The Power of Protein
As an entrepreneur, you expend a lot of energy. From founding a company, to managing a team, to meeting all the challenges that come with it, you’re always busy. Even when the company is running smoothly, the day in and day out operations require a lot of running around, meetings, and other efforts. The excitement of running a company is what draws most of us to this profession. But that excitement can erode as the work keeps coming and more challenges arise. There’s a lot of talk about avoiding burn out by taking care of your body and brain. Every entrepreneur needs a system to help them recover, whether it’s prioritizing sleep, socializing, or simply taking time for yourself. Different methods appeal to different people, but there’s one common thing that many of us ignore—the cells in our bodies.
On Season 6 episode 22 of the Making Bank Podcast, Rowena Gates chats about the importance of protein in our bodies. She doesn’t necessarily mean consuming more protein, but rather helping the proteins in our bodies can help us perform better. At her company Eng3 Tech, they’ve found a way to help our natural processes produce more energy through their NanoVi tech.
Why Protein Matters
Before we dive into the device created by Eng3 Tech, let’s talk about what goes on in your cells and how it impacts energy.
First, Rowena explains how throughout the day, our cells undergo damage. Either from stress, poor diet, or simply, exerting a lot of energy, our cells experience something called oxidative damage. This happens every day and is part of our biology. However, our cells then need to balance out this damage to keep us going. Essentially, we experience damage, then a metabolic rebalancing and so the cycle continues.
As Rowena outlines in the episode, all of these functions are done by the proteins in our bodies. Our proteins are what she calls the “workhorses in the cells,” and we need these proteins to be functioning properly so that our cells can function, so that we can function. However, in order for our proteins to work, they first need to fold into these 3D structures. They can’t do anything for us until they fold properly. While this is a natural process, sometimes the proteins need help folding. This is where Eng3 Tech steps in.
What NanoVi Tech Does
The device at Eng3 Tech helps your proteins fold better. The NanoVi Tech does not replace any natural process in your body, but rather boosts it. By adjusting the cellular water, NanoVi Tech helps create a better environment for your proteins to fold, making them and you more powerful.
But what does this actually look like? How can this impact your life?
How it Helps
In using NanoVi Tech, you may notice that you recover faster from workouts, have better energy and find yourself focusing more. You can use NanoVi Tech either before or after your workouts, but for best results, Rowena suggests using it both times. Even if you’re not working out, using it every day has a plethora of long-term benefits.
Rowena and her team have found that those who use the device have seen a more balanced immune system and nervous system. While they’re still working on collecting long-term data, they’ve heard from many clients how they feel energized and healthier.
Performance for the Pros
Rowena and her team have done many short-term studies and have seen massive results. In fact, many pro athletes have bought the device and found it helps them feel better after intense workouts. When testing the power of the device, Rowena and her team have found that NanoVi Tech can reduce the lactic acid build up in muscles by 17%. The lactic acid build up is what leads to sore muscles and sometimes a slower recovery. The 17% reduction is after using the device only one time.
Many pro athletes report that the technology has allowed them to recover faster, which allows them to work out more and perform better on their teams. So, if NanoVi tech is helping pro athletes, why can’t it help you?
Performance for You
As said before, being an entrepreneur requires a lot of energy. Rowena says it’s the equivalent of running a marathon. I’m sure we’ve all had days where we can relate to that—where we’re dragging our feet to get things done. So, it’s no surprise that even CEOs have used NanoVi tech and have felt improvements in their lives. Many of the executives who have tried the technology report feeling calmer, sleeping better, and having more energy.
The benefits of NanoVi technology don’t have to be limited to just you. Rowena chats about how before Covid, they had a device for the whole office. They would take turns utilizing it while at their desks so that everyone had a chance to benefit from the device.
So, if you’re looking for an alternative way to encourage corporate health and wellness, Eng3 Tech may be a good place to start.
Alternatives
While the NanoVi tech may not appeal to everyone, Rowena stresses an important point about corporate wellness. Look for ways to encourage and even support wellness in your company. Whether that’s subsidizing yoga classes, offering a discount on gym memberships or simply running a month-long fitness challenge, come up with ways to encourage healthy habits at your business. We all want our employees to be healthy, but sometimes that means helping them attain it. After all, the health of the employees is the health of the company.
