Kre-Alkalyn is the trademarked name for a pH-buffered and enhanced form of Buy Creatine. Ever since its release in the early 1990’s, Creatine Monohydrate has become firmly entrenched as one of the premier sports supplements and all natural ergogenics (performance enhancing compound). Initially used by elite athletes, creatine use has become almost universal amongst amateurs and has even found use in various medical applications, including providing support for people with neuromuscular diseases and auto-immune disorders. Creatine has also found use as a nootropic (mental cognition enhancer). But there are side effects and intolerances which is where Kre-Alkalyn is designed to come in. Kre-Alkalyn takes the natural benefits of Creatine and both enhance the effects and minimizes the possible downsides of Creatine supplementation.
CREATINE MONOHYDRATE – THE START
Creatine Monohydrate, more properly known as methyl guanidine-acetic acid, has become firmly entrenched as the premier sports supplement enhancement compound. It is a completely natural compound and a constituent of animal foods, although modern Creatine supplements are artificially synthesized in laboratories. Our liver and kidneys synthesize creatine from the amino acids glycine, arginine, and methionine and it is not considered an essential nutrient, although supplementation with Creatine products have shown massive improvements in major markers of physical performance, including muscle mass increases, explosive strength output, protein synthesis, fatigue blocking and intracellular hydration. Creatine works through the ATP-PC (adenosine triphosphate-phosphocreatine) energy system which provides the primary energy for working muscles during short burst activities, in practice anything under 20 seconds duration, which makes creatine supplementation extremely important for athletes involved in weight training, sprinting and any strength/speed sports.
SO WHAT’S THE PROBLEM WITH REGULAR CREATINE? WHY USE KRE-ALKALYN?
Creatine Monohydrate is a fantastic compound however there are a number of issues which need to be borne in mind when choosing a supplement for maximum effectiveness.
Problem 1: Creatine Purity – Very cheap Creatine supplements may not actually contain pure creatine and may even be loaded with cheap fillers or potentially hazardous toxins. These can include excess sodium, Dihydrotriazine, Dicyandiamide and of course Creatinine. Creatinine is a useless metabolic by product of excess Creatine and has no useful physiological benefits – it may even have some negative indicators. Generally you can avoid Creatine Purity issues by buying a reputable brand that can show 100% purity certification. Kre-Alkalyn is always 100% pure.
Problem 2: Creatine Intolerance – Around 20 to 30% of the population show some degree of Creatine supplementation intolerance or non-responsiveness. In creatine responders up to 20% increases in TCr Content of muscles can be seen, however in the percentage of those with Intolerances we may see as little as an 8% rise. Even worse than this poor performance however some users see severe gastrointestinal distress, with diarrhoea, abdominal cramping, bloating or puffy skin and even vomiting. This can make creatine supplementation virtually impossible for many people and even for those with only mild symptoms it can prevent them from seeing maximum benefits from this otherwise excellent compound. Kre-Alkalyn works for those non-responders and you won’t see the unpleasant intolerance side effects.
Problem 3: Instability in liquids and conversion into Creatinine – The real unspoken problem with Creatine Monohydrate is its complete instability in liquids. Even a 100% pure rated Creatine Monohydrate placed in liquid begins to destabilise and convert into the waste compound Creatinine. All creatine, once processed by your muscles, will eventually be exhausted and spent as Creatinine waste but if this happens before you even get to use it you will see markedly less improvement in performance, more side effects, possible kidney stress and certainly a lot of wasted money. Kre-Alkalyn is not just 100% pure when dry, it maintains this enhanced pH buffering in liquids too.
KRE-ALKALYN – THE ENHANCED CREATINE ANSWER
Scientist Jeff Golini, a former bodybuilder, first brought the Nitric Oxide amplifier AKG (Arginine Alpha-Ketoglutarate) to the market but then went a step further and finally investigated creatine with the idea of creating a better product. What he noticed first was really rather simple chemistry, even 100% pure rated creatine is grossly unstable in liquid and conversion to unwanted creatinine is inevitable over very short periods of time.
With Kre-Alkalyn he hit upon a rather simple, but highly effective pH correction and balancing reformulation of creatine that avoids this problem entirely. Kre-Alkalyn is not excessively complex and does not rely on the esterification or other exotic creatine forms to work, which means you will find that for a patented product, Kre-Alkalyn retains much of the value for money of basic creatine whilst working far more effectively. Even Creatine Ethyl Esters and other formats will be unstable in liquids and show increased creatinine conversion over Kre-Alkalyn whilst still being far more expensive.
Kre-Alkalyn is patented in the U.S to Protected Patent #6, 399, 661
THE KRE-ALKALYN pH BALANCING ACT
Below is a results list explaining the 100% conversion times for positive Creatine into waste form Creatinine in various liquids. This table shows actual results of 1 gram of Creatine Monohydrate in 1 litre of corresponding liquid. Clearly this much liquid is rarely used for a single gram of creatine but you can easily extrapolate the results into different amounts and see how much creatine you might be wasting in your sports drinks or even sitting digesting in your stomach contents long before it reaches your muscle tissues and can perform its job. Kre-Alkalyn is shown at the end.

As you can see, the difference made by Kre-Alkalyn pH-Correct Creatine is so great that the comparison to normal Creatine Monohydrate is staggering. With the use of Kre-Alkalyn you raise the pH value of creatine out of the Creatinine conversion level completely and can see total uptake of Kre-Alkalyn creatine to muscle tissue where it can be used effectively.
THE BENEFITS OF USING KRE-ALKALYN:
1. Kre-Alkalyn is 100% pure and totally free from toxins, excess sodium and creatinine byproducts
2. Kre-Alkalyn form creatine is pH buffered so it DOES NOT convert into waste by product Creatinine even in liquids.
3. Kre-Alkalyn remains stable no matter how you use it, in water, with protein or weight gainer shakes, as a tablet or capsule format with a drink – guaranteed stability.
4. If you have never responded well with creatine before you can see all the benefits with Kre-Alkalyn
5. Avoid unpleasant bloating, cramps, abdominal distress and puffy water retention by using only Kre-Alkalyn pH correct creatine
6. Simple design without exotic form technologies means most licensed Kre-Alkalyn products remain far cheaper than Ethyl Ester competitors and other expensive versions.
7. Kre-Alkalyn can be found in both powdered form or in capsules, as much more of it converts to active creatine in muscle tissue and is not wasted you can use significantly less and loading is NOT required. As a rough guide 1 to 2 grams of Kre-Alkalyn is equivalent to 5-10 grams of creatine monohydrate.
8. All of the insulin enhancing products such as Dextrose loading drinks, D-Pinnitol, Alpha Lipoic Acid etc which have improved regular creatine can be used alongside Kre-Alkalyn compounds with equal success, with the added benefit of no gastric distress or wasted creatine. You will find many brands of Kre-Alkalyn as capsule forms will already come with these enhancements.
