Product Rationale RSA Patent 94/5197 RATIONALE FOR THE PRODUCT FORMULATION To enhance physical work capacity during the competition phases of the season implies that provision must be made to correct the various metabolically disrupted states that occur during and after an event. By means of sound nutritional intake prescriptions derived from foodstuffs that comprise our daily nutrient intake in combination with innovative nutrient supplementation to support and/or regulate specific physiological, biochemical and hormonal mechanisms at work prior to, during and after competing in strenuous physical activities, one can impact on physical work capacity.  FEATURES OF THE PRODUCT SPORTX RUGBY: · A dietary and 4-part nutritional supplement programme: Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Hours Prior  to Match 30 Minutes prior to Match During the Match After The Match Blue Capsules Green Capsules Yellow Capsules White Capsules “Carbo-Load” “Metabol” “Detox” “Recoop”   The specific combinations of the ingredients in one set of blue capsules effectively stimulate glycogen formation (carbo-loading) in the active musculature. The second set of green capsules trigger those physiological mechanisms responsible for the so-called "second wind" stage attained during events prior to the onset of physical activity: By manipulating the macronutrient metabolism (ratio of fat to carbohydrate burning) resets the lactic acid threshold to higher physical activity intensity levels and prolongs endurance. An additional set of yellow capsules that needs to be taken during the event, rids the muscle tissue of metabolic “waste products” and minimizes muscular and systemic acidosis that impair muscle power output. A fourth set of capsules aid in recovery.   · Is scientifically developed to reduce the exercise-induced stress in athletes subjected to prolonged strenuous physical activity levels.   · Prolongs the time before peripheral (muscular) and central (nervous system) fatigue sets in.   · Depending on the body weight, SPORTX RUGBY contains enough capsules to last for 5 or 10 games.   · When used as prescribed, the biologic activity of the nutrients fully accounts for the balance between muscle, brain, blood and liver tissues.   · Can be used by all age groups.

Testimonials The product was first introduced to a provincial team in their centenary match. The provincial team ended last in the Vodacom Cup for the season and played against the champions within 10 days after the Currie Cup final. The provincial team won the game  in a spectacular fashion and by a great margin.    FREE STATE vs  NATAL FREE STATE used the supplement the following year and won the Vodacom Cup with great margins. A local rugby club eliminated the current champions in the final of a local rugby cup competition when they used the supplement.   BLOEMFONTEIN OLD GREYS vs SHIMLAS The following year the supplement was provided to the SHIMLAS and they won the national club championships. Twelve players from a provincial rugby team used the supplement in the play-off games for the Currie Cup Final during the 1998 season. The team that used the supplement won the cup in a spectacular fashion although trailing at the half time interval in each game.    NORTHERN TRANSVAAL(12 players) vs GRIQUAS (14 players) [These two teams were selected according to the protocol design prior to the onset of the season] Another provincial team put up their best performances when they were asked to test the supplement. For the first time in many years the team made it to the finals of the Curry Cup.   GRIQUAS (14 players) Following two bad performances, nine players of the national rugby squad used the supplement for the last two games of the Tri-Nation Series in 1998. The commentators and the press were outspoken about the dramatic improvement in the fitness levels the players had obtained within one week.   Hannes Strydom, Franco Smith, Os du Randt, Andre Venter, Ruben Kruger, Joost vd Westhuisen Two of the best rugby players in the world received their awards during the time they were  using the supplement. They promote the use of the supplement for rugby players. Andre Venter, Os du Randt Many professional coaches and other renowned players are prepared to make statements pertaining to the beneficial properties of the supplement (see the section on testimonials and endorsements). The supplement was also introduced to many school teams at the primary and secondary levels. Many - if not all – advocated the beneficial properties ascribed to the use of the product.   Grey College, Bloemfontein, Schools in Sasolburg The supplement was tested in the Rugby League Championship in Ireland. No team of the specific club had ever before made it to the semi-finals of the competition. Three of the teams of the club participating in the trials played in the semi-finals and their coach was the runner-up for the best coach award in Ireland (see the section on testimonials and endorsements).   Andre Venter   TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN For the past 6 years, I have used two nutritional supplements provided to me by Dr M W Brussow and colleagues. In my opinion these products, when used as prescribed, outclass any other product available in the market place. I also feel that use of the supplement most certainly played an integral part in my sport career and the awards that came my way. The recovery rate during and after plays high light the prescribed use of the product. I was subjected to drug abuse tests on many occasions and the results prove that the supplements contain no banned substances. I am obliged to state that I am not paid to make these statements and that I have no financial gain or benefits should this product be commercialized except that I have always received the product free of charge. I endorse and recommend the product for use by rugby players.   Yours sincerely Andre Venter

When used as prescribed these innovative combinations of specific nutrients function synergistically to: Enhance glycogen synthesis in liver and skeletal muscle tissues. This occurs independently of the stimulus of exercise or diet regimens. ·         Facilitate inter-organ homeostasis. ·        Minimize the exercise-induced stress that is caused by intense physical activity. ·        Activate the physiological-biochemical processes ascribed to the ‘second wind’ stage of strenuous physical activity even before the activity commences. In effect it will produce activity levels in the relevant energy systems comparable to those normally attained only after 10 minutes of strenuous physical activity. ·        Stimulate the aerobic-lipolytic and aerobic-glycolytic systems at earlier, sub-maximum levels of physical activity. The lactic acid threshold rises commensurately. ·        Improve the removal of metabolites from active muscles during and after continuous or intermittent physical exertion, aiding muscle recovery. ·        Improve muscle power output by reducing the muscular and systemic acidosis which accompanies muscle fatigue. ·        Supply and elevate the plasma levels of the main substrates utilized by the immune systems following intense physical activity. INDICATIONS SPORT-X RUGBY SUPPLEMENT is a 4-part nutritional supplement programme specifically developed for rugby players. The product should only be used within the 6 hour period before competing. CONTRA-INDICATIONS ·        No side-effects were reported when the recommended dosage had been adhered to and the general directions for use were followed.     Nausea was reported in a limited number of cases where the capsules were chewed prior to ingestion.
