Piacio® Fitness
Anabolic Nighttime Rest & Superior Muscle Recovery
The biological response to oxidative stress caused by training – your key to supercompensation.
Piacio® Fitness
Biological basis
Sleep as the key to muscle recovery. Maximum recovery for increased muscle growth.
Muscle growth, supercompensation, and tissue/cellular repair are sleep-dependent processes that occur primarily during deep sleep. Piacio optimizes the body’s nocturnal ‘anabolic window’ by creating the biological conditions required for efficient protein synthesis and by initiating physical recovery after high-intensity training sessions (HIIT) through the reduction of neuronal activity.
Functional Properties of Piacio®

Pistachio extract as a plant-based alternative to synthetic melatonin.

Can be used in formulations to promote deep sleep phases.
Recovery Support
For post-workout recovery after strength, HIIT, and endurance training.
Post-Workout Stress Reduction
