Product info
The World’s Best Post Workout Recovery! A very bold statement, but a statement never the less that’s’ backed up by fact. Growth Matrix is like no other. It’s the only post workout drink to exclusively use very high DH whey protein hydrolysate as its sole source of protein. It’s the highest quality whey protein that’s been extensively treated with enzymes to provide a potent array of di & tri peptides for immediate absorption leading to an almost immediate increase in protein synthesis. This is coupled with an almost impossibly high 7,000mgs of L-Leucine to boost protein synthesis even further; results when combined with the included glucose polymer matrix verge on pharmaceutical. There is a downside though. When science comes first flavour often comes as an afterthought, and since Growth Matrix is at the pinnacle of sports science I’m the first to admit that it really does not taste that great. However if you can stomach the taste, pinch your nose& knock it back, not only will I give you a special reflex medal for your bravery I’ll personally write the cheque to refund your money in full
if you're not totally dumbfounded by the results you’ll experience! James Phillips (Managing Director – Reflex Nutrition)

- Contains creapure creatine volumising muscle cells for maximum absortion
- 7000mg's of added L-Leucine in every serving
- Whey protein source with a very high degree of hydrolysis for optimal absortion and the most comprehensive amino acid profile available in whey protein
- No comprimisation on quality for taste, texture or any other factor
Reflex Nutrition has been making sports nutrition supplements for over 10 years. During those 10 years we have reviewed credible research in relation to intense weight training, supplementation and novel recovery strategies which may stimulate protein/muscle synthesis. Our research and development team have translated recent findings and produced a science based product called Growth Matrix. This exciting development is designed as a "post workout only" supplement that is taken immediately after your workout.
The active compounds found in Growth Matrix have been the focus of countless scientific studies. Growth Matrix is the first commerically available product to use a new type of hydrolysed whey protein.
After trying Growth Matrix you will quickly realise why this may clearly be the most innovative and advanced protein supplement available today.
Growth Matrix contains hydrolysed whey protein with a high degree of hydrolysis.
Hydrolysed whey protein is whey protein that has been treated with enzymes to break the protein down into smaller peptides and amino acids. All hydrolysed proteins generally taste quite bitter; the bitter taste comes from the high percentage of peptides and amino acids. The upside is the fact that your body can absorb peptides much faster than whole proteins. This is exactly what our researchers wanted to achieve in Growth Matrix, fast, almost immediate absorption of nitrogen.- see nutritional info for peptides in molecular weight.
Signalling your muscles via L-Leucine.
Growth Matrix contains a massive 7,000mgs of free form L-Leucine for its ability to initiate biological signalling via mTOR (mammalian target of rapamycin) - in simple terms it's a vital component of Growth Matrix which may trigger increased protein synthesis when combined with hydrolysate protein and carbohydrate when taken after resistance exercise.
Essential electrolytes and glucose polymers.
Intense training leads to a loss of essential electrolytes and a reduction in muscle glycogen stores. Growth Matrix provides 55 grams of glucose polymers and added electrolytes to restore the balance as quickly as possible.
Each tub of Growth Matrix will last nearly 4 weeks if you train 4-5 days a week; one serving is consumed immediately after training.
Growth Matrix is truly state of the art, however the use of high tech nutrients, and the scientific approach, means that the taste is strong. Our research team are well aware of the subjective taste, however they also believe that you will be more than satisfied with the results and therefore the strong taste will be of little consequence.
