Anabolic Substrate Provisioning

Meaning

Anabolic substrate provisioning refers to the strategic and timely delivery of essential raw materials to facilitate tissue growth and repair. These substrates are the molecular building blocks, such as amino acids, specific fatty acids, and key micronutrient cofactors, required for anabolism. The clinical goal is to optimize the cellular environment to favor synthesis over degradation, supporting muscle, bone, and connective tissue health. This process is fundamental to recovery and the preservation of lean body mass.
