mg   daily  of   vitamin    C    to  get     the     protec-
tive effect.
The Parrillo Essential Vitamin Formula
and the Parrillo Mineral-Electrolyte For-
mula both supply the antioxidants your
body needs for recovery.
In addition to eating properly and sup-
plementing with antioxidants, there are
other measures you can take to bolster im-
munity so that you’re less like to get sick.
One of these is using a whey-based sup-
plement in your nutrition program. It also
enhances recovery. We have two products
containing whey: Optimized Whey For-
mula (100% whey protein isolate) and our
50-50+ Formula (formulated with whey
protein isolate, calcium casein, milk pro-
tein isolates, and maltodextrin).
