Myalgan or proMyalgan that is the question!

Both preparations have pretty similar composition and due to this fact they produce similar effect. The main difference substitutes two different amino acids. There is 50 mg of l-tryptophan in Myalgan and 30 mg of taurine in proMyalgan.

Both products Myalgan as well as proMyalgan provide similar set of plant extracts. Myalgan provides additionally l-tryptophan that facilitate melatonin and serotonin levels and subsequently influence positively on sleep /energy and mood*.

Myalgan + tryptophan + taurine

Myalgan

We have created new product Myalgan+ in 2019. This new product name has been created in order to distinguish former Myalgan without "+" sign and without taurine. Myalgan and proMyalgan have pretty similar composition and due to this fact they produce similar effect. The major difference is different amino acid in its composition. Myalgan is the novelty product that comprises both l-Tryptophan and Taurine and provides beneficial effect related to each of this ingredient.

It has been removed two ingredients: sweet almond extract and orange juice powder from Myalgan and proMyalgan in 2016. These ingredients in the original formula were in small amounts of 10 mg each and had no active functions. Their original role was to improve taste, as tablets were originally intended for both swallowing and sucking. The lozenges crumbled easily and were unstable. From technological reasons, we decided not to use lozengeable tablets – which had a positive impact on their stability. Instead of these ingredients, tryptophan was introduced, which has an important nutritional function.

Hereinafter we present detailed quantitative composition of both products as for 2023.

Compound	Myalgan Amount [mg]	proMyalgan Amount [mg]
Daisy Leaf Extract	70	75
Grape Leaf Extract	70	75
Olive Seed Extract	70	75
Pineapple Fruit Extract	50	50
l-Tryptophan	50	50
Taurine	30	—
Sweet Almond Extract	This ingredient has been discontinued

It should be emphasized that each consumer should evaluate for herself/himself which product suits her/him best.
