This is the brand that started is all on June 4th, 2002 when Kre-Alkalyn® was awarded United States manufacturing patent #6,399,661. Kre-Alkalyn® EFX is "buffered" creatine that does not convert into creatinine prior to reaching skeletal muscle tissue. It is packaged in a purple capsule that can be administered orally. Kre-Alkalyn EFX is manufactured exclusively by All American Pharmaceutical Corporation.
Many bodybuilders, and even some supplement companies, still don´t know what scientists have already known for decades: creatine is chemically unstable in liquids. Its molecules rapidly convert to creatinine- a useless "bio-waste" - once activated with fluids or in your stomach acids. You´re left with fewer active creatine molecules and, even worse, potential side-effects that can all but wreck your training or performance!
The research behind Kre-Alkalyn® EFX´s patent suggests that creatine´s speed of conversion or breakdown into creatinine (a mostly useless byproduct) is directly related to its pH - the lower the pH, the faster it converts. Furthermore, the conversion rates slow dramatically as the pH of the creatine is raised above 7 and stops completely above pH 12.
Here´s why: A pH level above 12 represents the perfect ratio of Hydrogen ions to Hydroxyl ions to stop the chemical reaction of: Creatine + H20 = Creatinine.
The unique "buffering" agents in Kre-Alkalyn® EFX effectively mop up the excess Hydrogen ions and keep them from lowering pH. In other words, it gives creatine the ability to resist changes in pH that it normally doesn´t have.
This protects the creatine molecules during transport - delivering them intact to the bloodstream so they can reach your muscle cells with 100% potency. That´s the power of pH-Xact™ delivery technology!
The rationale behind Kre-Alkalyn® EFX is "creatine on demand", i.e., at the times your body needs it, which is why it requires "no loading". Taken 1 or 1.5 hours prior to physical exercise, Kre-Alkalyn® provides all the needed creatine into the blood stream, ready to enter muscle cells. Most importantly, Kre-Alkalyn® results in strength and performance enhancement without water retention or any of the other common side-effects. Here finally was the perfect creatine.
Twenty-four members of the Bulgarian National Weightlifting Team were selected to participate in a landmark double-blind clinical study comparing Kre-Alkalyn® to standard creatine monohydrate. The final results were shocking!
The Kre-Alkalyn® group experienced an overall average strength increase above those in the creatine monohydrate group! Remember, these weren´t "newbies". They were all world-class competitors.
Think about it. If Kre-Alkalyn® worked this well for these elite Olympic athletes, just imagine what it could do for you!
