Magnesium Creatine Chelate, often abbreviated MCC, is a newer form of creatine that is chemically bonded to magnesium rather than a water molecule as in creatine monohydrate.
Contents
Uses
The idea behind MCC is that by using a different transporter to get the creatine to the muscle cells, less is lost in transport and broken down into the waste product creatinine. As such, the theory goes that using magnesium creatine chelate can lead to greater absorption of creatine into muscle cells with less bloating and side effects associated with creatine monohydrate.
Benefits
Magnesium creatine chelate can protect the creatine from this cyclization in the stomach’s acid environment, and make higher quantities of the active form of creatine available to the muscles for energy. Beneficially, the magnesium creatine chelate will serve to provide the body with bioavailable magnesium (an ingested dose of unchanged mineral that reaches the body’s circulation system). It will also work intensely to increase the muscle’s ability to generate and recycle energy in the form of ATP.
Creatine MagnaPower®, magnesium creatine chelate, is patented by Albion Laboratories® and proven by scientific research. Creatine MagnaPower performs better than creatine monohydrate. Creatine MagnaPower is the most advanced creatine ever created in science labs, and proven by scientific research.
