Creatine Monohydrate Capsules

ATP resynthesis, Proven Muscular Power & Stamina Product

Creatine is a natural substance found in the body that plays a very powerful role in energy metabolism. Oral supplementation of creatine monohydrate has been shown to increase the resynthesis of ATP (andenosine triphosphate) from ADP (andenosine diphosphate) during muscle contractions. ATP is the molecule the muscle cells burn during muscle contraction. When the energy is released from the ATP molecule it drops off a phosphate, thus becoming ADP. Creatine combines with a phosphate molecule forming a phosphocreatine molecule which delivers the phosphate to the ADP molecule reforming ATP. This resynthesized ATP molecule is then ready to be utilized for energy again. Because the body only stores an 8 - 12 second supply of ATP, it is very important to increase the creatine pool and maximize the ATP-ADP phosphate shuttle. The result is more explosive muscular contractions, increased stamina and endurance, greater intensity and less muscular fatigue which delivers more muscle size and strength.

Prolab Nutrition's creatine monohydrate is produced in Germany in an ISO 9000 & 9001 certified factory. An ISO certification is the highest award a laboratory or factory can achieve. It surpasses the standards of OTC and even surpasses the strict standards of pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Creatine Monohydrate is produced via a chemical synthesis route. The synthesis is done by reacting sarcosine sodium salt with cyanamide under heated conditions. Sarcosine sodium salt is a derivative of acetic acid. Cyanamide is an organic amide. When the process is complete, the sodium salt is rinsed away and the finished product is then redried. This critical step insures there is no residual sodium common to incomplete processing. Further information on specific processing conditions and equipment used in the manufacture of creatine monohydrate is considered proprietary and the process patent protected.

The finished product then undergoes rigid testing for purity against a creatine monohydrate standard. Through a process called High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) the creatine is tested for its level of purity. Creatine monohydrate under this testing procedure will typically score as 99% pure creatine monohydrate. This purity test is the only test the majority of companies will conduct on their product.

The finished product is further tested for impurities that would indicate product instability. The results of instability are product degradation and breakdown. Breakdown causes formation of impurities common to incomplete synthesis. Industrial grade raw materials to start the creatine monohydrate processing will also result in the formation and build-up of impurities with unknown, yet potentially harmful toxilogical properties. Our raw materials are pharmaceutical/food grade only. This grade is screened for impurities before processing begins.

Simply stated, processing starts with the very best ingredients that yield the world's finest creatine monohydrate product. All manufacturing takes place in a state-of-the-art refinery through a patented process. Finished product is not only tested for purity, we also test for impurities. These steps insure that you are receiving the very best product on the market.

This is a must have product for weight trainers and power athletes.
