Description

Axis Labs' Creatine Ethyl Ester is a newer, more efficient class of creatine supplement. Creatine Ethyl Ester HCL (CEE) is creatine monohydrate with an attached ester (an organic compound formed by esterification) to enhance creatine absorption and utilization within the body. Creatine Ethyl Ester is an exceptionally soluble form of creatine that maximizes concentrations in the muscles.

Creatine is a naturally occurring metabolite found in muscle tissue that helps provide energy to muscles. Creatine supplementation increases the muscle's ability to refuel quickly. Athletes and bodybuilders may develop low muscle stores of creatine after high intensity exercise. Independent studies suggest that creatine supplementation can promote muscle size, strength and athletic performance.

In its solid form creatine is difficult to dissolve in liquid, creating problems with supplementation. Due to regular creatine's poor absorption rate, it requires the user to ingest large dosages (loading) to achieve the desired result. However, high doses of regular creatine can cause side effects such as water retention. Since creatine attracts water to cells, unabsorbed creatine monohydrate can remain outside cells and cause bloating, dehydration and cramping.

Esterified creatines, such as Creatine Ethyl Ester, maximize creatine absorption into the body's cells by utilizing fat as a transport mechanism.
CEE penetrates the muscle cells resulting in substantially more functional creatine. Therefore, lower amounts of Creatine Ethyl Ester are needed to saturate muscle cells, eliminating the problems of water retention and bloating.

Pros

Axis Labs' Creatine Ethyl Ester features Ester-Sorb technology resulting in advanced absorption, increased bioavailability and stability. Axis Labs states that Creatine Ethyl Ester more efficiently penetrates the muscle cell resulting in 30 to 40 times more functional creatine. This lowers dosage requirements and prevents the infamous "creatine bloat".

The nutrients in Creatine Ethyl Ester have the following benefits:

• Builds muscle
• Increases strength and endurance
• Promotes athletic training and performance
• Prevents "creatine bloat"

Cons

Regular creatine may be associated with side effects such as stomach upset, diarrhea, nausea, bloating and muscle cramping. Axis Labs promises no creatine bloat side effects.

People with kidney disease should not supplement with creatine.

No drug interractions have been reported at this time.

Is it for you?

Athletes, bodybuilders and exercisers of all ages and experience levels can improve their muscle size, strength and performance by supplementing with Creatine Ethyl Ester.

If you're currently taking regular creatine monohydrate but are experiencing creatine bloat, you may get greater benefit from using a CEE product like Axis Labs' Creatine Ethyl Ester.

Dosage and Directions

Take 2 to 4 capsules twice daily.

On workout days take 2 to 4 capsules with 16 oz. of water 15 to 30 minutes before training. Take another 2 to 4 capsules with 16 oz. of water 15 to 30 minutes after training.

On non workout days take 2 to 4 capsules with 16 oz. of water with your first meal. Take another 2 to 4 capsules with 16 oz. of water with a meal 4 to 6 hours later.

To maximize results, use in conjunction with resistance training and consume ten 8 oz. glasses of water daily.
