Creatine oral supplementation using creatine hydrochloride salt
View Patent ↗Creatine oral supplementation using creatine hydrochloride salt, that may be added to a liquid or other beverage, or may be also used as an additive to solid oral dosages, or as a supplement, and which may be consumed by the athlete, or other party looking for immediate supplementation of strength, and may be added as a supplement within feed to livestock, in the veterinary area.
1. A supplement to increase muscle mass and muscle performance consisting of creatine hydrochloride salt formed from the reaction product of:
about 0.8 to about 1.2 mole equivalent creatine monohydrate; and
about 1.1 to about 1.4 mole equivalents acetyl chloride,
dissolved in about 6 to about 10 milliliters alcohol solution per gram of creatine hydrochloride salt at a temperature of about 25° C. to about 35° C.,
wherein the supplement has an aqueous solubility of at least 150 mg/ml.
2. The supplement of claim 1 , wherein the reaction product is formed from:
about 1 mole equivalent creatine monohydrate; and
about 1.4 mole equivalents acetyl chloride dissolved in about 10 milliliters ethanol solution.
3. The supplement of claim 2 , wherein the supplement is precipitated as granules and then packaged into an oral dosage form.
4. The supplement of claim 1 , wherein the supplement has an aqueous solubility of at least an order of magnitude higher than the aqueous solubility of creatine monohydrate.
5. The supplement of claim 1 , wherein the yield of creatine hydrochloride salt is approximately 94 percent.
6. A supplement for to increase muscle mass and muscle performance consisting of creatine hydrochloride salt formed from the reaction product of:
about 1 mole equivalent creatine monohydrate:
about 1.4 mole equivalents acetyl chloride;
said creatine monohydrate and said acetyl chloride dissolving in about 10 milliliters ethanol solution at a temperature of about 25° C. forming a solution of creatine hydrochloride having an aqueous solubility of at least 150 mg/ml; and
thus precipitating granules of creatine hydrochloride salt from the solution for oral dosage as one pill, capsule, tablet, or liquid.
7. The supplement of claim 6 , wherein the yield of creatine hydrochloride salt is approximately 94 percent.
