John Scott's Nitro ® is proud to introduce a true breakthrough innovation in creatine delivery technology called Creatine DP™. This new type of molecularly bonded creatine was developed via a special research and development project to create the most efficient creatine possible. The result of this successful project provides you with the clinically proven power of creatine but with 400% net greater absorption over simple creatine monohydrate due to its vastly increased solubility (1200% better) and buffered cutting-edge delivery system.

For you, this means Creatine DP™ is incredibly more effective in getting energy producing creatine into your muscles and buffers its acidity, virtually eliminating gastric upset or bloating.

Creatine DP™ is scientifically developed and tested for maximum solubility and absorption, solving both the solubility and acidity problems associated with creatine usage. Creatine DP's innovative delivery technology has nearly 100% absorption compared to Creatine Monohydrate's (CM) 40%.

Creatine DP is 12x more water soluble than conventional CM products and is over 2x more buffered with a bioactive pH of 7.5. As a result, it is absorbed rapidly into your muscles due to highly increased bioavailability.

What is Creatine DP?

Creatine DP is the future of creatine. Creatine is semi-lipopholic, meaning it utilizes lipids or fats to permeate the muscle cell wall and enter the cell. Enhancing this inefficient transport mechanism would lead to greater absorption. Creatine DP generates this enhanced efficiency by double bonding creatine to a well-researched, safe, organic compound called Propionic Acid, which is a liquid fatty acid that can be found naturally in sweat, in milk products or as a byproduct of bacterial fermentation such as sugar breakdown.

Creatine DP™ has vastly increased solubility (1200% better) and a buffered cutting-edge delivery system.

Creatine DP vs Creatine monohydrate

As a bonus, propionic acid works synergistically with creatine to enhance strength, energy and endurance. Propionic acid can convert into coenzyme A via a vitamin B12-dependent enzyme. Succinyl-CoA is an intermediate of the citric acid cycle (the body's muscle energy producing cycle that produces ATP) and can be readily incorporated there.

Creatine DP's Advantages

Requires smaller dosage (400% greater net absorption)
Dissolves completely in water
Is 100% more buffered than Creatine Monohydrate
Is pH balanced, optimizing metabolic work
Works faster and is more efficiently absorbed due to increased bioavailability
Maximizes muscle fullness and hardness because it pulls water into the muscle cells more efficiently
Eliminates stomach bloat & gastric upset

Creatine - A Quick History

Creatine Monohydrate (CM) is a naturally occurring metabolite that helps recycle the body�s supply of ATP for increased energy output, strength and endurance. CM is one of the most successful and scientifically proven athletic performance supplements of all time. It has been shown to increase lean body mass, high-intensity power output and strength. Despite its effectiveness, CM has its problems.

As a bonus, propionic acid works synergistically with creatine to enhance strength, energy and endurance. Propionic acid can convert into coenzyme A via a vitamin B12-dependent enzyme. Succinyl-CoA is an intermediate of the citric acid cycle (the body's muscle energy producing cycle that produces ATP) and can be readily incorporated there.

Creatine's Drawbacks

CM is absorbed poorly by the body and its effectiveness is dependent upon the cells ability to absorb it. The poor absorption rate of CM requires the creatine user to ingest large dosages of creatine to achieve desired effect. CM uses the process of osmosis to permeate or enter the muscle cell. Due to the high acidity of CM and its poor solubility, your body uses water to try to help it be absorbed and buffer its harmful pH.

	CM	CEE	BC	CDP
Good Solubility	-	Yes		Yes
Low Acidity	-	-	Yes	Yes
Bloating	Yes	No	Yes	No
Toxicity	-	Poetential		No

This means that the CM must draw large amounts of water to it to help it dilute into solution so it can pass through the cell membrane. Because creatine draws water to the cell, and because most ingested CM is not absorbed well, unabsorbed creatine will sit outside of the target cell with the water, and this will result in the "creatine bloat." Furthermore, creatine can quickly convert to useless creatinine in a hot, acidic environment.

In essence, the problems associated with CM stem from its two main downfalls: 1. Poor solubility, 2. High acidity.

The solutions that have been brought to market, each solves one of these issues both nothing to-date has solved both. The two most popular are creatine ethyl ester and buffered creatine. Creatine Ethyl Ester (CEE): Creatine Ethyl Ester is Creatine Monohydrate with an ester attached. The esterification of creatine allows it to enter the cell easier increases its efficiency.

In other words, CEE makes the creatine more soluble, which allows for more of it to enter the cell. The problem is by adding an alcohol group to the creatine molecule, the alcohol may get deeper into tissues than before and may potentially build-up, causing a potential long-term toxicity issue from regular usage. Buffered Creatine (BC): Buffering creatine by blending it with an alkaline compound (sodium carbonate) increases its pH, helping to solve the acidity problem as CM has a very acidic pH of 3.5 (7.0 is neutral). Popular buffered creatine has a pH of The Future of Creatine about 10.0 which is very alkaline. However, BC is as extremely alkaline from neutral as CM is acidic. Too far a pH change in any direction causes metabolic problems as the all body's enzymes (which control every metabolic function including muscular contraction) only work in a very narrow pH range.

Summary of Creatine's Drawbacks

Gastric Distress: Creatine monohydrate is not very soluble (doesn�t dissolve in solution) and often causes gastric distress such as cramps, bloating and diarrhea due to unabsorbed creatine in the gut and intestine. This distress is caused because the body draws water into the small intestine to help dissolve the CM in solution and buffer the low pH. CM is also highly acidic at a pH of 3.5. This acidity can also cause gastric distress, cramps, bloating and even diarrhea because the body draws water into the small intestine to help dissolve the CM in solution and buffer the low pH.

Dehydration: The water being pulled from the blood into the intestines is also what contributes to potential hydration problems associated with CM. Requires

A Large Dose To Be Effective: The effectiveness of CM is dependent on the cells� ability to absorb it. Therefore, poor solubility requires that you use large dosages (up to 20g/day) to get an effective amount into your muscles.

Degradation: Creatine can quickly degrade into useless creatinine when it is introduced into solution. The increased acidity and heat in the gut can quicken this reaction. Therefore, buffering the acidity can be critical in getting creatine into the body before it is destroyed.¹ ²

Taste: The high acidity leads to a strong bitter, offensive taste.

Buffering the can greatly improve its palatability.
