MusclePharm Corporation (OTCBB:MSLP), one of the fastest growing nutritional supplement companies in the United States, reported recently that the National Association of People with AIDS (NAPWA) has requested the approval of MusclePharm’s Recon nutritional supplement to the New York State Medicaid list of prescription medications.
MusclePharm’s Recon Nutritional Supplement contains important amino acids, assisting in reaching the higher levels of nutrition required for people living with HIV. MusclePharm’s Recon Nutritional Supplement is easily digestible and helps the absorption of amino acids and proteins. It contains essential minerals, digestive enzymes, Glutamine and other metabolic agents that maximize recovery, protein synthesis and endurance.
“We are honored with the NAPWA’s support of therapeutic nutritional supplementation and look forward to the day when MusclePharm’s Recon is available to people living with HIV in New York State and all of those who depend on Medicaid for their therapeutic needs,” stated Brad Pyatt, MusclePharm’s Chief Executive Officer. “Our safe and scientific product formulations provide unique opportunities for us to expand MusclePharm’s distribution within the medical community. We believe this increased support continues to position MusclePharm as one of the leading developers and manufacturers of nutritional supplements.”
Nutritional Supplementation has long been utilized within the HIV community to maintain and support muscle mass and help strengthen the immune system. Whey protein has been shown thru various credible studies to aid in the growth of muscle mass. Unlike other Medicaid available proteins, MusclePharm’s Recon helps to burn fat while building muscle. This is a factor essential to people living with HIV, especially those on antiviral regimens where unwanted fat may be an issue in those who often battle muscle depletion.
