Most bodybuilders who are seriously interested in seeing their body mass grow and their muscles become significantly stronger care deeply about the quality of the nutritional supplements they take. One supplement manufacturer many of them prefer is Pinnacle, owned by Bodyonics.

The company is extremely well-credentialed. Pinnacle Institute, its research arm, maintains a state-of-the-art laboratory equipped with separate areas for phlebotomy, general medical examinations, and bone density and body composition testing, as well as sections for aerobic and anaerobic, strength, and metabolic testing. Phoenix Laboratories, Bodyonics’ sister corporation, has manufactured nutritional supplements for several of the largest wholesalers in the natural products channel.

Pinnacle manufactures supplements especially for bodybuilders as well as several for enhancing sexual function. Among its bodybuilding supplements are:

Isomer-E
A natural, full-spectrum vitamin E supplement, Isomer-E delivers the entire range of vitamin E isomers in a patent-pending formulation intended to boost antioxidant protection against free radicals, help maintain healthy cardiovascular and immune systems, and support prostate, eye, skin, and mental health.

Alpha Dopa
Pinnacle created Alpha Dopa, a plant-based human growth hormone (HGH ) secretagogue, to support protein synthesis, enhance lean body mass, and reduce body fat. The natural secretagogues in Alpha Dopa may support your body’s ability to stimulate HGH release, which in turn can spur muscle growth.

NoX2
A natural vasodilator suitable for enhancing physical fitness, NoX2 contains natural myodilators that may help boost nitric oxide (NO) levels in the body. This in turn increases blood flow, oxygen transport, and nutrient delivery to skeletal muscle, and it may also help your muscles experience an extended pump.

Pyruvate 1000
Pyruvate 1000 supplies pyruvate, an end product of our bodies’ natural energy metabolism that has been extensively researched for more than 25 years. Clinical studies reveal that pyruvate can promote 37 percent greater weight loss and 48 percent greater fat loss, and studies at a leading U.S. medical school research center revealed that subjects taking pyruvate experienced less fatigue during prolonged exercise and were able to improve performance levels by 20 to 50 percent.

AnabolX Plus
Pinnacle developed AnabolX Plus for bodybuilders who want to use nonhormonal substances to optimize their bodies’ natural production of testosterone. Women can safely use AnabolX without any of the concerns normally associated with testosterone-boosting supplements.

NoX2 Overnight Xtender
Designed to optimize muscle-building myodilation during sleep, NoX2 Overnight Xtender contains the amino acid citrulline, a precursor to arginine used by the body to produce NO.

Esterified Creatine 4000
According to Pinnacle, its new rapid-release Esterified Creatine 4000 helps deliver creatine to muscle cells quickly and completely.

Shredded Mass
Pinnacle says its patent-pending compound, Shredded Mass, is the only fat-burning creatine on the market today.

Fuse
Fuse is what the company calls a “multitasking bodybuilding phenomenon” and contains the proprietary compound Penta-Hydroxy GlucoPyranoside, a formulation Pinnacle says boosts natural testosterone production and increases lean muscle growth by 300 percent and baseline strength by 58 percent, while at the same time decreasing body fat by at least 25 percent.

PermMax Creatine 4000
PermMax Creatine 4000 is designed to improve circulation up to an extraordinary 40 percent in order to aid delivery of creatine to muscle tissue.

PermMax Amino Explode
The advanced delivery system of PermMax Amino Explode helps increase muscle protein synthesis from 400 percent to 600 percent.

Judging from these precisely targeted products, you can be certain Pinnacle supplements are made from the highest-quality ingredients that scientists have determined to be the most effective.
