomes in patients with chronic constipation and migraine/cluster headaches.
- Magnesium deficiency in adults results in altered cardiovascular function (including electrocardiographic abnormalities) impaired carbohydrate metabolism due to insulin resistance and decreased insulin secretion, and higher blood pressure.
- Often deficient in athletes due to increased requirements (increased ATP turnover during strenuous exercise).

CHROMIUM FACTS
- Chromium is an essential mineral deficient in more than 90% of U.S. adults.
- Chromium polynicotinate is more effective than any other type of chromium, as it binds the elemental chromium to niacin (vitamin B3). This provides a biologically active, more absorbable form of chromium.
- A cofactor for insulin, which helps support healthy blood glucose levels and plays an important role in the proper utilization of protein, fat and carbohydrates.
- A number of clinical studies have shown that nutritional supplementation with chromium helps improve insulin function, which can impact muscle growth and fat loss, as well as increasing lean body tissue.
- Helps reduce LDL (bad cholesterol) and increase HDL (good cholesterol).
- Clinical trials have found chromium to be effective in improving energy levels as well as mood in depressed patients.
- Often deficient in athletes due to increased requirement.

KRE-CELAZINE® FACTS
-
- Kre-Celazine® is a “non-drug” patented ingredient that has been clinically shown to help reduce pain and promote joint flexibility and mobility along with reducing inflammation.
- Kre-Celazine® is a complex material consisting of bonding Kre-Alkalyn® (US Patent 6,399,661) with esterified fatty acid carbons.
- The esterifying process makes the fatty acid stable so it does not react with oxygen. (This is not esterified creatine, the fatty acids have been esterified).
- Kre-Celazine® was granted Orphan Drug status in the treatment of Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis by the FDA in 2013.
- Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis (JIA) is a complex, chronic childhood autoimmune inflammatory disease.
- Like rheumatoid arthritis in adults, joint and soft tissue destruction is relentless, except that this inflammation can begin when the patient is as young as a one-year old infant.
- In the clinical study published by LIEBERT, participants (ranging 7 to 17 years , who had been suffering from longstanding JIA, despite their use of chronic anti-inflammatory prescription medication) received two 750 mg capsules (total, 1,500 mg) of Kre-Celazine® to be taken daily for a period of 30 consecutive days. These patients experienced:
(a) significant reduction or elimination of palpable inflammation
(b) renormalization of range of motion
(c) reduction/absence of perceived pain
(d) renormalization of blood values for C-reactive protein and Erythrocyte Sedimentation rate. - Based on the study results reported above, as well as those of a previous study published by JANA (Journal of the American Nutraceutical Association) using arthritic adults (Golini J, et al. 2009), Kre-Celazine® is a moderately effective non-prescription drug for the reduction of pain and stiffness of the extremities, neck, knee and shoulder regions in humans.
- Kre-Celazine® delivers a quad core of critical mechanism factors.
- Core Factor 1: Supports Cellular Integrity.
- Kre-Celazine® supports the integrity of cellular membranes to enhance their function with a precision blend of specialized lipids.This enables cell membranes to better repel stressors and offer greater cellular protection.
- Core Factor 2: Reduces Inflammation
- Plays a role in suppressing inflammation by reducing COX-2 enzyme, by inhibiting pro-inflammatory arachidonic acid and by helping to reduce the production of the inflammatory signaling Interleukin 6 molecule.
- Core Factor 3: Restore and Support Optimal pH
- The alkalizing power of Kre-Celazine® helps get your body working in a state that may be likened to a “greenhouse effect.”
- This is a pH where your body’s cells and biological systems work in perfect harmony to function, grow, and recover optimally.
- Core Factor 4: Support Muscle Energy and Strength
- Kre-Celazine® features Kre-Alkalyn® (US Patent 6,399,661), a premium form of alkalinized pH-stable and soluble creatine.
- Supplemental creatine, like Kre-Alkalyn®, may boost the muscles’ stores of creatine. In turn, this may allow for greater exercise potential and muscle stimulation that can strengthen muscles, like those around joints.
- Core Factor 1: Supports Cellular Integrity.

GINGER FACTS
- The spice ginger is the natural underground rhizome of the ginger plant, known botanically as Zingiber officinale, used in many countries as a spice and condiment to add flavor to food.
- Ginger has a very potent anti-inflammatory effect which has been shown to reduce muscle pain after intense physical activity.
- During the past 40 years, many studies have provided scientific support for the long-held belief that ginger contains potent anti-inflammatory properties; the original discovery of ginger's inhibitory effects on prostaglandin biosynthesis in the early 1970s has been repeatedly confirmed.
- Ginger suppresses prostaglandin synthesis through inhibition of cyclooxygenase-1, cyclooxygenase-2 and 5-lipoxygenase.
- A University of Miami study compared the effects of ginger extract to placebo in 247 patients with osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee. The ginger reduced pain and stiffness in knee joints by 40 percent over the placebo.
- Researchers at the University of Georgia in Athens and Georgia State College & University in Milledgeville reported in the Journal of Pain that a few tablespoons of grated ginger can help ease muscle pain caused by exercise.
- If the anti-inflammatory properties of ginger mentioned above aren’t enough, ginger also has insulinoptropic properties through the 5-HT3 receptor channel, increasing plasma insulin secretion up to 10%, working synergistically with LionEdge’s Insulin Activation Anabolic Matrix.
- Ginger has staring potential for treating a number of ailments including degenerative disorders (arthritis and rheumatism), digestive health (indigestion, constipation and ulcer), cardiovascular disorders (atherosclerosis and hypertension), vomiting, diabetes mellitus, and cancer.
- It also has anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative properties for controlling the process of aging.

BROMELAIN FACTS
- Bromelain belongs to a group of natural protein digesting enzymes obtained from the fruit or stem of pineapple.
- Research has shown that bromelain has anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties
- Bromelain's action as an anti-inflammatory is mediated via the following factors: reducing plasma fibrinogen levels, decreasing bradykinin levels (which results in reduced vascular permeability and hence reducing edema and pain), decreasing levels of PGE2 and thromboxane.
- Bromelain was first reported to be of value as an analgesic and anti-inflammatory for use in both rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritic patients in 1964.
- Ten studies have been identified that have assessed bromelain in osteoarthritis of the knee, most of which indicated that the use of bromelain had positive clinical effects (as measured by assessment of reduction in soft tissue swelling, pain and/or joint stiffness) and no adverse events associated with the medication were reported in any of these case reports.
- In a blinded study from Germany, researchers divided 90 patients with painful osteoarthritis of the hip into two groups: one half receiving bromelain for six weeks, while the other half received the anti-inflammatory drug diclofenac. They found that the bromelain preparation was as effective as diclofenac in standard scales of pain, stiffness and physical function, and better tolerated than the drug comparator.
- Bromelain helps break down and digest protein, working alongside LionEdge’s Absorption Enhancing Matrix.
- Bromelain accounts for many therapeutic benefits including the treatment of angina pectoris, inflammatory bowel disease, sinusitis, surgical trauma, debridement of wounds, and enhanced absorption of drugs, particularly antibiotics.

STEVIA FACTS
- Stevia is a natural sugar substitute made from plant leaves of species Stevia rebaudiana.
- Used as a non-sugar sweetener because it does not have any calories or increase blood sugar like most natural and artificial sweeteners and provides numerous health benefits.
- pH and heat stable; non-toxic and non-additive
- Research has shown that stevia can:
- regulate blood sugar by increasing insulin sensitivity
- reduce blood pressure
- reduce inflammation
- reduce LDL (bad cholesterol)
- offer anti-carcinogenic properties
- improve digestion and offer anti-diarrheal properties
- help increase immunity mainly by inhibiting growth and reproduction of bacteria
- protect the kidneys mainly by regulating blood sugar
- improve skin appearance
- Extensive reviews of human and animal data indicate stevia to be safe.

Velositol: Significant Results With Just One Dose
Muscle protein synthesis (MPS) is the process that creates muscle growth and recovery. Just a single dose of Velositol added to protein is clinically shown to increase MPS significantly more than protein alone. This is key for improving lean body mass and faster muscle recovery.
Clinical study results showed that Velositol:
- significantly increased MPS versus protein alone (p<0.05)
- doubled the power of protein after just a single dose*
- was shown to create a small, non-significant increase in insulin levels
- demonstrated no change to blood glucose levels over control
*Velositol was studied in a randomized, double-blind, single-dose, active-controlled crossover study in which participants were given a single dose of Velositol with 6 grams of protein or 6 grams of protein alone, and completed eight sets of leg extensions up to 80 percent of their estimated maximum. Study visits and muscle biopsies were done to measure MPS over an eight hour time period. MPS was measured by calculating the fractional synthesis rate (FSR).
Best In Class Taste!
Not only did LionEdge Nutrition create the highest quality and most bioavailable Post Workout protein, we took it to the next level by formulating the best tasting protein on the market with non-clumping milk-shake texture and industry first, blueberry muffin ice cream flavor with REAL freeze dried blueberry pieces!
Our brand has spent a substantial amount of time and effort working closely with compound flavoring pharmacists and award winning flavoring experts to ensure that every container of Post-Edge™ delivers the mouthwatering gourmet taste you will crave workout after workout. Flavoring supplements is a lot easier when using high amounts of sugar and fillers. However, Post-Edge is sugar free with only 3g Net Carbs and free of all fillers.

Best protein profile I’ve ever seen has everything you need and more especially if you’re a competitive bodybuilder like myself!

I was very intrigued with this 9 in 1 concept since I’ve never seen that in a protein powder. Let’s just say the results speak for themselves and I’m never going back to my Costco protein powders again….

Maurice B –
I like that all the ingredients are disclosed and taste is good

Has everything I possibly need post workout which is the most important time to take protein or any supps for that matter. Very well thought out product put out by LionEdge and look forward to trying more products from this brand.

Best pwo ever made. Both flavors were really good. The results I achieved reflected the Profile ingredient. I’ve been a trainer for decades and I know my supplements. Post edge is worth every cent!

Absolutely love Post Edge!!! I use it daily…. Not only has it helped with my recovery time but I get headaches/migraines from time to time and since I have been using Post Edge I haven’t had any issues. Now I know everyone is different with results but to me this product is amazing and I will continue to use it specially being in S’mores flavors it’s delicious… Can’t wait to try the new Blueberry Muffin.

Oscar –
This product is just what I was looking for. So glad it is all in one thing I got to take!
Kevin –
I suffer from chronic joint pain from years of lifting and arthritis. Since this product has anti-inflammatories and made by medical doctors, I decided to give it a try. While I still have this pain, Post Edge has without a doubt helped reduce my joint pain and aches and I find myself talking less Tylenol and Advil as a result. For this very reason, Post Edge is my new favorite protein!
Thomas –
Post Edge is an awesome PWO!! Been following LionEdge for a few months and it’s my favorite supplement company alongside Jym Supplement Science. Look forward to more products!
Matthew –
Mixes smooth. Tastes smooth. Digests smooth. And recover smooth! Love this PWO
Kevin –
Mixed well and helped me recover with my workouts. Had a little bitter after taste which is why I didn’t give this 5 stars. Taste could be a little better IMO but overall a good product.
Stacy –
I’m lactose intolerant and usually only do vegan proteins. Being Post Edge is sugar, soy, gluten and lactose free, I decided to give it a try. Not only did it mix and dissolve very well, I did not have any issues with indigestion. You defintely get what you pay for with this product and I will be purchasing again!
Daniel –
Love this product! This is my 3rd time reordering. Never had results like this with other products. Love the anti-inflammatories! Thank you LionEdge!
William –
Hands down the best post workout I’ve tried! The ingredient profile speaks for itself. I don’t feel as sore after my workouts and I’ve noticed less issues with muscle fatigue and cramping since adding Post Edge to my regimen. got a couple of guys from my football team to try this and they also love it
Chad –
Awesome product, love that it replaces many things I was taking. Makes my life a lot easier! I also like that it contains Kre-alkalyn. It is my favorite form of creatine. Please make a peanut butter chocolate flavor! =)
Kim –
Wow I love this product. I am a personal trainer and know that these ingredients do work! I have never found another recovery product quite like this one. I recommend mixing Postedge with just cold water 16 ounces or so. Only 100 calories who can beat that right?
Leo –
This protein I got on Black Friday. I been taking it a few times. I like the flavour. I am impressed it made by real doctors. T-shirt was nice too!
Jessica –
Love this s’mores flavor! Love mixing it in my Nutribullet for a quick on the go breakfast alternative. I mix it with bananas and other fruits. I find it refreshing especially with cold water and a few ice cubes. Defintely notice the difference in my recovery. For sure not as sore after legs days!
Sean –
I recently watched your interview and was very impressed that real physicians formulated this product. Just received my Post Edge tub and LionEdge t-shirt in the mail today and I am impressed with the packaging and speedy delivery. The shirt is pretty sick too! The powder tastes and mixes great, just drank some with ice cold water. Will keep everyone updated on my results!
Katie –
What can I say? It mixed great, didn’t make me feel bloated, is gluten and lactose free, helped me recover faster and it tastes great! Ordering more today! Hope you guys come out with more flavors!
Kyle –
I love that fact that this product is actually physician formulated. Obviously this transparency trend has been strong in the supplement industry, but it’s nice to see it taken to the next level. The science on this product is solid and the amount of ingredient put into this thing is off the charts. It really is a complete post workout and then some. One of my favorite things about this product is the probiotics! Gut health is essential and it’s nice to see this added. It also definitely helps with the digestion of total protein I eat in the day. That alone is a 60.00 product at vitamin shoppe! I would highly recommend this product. I enjoy it multiple times a day. Post workout I typically take the recomended 2 scoops and after my second workout I do 50/50 split of PostEdge and Whey protein. For someone who trains hard and needs to recover this product is perfect!
Greg –
I’m always skeptical with new products but man Post Edge really works! I could clearly see the difference in my recovery periods and even noticed increases in my lifts. You will definitely get your moneys worth with the results you get. I really enjoy the s’mores flavor. It mixes very well with just water and I haven’t had the usual stomach issues I’ve gotten with many other protein supplements I’ve tried. Very happy I decided to give Post Edge a try and looking forward to ordering more.
Chris –
Post Edge is pretty effective at preventing muscle soreness after my workouts, especially the day after. I have noticed some increased strength too during my lifts, and a shorter recovery period. Mixes and tastes great also. Hoping this company launches more products!
Ben –
I won a tub in a contest and will continue to use this as my post workout from here on out. By far the best postworkout I have ever used and it is actually one you can feel confident about putting into your body. I can’t wait to order more.
Gerry –
If you are looking for a new post workout that will replace a lot of your other supplements, look no further. Post Edge has all that and more! And it tastes amazing!
