Stoixeion Spotlight: Frequently Asked Questions

Why did you research, design and formulate Stoixeion when there are so many supplements already on the market?

 

As over 50 active, healthy adults we could not find a supplement on the market that met our needs that made sense scientifically for:

  • Ergogenic aid (gives a mental or physical edge while exercising or competing)
  • Aging well support 
  • Molecular Wellness™ / Protein Health™

 

What do you mean by Molecular Wellness™ / Protein Health™?

 

The ingredients in Stoixeion have been synergistically combined to enhance performance at the molecular level and to support Protein Health™. Stoixeion was formulated by a PhD in Chemistry who handpicked each ingredient so that it balances and enhances the biochemistries underlying energy production, vasculature, endurance and recovery. 

 

Although there is more to it, one of the hallmarks of aging is accumulated Cellular damage that occurs at the molecular level – i.e., products of oxidative stress and glycation screwing up the machinery of your body. 

 

Part of this damage goes towards decreasing cell membrane integrity (e.g., important for mitochondria – where energy production occurs) and improper production and function of enzymes (e.g., needed to produce the chemicals involved in energy production). The net result is that essential chemical systems can get out of balance through leakage or inadequate production of needed chemicals.

 

The bottom line? 

 

The compounds in Stoixeion are antioxidative and anti-glycation properties that help aging cells perform better. It helps you wake up with more energy, achieve greater strength and helps your body reach its self-healing potential.

 

Are the ingredients scientifically proven effective?

 

Over 200 PubMed references are available upon request and included in the bonus ebook you receive when you place an order. We tell you exactly what is in Stoixeion — no mystery “proprietary blends”.

 

How quickly can I expect to feel a difference with Stoixeion? 

 

Energy levels can improve in a day; chemical defense improvement takes time and consistent use. 

 

Where is Stoixeion manufactured?

 

Our manufacturing partner is located in the USA and is:

 

FDA Registered – FDA stands for the Food and Drug Administration, a government agency responsible for the safety of food, dietary supplements, human drugs, vaccines, blood products and other biologicals, medical devices, radiation-emitting electronics, cosmetics, veterinarian products and tobacco products being sold or manufactured in the United States. The FDA also inspects and enforces regulations related to these industries.

 

Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) Certified – GMP is a system for ensuring that products are consistently produced and controlled according to quality standards. It is designed to minimize the risks involved in any pharmaceutical production that cannot be eliminated through testing the final product.

 

Who’s the scientist that formulated Stoixeion?

 

Dr. Nelson, ExecLevel Wellness Co-founder, received his doctorate in Analytical Chemistry from Arizona State University in 1990, and has published >110 peer-reviewed manuscripts, and given >100 invited talks at national and international conferences, all regarding biological mass spectrometry and biomarker development/translation. He is inventor or co-inventor on approximately 50 domestic and foreign patents covering mass spectrometric technologies and methods, and protein biosignatures related to disease. Over his career, he secured approximately $20 million in federal (NIH) and industrial funding.

 

Dr. Nelson’s research is focused on understanding changes in biosignatures as individuals transit from healthy – to – type 2 diabetes (T2D) – to cardiovascular disease (CVD); research that was directed at integrating biosignatures into (T2D/CVD) drug discovery and was undertaken as part of a research network including the Veterans Administration, the University of Arizona and industrial strategic partners such as Thermo Fisher Scientific, Johnson & Johnson and Pfizer Inc.

 

 

How do I take Stoixeion? 

 

With or without food, in a smoothie or in another beverage, add in flavoring if you wish – the peach tea flavor is very mild and mixes well with other things as well as tastes good on its own.

 

When do I take it? 

 

As a pre-workout or in the morning for sustained energy throughout the day; however it can be taken later in the day without impacting your sleep because there is no caffeine. It’s a personal preference as to when the best time to take it is.

 

How do I travel with it? 

 

TSA allows for powders to be taken in your carry-on or checked baggage but always check current regulations 

 

How long do I take it? 

 

Stoixeion is meant to be taken every day and on a consistent basis to maintain balanced biochemical pathways and best results. Like good nutrition, best results accumulate over time.

 

How much do I take? 

 

Start with ½ scoop and progress to I full scoop 

 

What is the tingle?! 

 

Some people experience an unusual sensation typically described as “tingling of the skin.” It’s usually experienced in the face, neck and back of the hands. Don’t worry, it’s a totally normal reaction to beta alanine and will subside with continued use. If it is bothersome, start with a half scoop dosage and work up to a full scoop.

 

What is the role of sodium bicarbonate in Stoixeion, and how does it fit in with concerns about sodium intake?

 

Sodium bicarbonate, commonly known as baking soda, plays a significant role in the Stoixeion formula. It serves as a buffer to maintain the optimal pH balance within the body during periods of extended exercise or stress. Research has shown that sodium bicarbonate can help counteract the decrease in pH caused by factors like lactic acid buildup during high-intensity and endurance exercises.

 

Concerns about sodium intake are understandable, especially for individuals aiming to limit their sodium consumption. However, it’s important to note that the sodium content in Stoixeion is carefully considered and balanced. The inclusion of sodium bicarbonate is primarily intended for pH balance, but also enhances the formula’s digestibility and minimize stomach discomfort, as well as to provide a mildly effervescent experience when mixed with water.

 

In the context of sodium intake, it’s worth mentioning that the sodium content of Stoixeion is not excessive and is designed to complement a balanced diet. Studies suggest that controlled sodium intake can be a part of an overall healthy lifestyle, and the sodium present in Stoixeion aligns with this principle.

 

Rest assured, our formulation takes into account both the benefits of sodium bicarbonate in supporting performance and its contribution to the overall balance of the product. We encourage you to consult with your healthcare provider if you have specific concerns about sodium intake or dietary choices.
