Description
A highly absorbable form of creatine.
Promotes protein synthesis and the formation of lean muscle mass.
How does NSI® Creatine Ethyl Ester CEE 2500 work?
Creatine is an amino acid (protein building block) found in foods such as meat and milk, and naturally produced by the body, that supplies energy to muscle cells. Approximately one-third of the creatine stored in the body is in its free form as creatine, while the rest is bound to phosphate and called "creatine phosphate" or "phosphocreatine."
During high-intensity exercise, such as weight lighting, high-jumping or sprinting, phosphocreatine is broken down into creatine and phosphate. Energy released in this process is used to recreate adenosine triphosphate (ATP), the main "fuel" source that drives many biological processes, including muscle contraction. Creatine is believed to promote enhanced performance by replenishing levels of ATP.
Creatine ethyl ester (CEE) is a structurally related analog of creatine. It consists of creatine monohydrate with an attached ester (an organic compound that forms when alcohol reacts with an acid). As the most absorbable form of creatine, it features a delivery system that allows it to be transported directly into muscle cells. Other forms of creatine "wait" outside muscle cells, attracting water that causes a puffy, bloated look.
NSI® Creatine Ethyl Ester delivers 2.5 grams of CEE per half-teaspoon serving. Mix with water, juice or other beverages 30 minutes before meals for best absorption.
NSI® Creatine Ethyl Ester CEE 2500 is better because it:
Is less likely to cause bloating, gas and other intestinal discomforts.
Is available at a much greater value than other CEE products on the market.
Directions
As a dietary supplement, take 1/2 teaspoon with 12-16 oz of water 30-60 minutes prior to workout. Continue water consumption throughout the workout. An additional 1/2 teaspoon and 12-16 oz of water immediately after the workout can be taken for increased effectiveness.
