ATP Nutrition Creatine + EAA + Citicoline 400 g red blood orange

This innovative dietary supplement is carefully formulated to synergistically support athletic performance, accelerate recovery while enhancing cognitive function. It is ideal for athletes, active individuals and those seeking comprehensive support for their physical and mental performance.

Ingredients

• Creatine Monohydrate: The most researched and effective form of creatine that increases energy availability for muscle cells.
• Essential Amino Acids (EAAs): A complete spectrum of nine essential amino acids that the body cannot make on its own (Leucine, Isoleucine, Valine, Lysine, Methionine, Phenylalanine, Threonine, Tryptophan, Histidine). These are essential for protein synthesis and muscle tissue repair.
• L-Citrulline Malate: An amino acid that is converted in the body to L-Arginine and then to Nitric Oxide (NO), which affects blood flow and nutrient transport.
• Citicoline (CDP-Choline): A neuroprotective substance and precursor to acetylcholine, a key neurotransmitter for memory, learning and concentration.

Function and mechanism of action:

• 1. Creatine Monohydrate: Increases muscle phosphocreatine stores, allowing faster recovery of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) - the primary energy currency for short-term, intense exercise. This extends the time that muscles can work at maximum intensity.
• 2. Essential Amino Acids (EAAs). In addition, leucine directly signals the triggering of MPS.
• 3. L-Citrulline: promotes nitric oxide (NO) production, which leads to vasodilation (widening of blood vessels). This improves blood flow to the muscles, increases oxygen and nutrient delivery, and removes metabolic wastes such as ammonia more efficiently.
• 4.Citicoline: increases the availability of choline for acetylcholine synthesis, improves the integrity of neuronal membranes, and supports brain energy metabolism. This leads to better cognitive performance.

Key Benefits:

• Increase in strength and performance: Creatine allows you to perform more reps and lift higher weights.
• EAAs are essential for the synthesis of new muscle proteins.
• Citrulline increases blood flow, resulting in better blood supply to the muscles and a more pronounced "pump effect" during training.
• Fatigue Delay: Creatine and Citrulline contribute to the reduction of fatigue at both the cellular and systemic levels.
• Improved Concentration and Mental Sharpness: Citrulline supports cognitive function, which can improve concentration during training and in everyday life.

Possible uses:

• Strength training and bodybuilding: To maximize strength, explosiveness and muscle growth.
• Endurance sports: To improve endurance, reduce fatigue and recover faster.
• Team Sports and Combat Sports: To increase performance in repetitive, intense activities and quick recovery between performances.
• People with demanding mental activity: Students, managers or anyone who needs to boost focus and mental alertness.
• General Vitality Support: For individuals who want to optimize their physical and mental performance in everyday life.
