Creatine Gluconate is the newest type of creatine and will probably turn out to be the most effective form to hit the supplement market. Developed by Bruce Kneller exclusively for Gaspari Nutrition, this is actually the ionic salt of a creatine ion bonded to a glucose ion. The result is that you have something that gets absorbed into the system in much of the same way glucose does (easily and almost completely), mixes very well into water, tastes great and more importantly, if likely to be the most effective creatine ever made. The reason for this is as elegant as it is simple: Most of the delivery systems used to get creatine into the blood and muscle from the GI track use a 'single stage delivery system' - they work, some work very well, but they don't provide optimal or maximal delivery.
For example Creatine Ethyl Ester (CEE) uses the ethyl ester to deliver the creatine into the bloodstream (and it does this very well) but when the molecule splits into ions, you are left with creatine (good) and ethyl alcohol/ethanol (not so good). There is no "afterburner" affect to push the creatine into the muscle cells faster or with more "force". The creatine "gets into the muscle cells" at less than an optimal or maximal rate. But with Creatine Gluconate, the glucose is the delivery system. It is absorbed well from the GI track into the bloodstream and when "the split" occurs, you end up with creatine and glucose (much better than alcohol) and glucose causes a nice insulin spike to help push itself, along with the creatine, into the muscle cells with "more force" and much faster. This two staged delivery system is unique among all creatines on the market. Just remember where you saw it first.
SizeOn also contains a unique, proprietary, patent-pending oligosaccharide called Outlast which is a low glycemic, complex carbohydrate that has deliberately been bioengineered to have some unique properties similar to amylase/amylopectin mixes except without the "clumping" associated with those types of mixes. Gaspari Nutrition is the very first (and only) company to license Outlast for use in their product line and you can expect to see Outlast in more Gaspari products in the future. It tastes very good, mixes well into water and juices but more importantly, it is a "slow carb" - it takes a long time to be fully absorbed. In fact, it takes about 8 hours for this carb to fully make it from gut to plasma causing a constant and sustained energy supply. This is the perfect carbohydrate for those who need long term energy - triathletes, cyclists, marathoners, etc. But is also is a fantastic carb for those who need sustained energy levels beyond 45-60 minutes (like glucose or sucrose or maltodextrin provide you) to have those "mega-workouts". Interestingly enough, a constituent of Outlast™ has been demonstrated to actually assist in preventing the accumulation of adipose tissue along the flank and belly and it also has a positive neuropsychiatric effect - making it the first nootropic carbohydrate blend. Outlast™ is a quality source of energy but it's unique nature also helps you stay focused and motivated.
SizeOn also contains Disodium ATP. ATP is the energy source of all cells. It is not known if exogenous ATP sources are directly absorbed into the muscles (we know they do go right into the liver though) but irrespective of this, Disodium ATP is a useful product as it causes a profound insulinogenic effect and has a positive impact on insulin sensitivity through its effects on the prurine system.
SizeOn also contains a powdered form of glycerol; Glycerol Monostearate. Bodybuilders have long touted glycerol as a great supplement to give you that "tight, shrink wrapped look". It will "pull interstitial water into the intracellular cytosol" to give you a pump that will blow your mind! However, since most forms of glycerol are fluids, it has been difficult to incorporate this into a supplement. Glycerol Monostearate is the first powdered, solid glycerol to ever be incorporated into a cell volumizing (or any) supplement! SizeOn also contains a host of other cyto-volumizing constituents like 4-hydroxy-isoleucine, corosolic acid, a whopper dose of calcium, all three branched chain amino acids in the correct, optimum ratio along with a 100% daily supply of all water soluable vitamins.
SizeOn mixes effortlessly - a single scoop dissolves effortlessly into 16 ounces of water or juice. It comes in two delicious flavors - Arctic Lemon Ice and Wild Berry Punch. It is easy to use - just a single dose during or after a workout or even just before bed and you are good to go. It's the first cell volumizing product that doesn't have any loading phase - if you use SizeOn you will see amazing results within 24-48 hours and a single dose lasts for up to 72 (or in some cases, even longer) hours. This is why we say it is the "fastest acting, longest lasting cell volumizer ever".
SizeOn is perfect alone but it also stacks well with Gaspari SuperPump 250 for a "one-two" knock out punch that is unbeatable in the industry. Just use a serving of SuperPump 250 thirty minutes before you hit the gym and then take SizeOn during or after your work out. The mind boggling pumps, the increased muscle belly size and the seemingly endless energy will blow your mind and blow up your physique to new heights.
