Team AAEFX,
Now that Im back from Germany (FIBO), I wanted to send you the results of the fourth Kre-Alkalyn
study, entitled Clinical Trial Comparison of Kre-Alkalyn vs- Creatine Monohydrate.
During this 4 month trial, numerous tests and measurements were performed to see if there truly was a
difference between two groups: one was administered Kre-Alkalyn and the other Creatine Monohydrate.
It should come as no surprise that the overall creatinine levels of the Kre-Alkalyn group were less than
those of the Creatine Monohydrate group. But... there were some rather significant differences, especially with
regard to factors that we wouldve never even considered or thought to examine.
For example, they found that cholesterol levels in the Creatine Monohydrate group were actually
slightly elevated, while the Kre-Alkalyn group was shown to have lowered cholesterol levels.
In my opinion, the other, and probably the most significant finding in this study, was Kre-Alkalyns
effect on V02 max. To the best of my knowledge, no other study has referenced V02 max related to creatine.
Just so you know, V02 max is the maximum volume of oxygen the body can consume during intense,
whole-body exercise, while breathing air at sea level. This volume is expressed as a rate, either liters per
minute (L/min) or milliliters per kg body weight per minute (ml/kg/min). Because oxygen consumption is
linearly related to energy expenditure, when we measure oxygen consumption, we are indirectly measuring an
individual's maximal capacity to do work aerobically. A high maximal oxygen consumption is one of the
hallmark characteristics of great endurance athletes in running, cycling, rowing and cross-country skiing, etc.
In a nutshell, both standard creatine and Kre-Alkalyn were shown to actually improve V02 max, with
Kre-Alkalyn showing the greater improvement of the two. Anyway you look at it, this is exciting information.
By the way, if any of you need to contact Flex Wheeler, remember that he wont return until next
Monday (April 21st) because he stayed over to make appearances for us in Poland.
All The Best,
Brian Andrews

The test group was administered capsules each containing 750 mg of Kre-Alkalyn. The
creatine monohydrate group was administered capsules each containing 750 mg of creatine
monohydrate. Both capsules were verified for purity by an independent lab.
Results:
Creatinine Levels In Urine:
Creatinine levels in the Kre-Alkalyn group were much lower than those of the creatine group.
The following chart (Fig. 1)* reflects the average % difference of creatinine levels in the Krealkalyn group versus the creatine monohydrate group.

Body Weight:
No significant differences were found between the two groups in body weight measurements.
Since these are endurance athletes who control their body weight, a significant difference
was not expected to be found.
Cholesterol:
Cholesterol levels for the creatine monohydrate group were elevated by .02.
Cholesterol levels for the Kre-Alkalyn group dropped by .08.
(This was a very interesting and significant discovery)
