Product Description : With
the introduction of Meta-CEL, an entirely new frontier has been
established in creatine/muscle-building supplement technology. Meta-CEL
contains a unique, proprietary blend of two revolutionary complexes blended
in exact scientific amounts to bring you the most advanced
muscle-building formula ever developed. Quite simply Meta-CEL attempts
to gather the new era of creatine transport science, derived from
human, animal, and in vitro (test tube) investigations. Here's a look at
what's in it and the science behind each ingredient.
Creatine Monohydrate To date, no other forms of creatine, e.g.
creatine citrate, creatine pyruvate, creatine-magnesium complex, have
convincingly shown superior real-world results in comparison to creatine
monohydrate. Moreover, these "designer" forms of creatine cost more.
One of the most thoroughly tested dietary supplements overall, and
perhaps the most exhaustively tested sports nutrition ingredient outside
of carbohydrates, is creatine monohydrate. Until several studies show
that a different form of creatine is superior to creatine monohydrate
when it is directly compared to creatine monohydrate, and that
"superiority" is defined by significantly greater increases in fat-free mass
and/or muscular performance, the jury rests. There is no compelling
reason, scientific or rational, to use a different form of creatine than
the monohydrate. Period. All other forms of creatine may be considered
ineffective until proven effective and superior to creatine monohydrate.
Inzitol (D-Pinitol) This cousin of the
nutrient inositol was first characterized in sugar pine trees. It is
classified as a cyclitol, a sugar derivative that serves to protect plants
from harsh environmental conditions. It is also present in soy meal, at
a concentration of about 1% by weight, and is abundant in citrus
fruits and legumes. Animal and muscle cell studies with D-pinitol have
shown it to have insulin-mimicking effects, suggesting that it exerts
the same actions as insulin independent of the presence of insulin.
However, human studies in subjects with insulin resistance have yet to show
a positive effect on insulin sensitivity.
Pushing Creatine Gains Even Further... If we were to peer into
the muscle cell membrane, we would see what resembles a Saturday night
at an exclusive dance club/bar. Inside the building is where all the
action is taking place, but what's making the action happen are the VIP's
gaining entry into the club. Creatine is a VIP during the loading stage,
and when a creatine transporter "sees" creatine in the
crowd, the revolving door is opened and creatine is ushered inside (much
to the dismay of the others anxiously waiting in line). Creatine
transporters are a series of closely related proteins that weave in and out of
muscle, intestinal, and brain cell membranes. When they are abundant and in
contact with the "outside" world, namely the world of chemicals
floating in the blood, they can be stimulated by various agents. Welcome
insulin and beta-adrenergic receptors. Potentin
Compound Synephrine and other phenolamines present in Citrus species
extracts (e.g., Citrus aurantium) have been advocated as thermogenic,
appetite-reducing, and body-composition-altering agents. The phenolamine synephrine
is a "fraternal" chemical twin of the naturally occurring
neurochemical epinephrine (a.k.a. adrenaline), but does not appear to share the
same trait of causing a "fight or flight" experience, at
least in relation to blood pressure elevation. The rationale behind the
use of Citrus-derived synephrine and other phenolamines is that they
are weak stimulators of alpha- and beta-adrenergic receptors. These
are the same cellular receptors (from a variety of tissues) that are
stimulated by ephedrine. To date, the only Citrus-derived phenolamine shown
to stimulate human beta-adrenergic receptors appears to be
