Creatine Surge
800-969-6199
Creatine Monohydrate Products
Creatine is one of the most widely recommended health supplements for enhancing anaerobic performance such as weightlifting and sprinting. Creatine is also one of the few supplements for athletes that has legitimate research studies backing its efficacy (Clin Sci, 83:3, 367-74, 1992).
Creatine Surge is a new creatine-based product created by Jarrow Formulas. In addition to creatine monohydrate and dextrose, this formula contains nutrients that enhance protein and glycogen synthesis and protect against free radicals.
Creatine Surge contains high glycemic equivalent carbohydrates to raise insulin levels. Researchers note that insulin may open the gates for nutrient entry into the muscle.<
Creatine Surge contains L-Glutamine, an amino acid supplement that may be the most effective modulator of protein synthesis (Biochem J, 265:593-8, 1990). Also, scientists have found that a surprisingly small amount of glutamine raises alkaline reserves, which can translate into the benefit of reduced lactic acid.
After the third decade of life, humans start to experience a rapid drop in circulating growth hormone levels. Consequently, body composition patterns shift toward muscle loss. Glutamine may be invaluable in this situation, as it is capable of modulating protein synthesis. Recent clinical research has demonstrated findings which support the hypothesis that glutamine affects muscular protein synthesis and the circulating growth hormone levels (Am J Clin Nutr 61:1058-61, 1995). In this study, only 2 grams of oral glutamine were enough to cause a significant release of growth hormone in young adult men. In another study, glutamine's anabolic and anticatabolic effects were shown as glutamine inhibited protein breakdown while increasing protein synthesis (Biochem J, 265:593-8, 1990).
Aside from efficacious amounts of creatine monohydrate and glutamine, Creatine Surge contains antioxidants such as taurine, grapeskin extract, and vitamin C to provide protection from free radicals generated during intense exercise. Creatine Surge is a sophisticated formulation combining optimum ratios of nutrients for peak athletic performance. As expected from Jarrows Formulas, Creatine Surge contains no artifical sweeteners, coloring or preservatives.
