ARX is a foundation for greater performance. This complex endurance supplement is not going to give you a quick boost or a sugar high. Instead, by taking it every day, you can change your physiology for greater endurance, strength, speed, and faster muscle recovery. No matter what level you start at, ARX helps get you to that next level—keep taking it and you’ll continue to achieve more and more.

A closer look at exactly how ARX works:

ARX’s unique combination of ingredients helps to clear lactate from the bloodstream faster and circulate it to the rest of the body so that it can be used as an additional fuel source for exercise and other energy demands, improving your performance and reducing muscle recovery time. The old school of thought was that when lactate accumulated in your muscles, it hindered performance and directly led to muscle fatigue and soreness, slowing muscle recovery. Now we know that’s simply not right. New scientific evidence dispels this theory by showing that lactate is one of the body’s preferred fuels. And ARX makes easy work out of the process of getting this premier fuel back into your cells so you can work harder with easier muscle recovery.

Up close and personal with lactic acid:

Lactic acid is naturally produced in the body but especially during exercise when the muscles are working hard under low oxygen conditions. As lactic acid builds up in the muscle cells, it moves into the bloodstream, where a hydrogen proton splits off, leaving lactate.

Lactate enters the bloodstream and travels to the liver where it is used to create fuel. Through a process known as gluconeogenesis, the liver converts lactate into pyruvate which is then used to create glucose which is used by all the cells in the body and burned in the mitochondria to create ATP.

During exercise, the body preferentially uses glucose for its energy demands, however when glucose stores are depleted, the body taps into glycogen, its energy reserves stored in the muscles. When glycogen is gone, it next uses lactate as a fuel. Only when all of these are gone, does the body begin to break down muscle tissue (to release amino acids) for its energy demands.

Because ARX helps the body better use lactate, it refuels your body and keeps you working out longer, performing better and increases your stamina and endurance.

In a nutshell, the ARX endurance supplement combination does two things to increase performance and stamina:

First, ARX increases microcirculation in the muscles, improving the distribution of oxygen to the body (to keep the energy processes in the body going) while also removing waste products, such as lactate, and redistributing it so it can be utilized for fuel. This is where the triple mushroom blend comes into the formula—cordyceps*, reishi, and enoki. It’s important to understand that you can’t simply add the mushrooms to your diet and expect results. You need the precise balance of specific extracts from these mushrooms. And only ARX gives you this balance.

*Note: Cordyceps caught the attention of the athletic community in the early 1990s when Chinese women runners shattered several world records in distance running, with the aid of a cordyceps based endurance supplements that improved their breathing while they ran. This spurred controversy and skepticism at the time—critics and other athletes began questioning what exactly these women were ingesting or how they had altered their training. What it ultimately led to was Dr. Morrissey’s team seeing promise in other mushrooms and researching extracts from the fruits and the stems. These preliminary investigations led to determining the precise combination for ARX.

Second, ARX enhances the immune system, which is key to having good energy. This is where the eleuthero and tangerine come into play.

Eleuthero is an adaptogen that helps your body overcome the effects of stress. Tangerine is one of the key supportive ingredients in the formula. It removes stagnation in the digestive system, which often happens when people exercise. This explains the stomach cramping that can happen when we exercise vigorously. Only orange tangerine peel is used, not the green which has a complete different effect in the body.

ARX also helps you recover faster and reduces soreness. By taking ARX, it allows your body to use the fuels it prefers—glucose and lactate— and in turn, reduces the break down of your muscles for energy. This means less soreness even after an exerting workout, allowing you to recover faster and minimize your down time.
