Micronized Creatine with Cinnulin PF® is a blend of 200 mesh creatine monohydrate with Cinnulin PF® to improve effectiveness.*
You are probably already familiar with creatine, but there is more to the story than you may know. Creatine is an acid that is produced in the liver and made from three amino acids: arginine, glycine, and methionine. It supplies energy to muscle cells and helps recycle ATP energy. When ATP energy is spent, it becomes ADP; then creatine phosphate converts ADP back into ATP, and cycle continues. This process has many advantages, including increased muscular contraction time that allows you to work out harder before experiencing muscle failure. This system provides about 4-30 seconds of muscle energy before it needs to be replenished. Research suggests that creatine supplementation may promote anaerobic ATP synthesis for fast twitch type II muscle fibers.*1-4
Additional studies on creatine suggest that it may increase muscle strength, endurance, and recovery. According to the University of Maryland, studies suggest that creatine supplements supports both strength and lean muscle mass during short, high-intensity exercises such as weightlifting. Additional benefits include:*
A proprietary 100% water soluble extract of Cinnamomum burmannii, Cinnulin PF® is the only extract standardized for doubly linked Type-A Polymers, specifically tetramers and trimers, which are suggested by clinical research to have a host of health-supporting benefits. Cinnulin PF® has been observed to mimic the effects of insulin, thereby supporting glucose uptake and insulin signaling, already in healthy range. In a recent study, 83% of those given the active Type-A Polymers supported statistically lower body fat and promoted lean body mass.*5,6
The benefits of Cinnulin PF® when combined with creatine and exercise include:

I have only taken it for a couple day. I am taking it 4 times a day for my load, feel a little boated but not to bad compared to the GNC stuff. Tastes like cinnamon a tinny bit, and at the end it takes on a kind of bitter flavor. I give it a 4 just because i cant give it a 5 before i have been on it for longer. So far i feel lightly stronger while working out, i also feel alot "fuller" or more swoll when i am lifting. Great price really worth it.
