Creatine Ethyl Ester & Kre-Alkalyn...Inferior Creatines
For all of you out there paying more for ethyled creatine and kre-alkalyn check out this study.

Creatine Efficacy Headlines At Sports Nutrition Meeting :: News :: Natural and Nutritional Products Industry Center

Creatine ethyl ester claims to offer up to 4000% better absorption than creatine monohydrate. The study proves creatine monohydrate to give up to 900% better absorption in contrast to cee...so stop buying the crap the magazines tell u are so much better and stick to the basic proven supplements.

This is one reason why Avant Research added Creatine Monohydrate to the SyntheSIZE formula. You get the benefits from both CEE and CrM.

It is a documented study...its not fake. I've been using creatine monohydrate for quite some time and I have noticed much better strength gains than when I tried cee...never tried kre-alkalyn and am definitly not even considering it after seeing the science, or lack there of , behind the product.
all in all cee and kre-alkalyn=big claims; little results

I'm not sure but creatine monohydrate has over 600 studies in the past ten years proving its effectiveness...I'll bet tri-creatine malate is just another gimick promising something more effective but failing to provide results.

Hard to argue with documented research/science but if something works, it works.

My experience with kre-alkalyn was that it did not work at all. I prefer monohydrate. CEE gave me some horrible cramps. I believe it's because one of the most important aspects of creatine is the one thing everyone wants to avoid. The water retention is what makes creatine work so well.

I find it intresting on the kre-alkalyn since they had to show studies and research in order to receive the patent.

Good post.

I believe that study to be a bit flawed though. CEE is supposed to be absorbed so much faster than Mono. So, with that....does anyone know how long CEE sits in your stomach for? There is supposed to be a study somewhere that measured creatine absorption and uptake of CEE compared to Mono and it shows that CEE is absorbed quicker, peaks higher and levels off sooner than Mono. So, maybe CEE can bypass the acid conditions of your stomach (real world test and not test tube) and absorb very well.

This is just a thought....

There are 3 types of lies. Lies, damn lies, and statistics.

I'm pretty sure studies can be put in the same place as statistics. They can be used to say anything. There are studies proving the efficacy of Kre-alk; this study apparently says it doesn't work. I would just try it and see or look at what others have gotten as far as results.

People site studies all the time like they are infalable, when many times the quality of the study could be questioned. I wouldn't say something is inferior based off just what one study says, especially when so many, like the non responders, find these other forms effective.

I'm going to be trying NOS Ether, a kre-alk product, for myself and will let you guys know how it goes. As far as other creatines, I know CEE works the best so far for me for strength. Green MAG creatine isn't bad either.
