|
Creatine Ester Phosphate Sodium
|
Creatine bonded with a phosphate molecule |
An excellent
supplement choice for athletes and bodybuilders. Creatine is a bioactive
compound involved in the energy transfer in muscles. (A preliminary study in
humans suggests creatine ester phosphate sodium may be a more bioavailable form
of creatine.) Creatine is the most researched ingredient for bodybuilders and
athletes.* |
Helps promote
exercise-athletic performance. Helps increase strength and power. Plays a role
in the production and maintenance of ATP, the fuel needed for muscle
contractions. Plays a key role in energy transfer and energy flow.* |

Monohydrate |
Creatine
|
| N-Acetyl Cysteine |
Amino
Acid
|
Antioxidant
|
NAC reinforces the body’s natural antioxidant defenses.*
|
|
L-Leucine |
Amino
Acid
|
BCAAs are considered essential amino acids because
human beings cannot survive unless these amino acids are present in the diet. BCAAs are the only
amino acids that are directly metabolized in the muscle as opposed to the liver, supplying a direct
source of nitrogen to the muscle for various physiological functions.*
|
Branched Chain Amino Acids help support
muscle nitrogen and a free amino acid pool during exercise.*
|
| L-Isoleucine |
Amino
Acid
|
| L-Valine |
Amino
Acid
|
| Taurine |
Amino
Acid
|
Taurine is an amino acid-like compound and a
component of bile acids, which are used to help absorb fats and fat-soluble vitamins. Taurine
also helps to maintain heart health and maintain cell membrane stability.*
|
L-Taurine plays a role in the physiologic
processes in the muscle.*
|
| L-Tyrosine |
Amino
Acid
|
L-Tyrosine is a nonessential amino acid (protein building
block) that the body synthesizes from phenylalanine, another amino acid. Tyrosine is important
to the structure of almost all proteins in the body.*
|
Tyrosine supports the thyroid gland and is essential
for proper thyroid functioning.*
|
| Caffeine Anhydrous |
Natural
Alkaloid
|
Promotes Energy, central nervous system
stimulant.*
|
Great before working out, caffeine fights fatigue
and helps you get ready for your workout.*
|
| White Willow Bark |
Herb
|
White Willow Bark was used traditionally by herbalists to promote a variety of health
benefits.*
|
White Willow Bark contains important constituents,
including salicin, a natural substance that provides a holistic solution to today’s physical lifestyles.*
|
| Vinpocetine |
Herbal
Compound
|
Vinpocetine is a chemical substance synthesized
from vincamine, a natural constituent found in the leaves of Vinca minor (lesser periwinkle).
|
Involved with the chemical processes in the brain.*
|
| L-Arginine, L-Glutamine
with Alpha Ketoglutaric Acid (AKG)
|
Amino Acid
Complex
|
L-Arginine and L-Glutamine are two of 20 amino
acids. L-Arginine plays a role in human nutrition. L-Glutamine is a conditionally essential amino acid.
It becomes an essential amino acid at times of metabolic stress.*
|
L-Arginine is a nitric oxide inducer and supports
circulation of nutrients during exercise. L-Glutamine is an energy precursor and protein building block.*

AMPED
ECN FAQ'S
1.
WHAT IS AMPED ECN?
MET-Rx®
researchers developed Amped ECN to cover the most important pre and post-workout
concerns of serious athletes.* Unlike conventional sports supplements that focus
on only one area such as strength, energy or circulation — Amped ECN harnesses
the power of several bioactive factors to provide multi-level support by
combining ingredients that have both short and long-term effects.*
2. HOW
DO YOU TAKE AMPED?
For
adults, two scoops of Amped ECN should be mixed approximately 30-60 minutes
before an intensive workout. Half of the Amped ECN should be consumed shortly
after mixing and consume the balance throughout the course of your
high-intensity training session.
Read
all label directions carefully prior to use.
3.
WHAT'S IN AMPED?
Amped
ECN contains the latest and greatest ingredients to hit the exercise community
in years, divided into 4 proprietary blends:
- Pumped
Blend: Combines the well researched Creatine Monohydrate with the hot
new ingredient, Creatine Ester Phosphate Sodium, into one powerful blend
along with N-Acetyl Cysteine.
- Nitro
Blend: Combines the only three known Branched-Chain Amino Acids
(Leucine, Isoleucine, Valine). These amino's support nitrogen levels.*
- Neuro-Energy
Blend: Features over 1600mg per scoop of cutting edge ingredients such
as Taurine, L-Tyrosine, Caffeine Anhydrous, White Willow and Vinpocetine.
- NOS Blend:
Packed with both free form L-Arginine and L-Glutamine in combination with
Alpha Ketoglutaric Acid.

WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN WHEN I TAKE AMPED ECN?
Forget
those other sports supplements! With Amped ECN you'll get the benefits of energy
support. With continued use along with careful attention to your exercise
program, you'l notice the results. Here's how the proprietary blends work to
help make things happen:
- Pumped
Blend: This blend is mainly focused to assist you to achieve your long
term effects.* Creatine has been shown to help you crank out reps during
high-intensity exercise.* With continued use, this unique blend can support
strength, power and recovery.*
- Nitro
Blend: There are only three Branched-Chain Amino Acids, and they are the
only essential amino acids that are not directly metabolized in the liver.*
By supplementing with these important aminos, you help to support nitrogen
levels for several physiological functions.*
- Neuro-Energy
Blend: This blend combines dual effects by providing energy
magnification for both the mind and the body.* The link between the
mind/body and exercise performance can't be separated, which is why Amped is
designed to support this critical issue.*
- NOS Blend:
NOS Blend supports Nitric Oxide Synthase, which is responsible for
supporting circulation of oxygen and other nutrients throughout the body.*
This specially-formulated blend may work synergistically with the other
proprietary formulations through its effects on nutrient delivery.* The NOS
Blend also contains Glutamine, which is the most abundant amino acid in both
the blood and muscle.*
5. WHAT
IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN CREATINE AND AMPED?
There
actually is no comparison between Creatine and Amped ECN. Not only does Amped
include Creatine Monohydrate, which is traditionally used in most creatine
products, it also contains Creatine Phosphate Ester Sodium (CPES). CPES is
rapidly becoming one of the hottest creatine products to hit the market in
several years. Creatine, as creatine monohydrate, is simply attached to water.
On the other hand, creatine as CPES is bonded at the molecular level to both
phosphate and sodium ions. In the muscle, creatine is stored as creatine
phosphate. Amped ECN is also much more then just a creatine supplement. By
combining 4 proprietary blends into one explosive product, Amped supports Nitric
Oxide Synthase, nitrogen levels, extreme energy and more!* No traditional
creatine product can even compare.*
