MuscleTech Creatine Peptide 447: Bigger Gains with Better Deliverability

MuscleTech Creatine Peptide 447

The newest innovation from MuscleTech comes in the form of Creatine Monohydrate. This isn’t just your average run-of-the-mill creatine product. MuscleTech has utilized PepForm technology from Glanbia to improve the absorption and bioavailability of their Creatine Monohydrate.

Before we dive into the supplement facts panel of MuscleTech Creatine Peptide 447 we want to inform you on what the “447” means in the title of this supplement. The “447” refers to a 12-week study that looked at two groups. The first group was given a placebo while the second group supplemented with 6g of Creatine Monohydrate over the 12-week period. In that 12-week period the control group that used 6g Creatine Monohydrate daily obtained 4.47x more lean muscle mass than those in the placebo group.

Creatine Monohydrate – 3g

Creatine Monohydrate is one of the safest, most effective and most studied sports nutritional supplements in history. To our knowledge, well over 600 studies have been completed on Creatine Monohydrate. Creatine is naturally occurring in things like red meat. Creatine Monohydrate has been studied for its ability to improve muscle mass and increase metabolic activity. Recent studies have looked at the improvement in cognition (focus and memory) and have determined it improves that as well.

Creatine monohydrate plays a critical role in cellular energy metabolism, specifically in the regeneration of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) — the primary energy currency of the body. This allows you to improve athletic performance and potentially gain strength and lean muscle mass.

The standard “rule of thumb” for Creatine Monohydrate is 5g taking daily. We like to see 3-5g taking daily (everyday). 

PepForm Creatine Peptide – 3g

PepForm is a patented peptide carrier technology developed by Glanbia Nutritionals to enhance the solubility and bioavailability of amino acids and bioactive compounds. In this case users are getting additional Creatine Monohydrate that has been combined with the hydrolyzed whey protein isolate from Glanbia to increase the effectiveness of the creatine. 

L-Tyrosine – 1g

Users are going to get a full gram of the non-essential amino acid Tyrosine in this formula. Users are already getting a cognition boost from the Creatine Monohydrate, and by adding in an additional one gram of Tyrosine, which can also improve cognition and memory, it may lead to better performance.

L-Theanine – 200mg

Theanine finds its way into this formula at 200mg. This is added to aid in improvement of cognition. It does this by increasing GABA, dopamine, and serotonin levels in the brain. The 200mg dosage is solid.
