[Ultra Life] Creatine

Creatine, an essential supplement for improving peak performance in strength, stamina and energy production.
Old versions of creatine were based on creatine monohydrate, a great supplement but has now been proven to be not as effective as creatine ethyl ester. Creatine ethyl ester is PH buffered so the harsh acidic environment of your stomach does not fully metabolise the creatine molecule, which gives it a near 100% absorption rate.

Creatine supplementation has been proven to be very effective in athletic performance and by consuming a creatine supplement that has a near 100% absorption rate you can ensure that you are maximising your gains in strength, size and anaerobic power.
By saturating your skeletal muscles with additional creatine you ensure optimum ATP (the muscle's high energy phosphate fuel) re-production leading to improved immediate recovery times i.e. in between sets as well as increasing energy output.

Creatine is a nitrogen containing compound combining 3 amino acids, arginine, glycine and methionine and works extremely well with sugar. included in ultra-life's great tasting orange drink is orange juice concentrate. The small amount of natural sugars from this will elevate blood sugar further promoting an ideal environment in which creatine can be efficiently transported into skeletal muscle cells.

Ultralife’s Performance Creatine formula incorporates proven science and practical experience of what it takes to create peak performance and fuel high intensity training.
Supplementation with Creatine increases and saturates the skeletal muscles and ensures there are adequate stores of Creatine, thereby helping to enhance athletic performance and build lean muscle mass.
Scientific studies have shown that the most profound results with Creatine supplementation occur with short, intense bouts of exercise, rather than prolonged, endurance types of activity. Creatine is a nitrogen-based substance that is consumed in foods as a normal part of the diet, mainly in meat, poultry and fish.
It is also synthesised in the body from three amino acids: arginine, glycine and methionine, principally via the kidneys and liver. From these organs, Creatine is transported in the bloodstream to muscle stores, 95% of which are in skeletal muscle, where it combines with phosphates to form phosphocreatine, or Creatine phosphate.
Creatine phosphate, in turn, serves as the storage form of adenosine triphospate (ATP), the muscle’s high-energy phosphate fuel necessary for intense muscle contraction.
About 1.5 – 2% of the body’s Creatine pool is converted to the metabolite creatinine every day.
