Mein Problem war immer das Aufwachen gegen 1 Uhr. Das Dextrin scheint den Blutzucker echt stabil zu halten. Ich schlafe meistens jetzt bis zum Wecker durch. Ein Stern Abzug, weil ich den Preis recht hoch finde, aber die Wirkung überzeugt.

Our ingredients
At MTM, quality comes first, and that starts with the ingredients.
On this page, you will find an overview of all the nutrients, vitamins, minerals, and amino acids used, from A to Z. Each individual active ingredient is explained: what it is, what function it performs in the body, and what specific benefits it has for your health and performance.
AC
Acetyl-L-carnitine
Acetyl-L-carnitine
Acetyl-L-carnitine is an active form of carnitine that supports energy metabolism in cells. It helps transport fatty acids into the mitochondria, where they are used to produce energy. Acetyl-L-carnitine can therefore promote physical and mental performance and improve recovery after exercise.
Benefits: Energy production, mental performance, regeneration
Arginine
Arginine
Arginine is a semi-essential amino acid that primarily improves blood flow and nutrient supply to the muscles. It serves as a precursor to nitric oxide (NO), which dilates the blood vessels and thus increases blood flow. As a result, arginine not only supports performance during training, but also cardiovascular health.
Benefits: Blood circulation, performance enhancement, heart health
Asparagine
Asparagine
Asparagine is an amino acid that is involved in energy production and metabolism in nerve cells. It plays an important role in the transport and storage of nitrogen in the body. Through its function, asparagine contributes to maintaining mental performance and energy metabolism.
Benefits: Energy balance, nerve function, metabolism
Beta-Alanine
Beta-Alanine
Beta-alanine is an amino acid that promotes the formation of carnosine in the muscles. Carnosine acts as a buffer against acid formation, thereby delaying muscle fatigue during intense exercise. A sufficient intake of beta-alanine can therefore increase endurance, strength performance, and training intensity.
Benefits: Endurance, performance, muscle blood flow
Calcium
Calcium
Calcium is an essential mineral that is indispensable for healthy bones and teeth. It also plays an important role in muscle contraction, blood clotting, and signal transmission in cells. An optimal calcium supply supports muscle and heart function as well as the maintenance of stable bone structures.
Benefits: Bone health, muscle contraction, heart function

Glutamine
Glutamine
Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in the body and plays a central role in regeneration and the immune system. After intense training, glutamine helps prevent muscle breakdown and speeds up recovery. It also supports intestinal health, as it is an important source of energy for intestinal cells.
Benefits: Regeneration, immune system, intestinal health
Glycine
Glycine
Glycine is an amino acid that can gently lower your body temperature – the biological starting signal for sleep. This amino acid promotes deeper sleep phases and simultaneously supports the nightly regeneration of muscles and connective tissue for maximum recovery. Glycine is also involved in liver detoxification.
Benefits: Liver health, regeneration
Histidine
Histidine
Histidine is an essential amino acid that is involved in the formation of hemoglobin and histamine. It supports oxygen supply to cells and plays a role in wound healing and tissue repair. Histidine also helps protect against oxidative stress.
Benefits: Cell protection, regeneration, oxygen transport
Leucine
Leucine
Leucine is the most important amino acid for muscle building, as it directly stimulates protein synthesis. It belongs to the BCAAs and helps to reduce muscle damage after training. Leucine also plays a role in energy production and supports regeneration.
Benefits: Muscle building, regeneration, protein synthesis
Isoleucine
Isoleucine
Isoleucine is one of the three branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs) and plays an important role in muscle building and energy supply. It supports recovery after physical exertion and helps stabilize blood sugar levels. Isoleucine is particularly important for athletes.
Benefits: Muscle building, energy, regeneration
Potassium
Potassium
Potassium is an essential electrolyte that regulates fluid balance and nerve function. It contributes to normal muscle function and stable blood pressure. A balanced potassium level also supports recovery after exercise and heart health.
Benefits: Muscle function, nerve conduction, blood pressure regulation
KM-7 (vitamin K2 all-trans)
KM-7 (vitamin K2 all-trans)
Vitamin K2 in the bioavailable all-trans-MK-7 form supports the activation of proteins that store calcium in bones and teeth. At the same time, it ensures that calcium is not deposited in the blood vessels, thus protecting the heart and circulatory system. In combination with vitamin D3, K2 develops its full effect for stable bones and healthy blood vessels.
Benefits: Bone health, cardiovascular protection, calcium utilization
LP
Lysine
