Creatine Monohydrate has been
proven through decades of research to enhance strength, endurance, and
athletic performance. However some athletes have noted side effects
including nausea, stomach cramps, bloating, and a host of other unwanted
reactions. What wasn't realized until recently is that these side
effects are actually caused by creatinine, and not Creatine.
Kre-Alkalyn® is Creatine which is 100% stable and will not
break down into Creatinine. This allows the Creatine to be absorbed
more efficiently into the bloodstream. Kre-Alkalyn® allows
athletes to use smaller serving sizes while experiencing even more
explosive results.
Kre-Alkalyn® has been referred to as a new form of
Creatine. However, it is actually the best form of Creatine (Creatine
Monohydrate) that has been fully stabilized. It is a new technology
altogether: 100% stable Creatine. Kre-Alkalyn® is processed at a higher
pH level than regular Creatine Monohydrate.
On June 4, 2002 Kre-Alkalyn® was awarded official U.S. Patent
#6,399,661. The patent discusses an oral Creatine supplement and the
method of manufacturing this supplement, which includes mixing an
alkaline powder with a powdered Creatine until the pH of the mixture is
in the range between 7-14. The research behind Kre-Alkalyn®'s patent
shows that Creatine's speed of conversion to creatinine is directly
related to the pH of the liquid used for mixing-the lower the pH, the
faster it converts. Conversion of Creatine into the waste product
creatinine can be halted by pH level alteration during the manufacturing
process.
Kre-Alkalyn® has a pH above 12 because its molecules are
synthesized with "buffering" agents using a patented manufacturing
process. As a result, it remains completely stable and reaches muscle
cells at full strength. This helps the body absorb more Creatine, thus
lowering the serving size required for beneficial results.
Preliminary feedback for Kre-Alkalyn® has been positive.
Many athletes report a decrease in water retention and the elimination
of bloating. Many athletes also report immediate results even with the
elimination of the "loading" phase normally followed for regular
Creatine Monohydrate. Research has shown a dramatic increase in Creatine
Phosphate concentration when supplementing with 1.5g of Kre-Alkalyn®
daily for 2 or more days.
Kre-Alkalyn® also buffers lactic acid. Accumulation of
metabolic acid (H+) is recognized as a rate-limiting factor in exercise.
Kre-Alkalyn®'s patented buffer system immediately
neutralizes the acid in the stomach, protecting the buffered Creatine
from creatinine conversion. The acidity is reduced and Kre-Alkalyn®
is ready for absorption. After entering the small intestine,
bicarbonate ions are secreted to further alkalinize the Kre-Alkalyn® for
absorption into the blood stream. Kre-Alkalyn®'s buffering
effect assists in sparing the body's natural bicarbonate stores,
prolonging muscular performance and delaying the onset of fatigue.
What will pH-correct Creatine actually mean to you? No more nasty
side effects. No more loading. No more cycling. No more sugar or
dextrose transport systems. Best of all, a small serving is all that's
needed to reach your muscle cells intact and with full impact and no
bloating.
