This 3.5-ounce powder can be used for pre-workout supplementation or even in homemade ice cream, making it a must-have for fitness enthusiasts and culinary adventurers alike. ## Description Whether your main goal is endurance, speed, power or strength, a well hydrated muscle is at the core of your results. Drinking adequate amounts of water, while useful for the average person, will still fall short of hyper-hydration, which is a state of maximized hydration which prevents fatigue, increases strength and prolongs endurance. GMS from LiveLong Nutrition is the most effective solution to the problem of dehydration, and it also offers a unique advantage over sports drinks in that it increases nutrient shuttling, which means increased absorption time and increased results when combining it with ingredients like Creatine Monohydrate. The result? Increased, all-day-long muscle pumps, increased muscle volume leading to increased muscle protein synthesis, and hyper-hydration which decreases fatigue and increases endurance.No one will argue that hydration is essential to good health. A well hydrated muscle cell will outperform its dehydrated counterpart easily. What is less known, except by advanced athletes, is that hyper-hydration can increase performance measurably, by increasing beyond its natural capacity, the ability of a muscle cell to absorb more water. By doing so, two things occur. First, more water is available at a cellular level to help shuttle waste products out of the mitochondria (the engines of the cell) and increase the amount of time until fatigue sets in. Second, it causes an expansion of the muscle cell walls which in turn increases certain processes which increase muscle protein synthesis and increase of sarcoplasmic hypertrophy (the increase of the sarcoplasm to retain volume and size). With GMS, it is possible to achieve a level of hyper-hydration that provides both of these benefits, GMS, or Glycerol Monostearate is a molecule of Glycerol attached to a fatty acid known as stearic acid. When consumed with a large amount of water, GMS forces muscle cells to absorb more fluid than they would otherwise, achieving a level of hydration that no other sports drink or performance aid can deliver.GMS delivers hydration like no other product can. But what sets it even further apart from all other sports drinks and hydration aids has to do with its ability to dramatically increase absorption of nutrients and ingredients such as Creatine Monohydrate, making those nutrients and ingredients work much more effectively and increases the capacity of those cells to retain more of that ingredient than otherwise could be achieved with regular supplementation. If maximum absorption and increased efficacy of the supplements you take is important to you, then adding GMS to your preworkout drink will deliver results!Glycerol Monostearate (GMS) from LiveLong Nutrition delivers performance results through two unique and powerful methods. Increased cellular hydration (recent studies suggest 50% increased intracellular hydration following consumption of GMS) and increased nutrient uptake to the cell (making supplements like Creatine Monohydrate work even better), will give any athlete looking for an edge in their endurance, an increase in strength, and a boost in sarcoplasmic hypertrophy the results they demand! Review: I purchased it for a recipe for a wonderful cake. It worked splendidly - I purchased it for a recipe for a wonderful cake. It worked splendidly, I didn't notice any difference, however in my workouts. I am not an avid athlete, however, so maybe I'm not the right person to rate that. One thing, one of my guests who looked at the jar noted that anyone on high blood pressure meds shouldn't take it. Review: Doesn’t dissolve - This has no directions on mixing or dissolving the granular powder and when mixed with cold water, doesn’t mix at all. It actually acts hydrophobic. I tried mixing with warm water but no better results. Perhaps boiling or hot would work, but who know what that would do to the nutrients, if they would even be there or utilizable anymore. I would return but returning is such a pain, desertcart doesn’t send a box to your house. I think I will start buying online less. A lot of duds lately. ## Features - Supports Hydration - Healthy Endurance Support - Muscle Fullness - Powder 100 grams (3.5oz) - Livelong Nutrition - During the summer months products may arrive warm but desertcart stores and ships products in accordance with manufacturers' recommendations, when provided. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B004FRD7LS | | Age Range Description | Adult | | Allergen Information | Gluten Free | | Best Sellers Rank | #597,465 in Health & Household ( See Top 100 in Health & Household ) #836 in Sports Nutrition Pre-Workout Powders #3,292 in Sports Nutrition Endurance & Energy Products | | Brand | LiveLong Nutrition | | Brand Name | LiveLong Nutrition | | Color | Multi | | Customer Reviews | 3.8 out of 5 stars 95 Reviews | | Dosage Form | Powder | | Flavor | Unflavored | | Item Dimensions | 3 x 3 x 3 inches | | Item Form | Powder | | Item Weight | 4.8 ounces | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 3 x 3 x 3 inches | | Manufacturer | LiveLong Nutrition | | Manufacturer Part Number | 20-45 | | Material Features | Natural | | Model Number | 20-45 | | Number of Items | 1 | | Product Benefits | Hydrating | | Special Ingredients | Amino Acid | | UPC | 609728346300 784922768612 | | Unit Count | 3.5 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** LiveLong Nutrition - **Unit Count:** 3.5 Ounce - **Item Form:** Powder - **Item Weight:** 0.3 Pounds - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 3 x 3 x 3 inches - **Product Benefits:** Hydrating - **Age Range (Description):** Adult - **Number of Items:** 1 - **Dosage Form:** Powder - **Material Feature:** Natural ## Images ![Glycerol Monostearate GMS Powder - Hydration, Endurance, Muscle Pump for Pre Workout.

Can you let me know what the calories per serving are?** A: I am not sure of the calorie count but I believe it will not break your fast. Hope this helps. **Q: What does the powder taste like? Does it taste okay mixed with water only?** A: It has no taste. Only problem is that it doesn’t dissolve in water - or any liquid I tried. You can mix it in a smoothie or just put the scoop directly into your mouth (that’s what I do) and wash it down with water **Q: Is this product plant or animal based?** A: Doesn’t say on packaging ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I purchased it for a recipe for a wonderful cake.
