Description: Creatine is a natural substance found in many foods
that is stored in muscle tissue. Creatine supplements are bound to a
monohydrate molecule for stability and bio-availability.
For anaerobic exercises (done in the absence of oxygen) like weight lifting,
football, sprinting, etc., ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is burned. This fuel
lasts 5-10 seconds, then throws off one of its three phophate molecules.
Creatine once in the body becomes phosphocreatine and donates its phosphate
molecule to the lacking ATP, or now ADP (adenosine diphosphate), to again
form ATP. Supersaturation of Creatine is needed to ensure enough phosphate
molecules for the replenishment of ATP.
