20/20 Fitness High Protein Ice Cream contains a minimum of 20g of high quality milk protein per serving that contains all essential and non-essential BCAAs.
We have created 20/20 Fitness, an ice cream, that not only offers a high dose of protein but at the same time it keeps fat at levels as low as 2% to provide a healthy dessert.
Sugar intake is a very important factor in any nutrition and diet plan. That is why 20/20 Fitness ice cream uses natural sweeteners and has no added sugar.
Fibre intake is one of the most important factors for keeping a healthy body while at the same time it helps to manage and lose weight.
Research has shown that high-quality proteins, such as milk proteins, promote satiety, weight maintenance, muscle synthesis, and blood glucose control. Additionally a growing body of research shows that a greater intake of protein may increase the rate of muscle synthesis and decrease muscle breakdown, thereby enhancing muscle function and mobility, as well as assisting in the prevention and treatment of certain chronic diseases.
However, not all proteins are equal. High quality, animal sourced proteins, like milk protein, provide all of the 9 Essential Branch Chain Amino Acids (BCAAs) - the building blocks of proteins and muscle tissue - that the body cannot produce on its own, as well as a healthy dose of non-Essential BCCAs.
Dietary protein can increase thermogenesis (the energy required to digest, absorb, and dispose of the nutrients from food) more than carbohydrates and fats and because milk protein promotes muscle mass increase, it leads to a greater caloric expenditure and thus weight management.
A very important benefit of milk protein is that it provides satiety which reduces hunger and promotes healthier eating habits while at the same time reducing blood glucose response and assisting in the control of blood pressure and triglycerides levels.
Athletes and sports enthusiasts care about their body and are very careful about what they eat. That is why we have developed 20/20 Fitness, an ice cream, that not only acts as a functional food that provides multiple health benefits to the body but at the same it keeps fat content at levels as low as 2% so that everyone can enjoy it without feeling any of the guilt that is usually associated with eating a sweet dessert while on a healthy nutrition plan or diet.
It has been well documented over the years that table sugar can be harmful to the human body in a variety of ways. Many sweeteners have been developed to help reduce the use of sugar but most of them are artificial and can have adverse side effects.
20/20 Fitness ice cream is sweetened without the use of added sugar, but instead it uses a proprietary blend of the natural sweeteners Stevia and Erythritol.
Stevia is a natural sweetener that is extracted from the leaves of the plant species Stevia rebaudiana and, in its purified form, it is 250-300 times sweeter than table sugar but has 0 calories per gram. Stevia is not only a low-calorie substitute for table sugar but it also helps to keep the body healthy because it has been shown to reduce blood pressure, improve the function of insulin and reduce blood sugar levels.
Erythritol, a natural sweetener, is a sugar alcohol created from the fermentation of glucose and has a similar sweetness level to table sugar. However, it has almost 0 calories per gram and it doesn't affect blood sugar, insulin levels or dental health.
Dietary fiber, also known as roughage or bulk, isn't digested by the human body - unlike other food components, such as fats, proteins or carbohydrates, which the body breaks down for energy. Instead it passes relatively intact through the body.
Increasing fibre in one's diet can have many positive effects on overall body health. Some of these benefits are:
Helping to maintain bowel health.
Lowering cholesterol levels.
Helping to control blood sugar levels.
Aiding in achieving a healthy weight.
