The Benefits of Super Creatine Plus   by John Vance

Creatine, is a wonderful product with a long history of research and documented results to prove its worth. In fact, creatine is the most popular sports supplement in the world. So, you could imagine my surprise to discover recent research concerning several bad effects of creatine supplementation upon the body. This research points to the fact that the body is a poor utilizer of supplemental creatine in the diet. In fact, creatine is quickly broken down into a by-product that is toxic to our birds, this toxic bi-product is called Creatinine.

How fast is the breakdown? Less than five minutes. That is right in less than five minutes, over 90% of supplemental creatine (after it has been diluted in fluid or enters the stomach via ingestion) will break down into by-products that are toxic to our birds. This means that in order to get 1/2 gram of creatine built up through supplementation, your birds must consume 5 grams of creatine. This also means that the body must flush out approximately 4.5 grams of toxic by-products, which greatly increases the stress on the liver, kidneys, pancreas and other internal organs.

Now for the good news: Super Creatine Plus is manufactured using proprietary manufacturing processes. We have blended our creatine ingredient* (manufactured through a patented process that protects the creatine at a microscopic level) with certain additional ingredients (manufactured under additional license), so that there is near 100% utilization of Super Creatine Plus by the body. Do you know what this means? Fanciers no longer need to load up your birds for several weeks, with inferior creatine products, in order to build up creatine reserves in their birds, for the endurance racing we demand of our birds during the race season. With Super Creatine Plus, you are eliminating the toxic waster associated with Creatine Usage and the side effects that stress the bird's liver and other internal organs with massive amounts (95%) of the creatine breakdown toxin, creatinine.

Our product does not convert to creatinine so your birds won't experience the toxic side effects associated with other creatine products on the market. Since it does not break down into creatinine, it is available immediately so no loading is required in preparing your birds for the races. Also, our product, Super Creatine Plus, helps to neutralize lactic acid build up so the birds can continue to race over longer periods of time at a higher level of performance!

After a long period of negotiations, we were able to secure a license for the patent protected creatine source we use in Super Creatine Plus. To our knowledge, we are the only animal product licensee in the world for this ingredient. However, we did not stop there, our research had shown that the particular needs of racing pigeons require additional ingredients for peak performance on race day.

The method of delivery to racing pigeons is vastly different than the delivery system for human athletes. Our racing pigeons begin their athletic event after being confined in crates for 12 - 36 hours. Human athletes, often compete within an hour of consuming a performance product, therefore, you just cannot treat racing pigeons like human athletes, you need to tailor the product and its delivery system to the specific challenges of racing pigeon competitons. We identified a select group of ingredients that would deliver

To that end, we researched how to improve the delivery of our performance ingredients, in such a way that race day results were maximized. After much research we contacted one of the top sports nutrition manufactures in the USA and negotiated a license of their proprietary manufacturing process. It is not enough that one has the raw ingredients, Super performance depends upon how the ingredients are delivered and taken up by the bird's system.

Our ingredients are manufactured in such a way that they are taken up and reserved for use by the birds in a superior manner. That is why we call it Super Creatine Plus, it not only contains the best creatine product but has a unique blend of specially manufactured ingredients that ensure sustained muscle function during a race competiton.

You might still be wondering if Super Creatine Plus is really good for our birds and increases their ability to sustain muscle function during a race. The answer is yes, before, during and after the race the beneficial effects from Super Creatine Plus are producing results. Creatine is stored in the body as creatine phosphate and creatine phosphate is broken down during exertion to aid the primary energy source for the muscles - adenosine triphosphate (ATP).

ATP is broken down for cell usage to adenosine diphosphate (ADP) supplying the energy for muscle contraction and usable phosphate. This usable phosphate is found in substantially higher concentrations in top marathon racers when compared to those who merely finish in the pack. Creatine phosphate is not the only source of phosphates available to the body, but it is the preferred and most efficient conversion process for muscle delivery during athletic events. Other phosphate delivery systems often involve cannibalizing the bone structure and organs which is one reason for slow recovery after an event.

Not only do we have the superior creatine ingredient, but our unique blend of specially manufactured ingredients ensure that highest utilization of ATP by the muscles of the racing pigeon during the race. These additional ingredients, maximize the utilization of our creatine ingredient and maximize the presence and utilization of ATP during the race. This unique combination of licensed ingredients, super charges muscle performance on race day.

Let my try to explain how this all works, using the combustion engine found in automobiles as an example.

If your car is running on all cylinders, then the engine is using the least amount of energy to move the automobile the maximum distance at the required velocity. If for some reason the car starts to run on less that all cylinders, then less cylinders are doing the work, the engine starts to overheat and it becomes progressively harder and harder to maintain velocity. As less and less cylinders do the work, more and more fatigue is experienced by those cylinders which continue to carry the work load, eventually the fatuigue leads to engine failure.

This is exactly what happens during flight to the breast muscles of our birds. As cells experience more and more difficulty cycling ATP (The jet fuel of muscle cells) each cell needs more time between cycles and other cells fatigue under the additional effort needed to maintain competitive flight. The bird begins to produce more heat and fatigue as the race goes on and eventually the muscles experience fatigue failure. What Super Creatine Plus does is to optimize the delivery of the raw materials and coordinate their use in the most efficient manner, so that the engine (muscles) are in top form and the ATP cycle (refining of jet fuel by the cells) continues at maximum efficiency.

The active ingredients in Super Creatine Plus, shorten the recovery time need by muscle cells before they can again contribute to powering flight. The end results is that your birds have more muscle cells functioning more often throughout the time period of flight, allowing the engine to run cooler, expend less effort per stroke, and produce less muscle fatigue by-products, then their competition. Super Creatine Plus, through its unique blend of licensed ingredients, give you the "racer's edge", and gives your birds the ability to fly at their highest performance levels throughout the duration of the race.
