Chemical Carbs

Many athletes will find times when they need to increase their calorific intake without increasing protein or fat. Sugars also present a problem due to the insulin spike they cause and the subsequent crash in energy levels. Athletes who wish to gain weight or endurance athletes with huge calorific expenditure are then left with one alternative,- complex carbs. The problem is finding a company that supplies a product that contains only complex carbs, without all the other additions normally found in carb formulas. Not any more!
Chemical Carbs is a maltodextrin-based product that supplies supplemental complex carbs for those who need a sustained supply of energy during grueling training sessions or to load for endurance events like triathlon, cycling or distance running. Athletes who wish to gain weight can add it to their protein shakes to increase their calorific intake without increasing fat. Meanwhile, any athlete that is on a specialized dietary regimen, e.g. a pre-contest bodybuilder, can use it to supply the required carbs without the normal variations encountered with solid food. Where appetite is a problem, for example during convalescence, it is the ideal solution. When athletes have to follow extreme dietary measures to make weight e.g. boxers and weight lifters, Chemical Carbs can be a convenient way of supplying the carbohydrate fraction of their permitted calorific
intake. Endurance athletes should try combining each 50 gram serving with 5 grams of Chemical Glutamine, taking this four times per day during their loading phase.
Sometimes a complex solution is best!

Chemical HMB

HMB has become the subject of an aggressively defended patent dispute in the United States. This serves to demonstrate how seriously the purveyors of this material view its worthiness. The subject of numerous medical trials, HMB has firmly established itself in the athletes' arsenal for the assault on catabolism. Oral HMB supplementation has been shown to partly prevent exercise - induced proteolysis and muscle damage from resistance training. Its' use also resulted in increases in strength and lean muscle mass! Although HMB (beta-hydroxy-beta-methylbutyrate) is a metabolite of the branched chain amino acid leucine and its' analog alpha-ketoisocaproate (KIC), indications are that plasma HMB is derived solely from leucine. The obvious exception to this would be when HMB is consumed as the end product i.e. where it occurs naturally. Catfish, alfalfa and grapefruit are three examples of natural sources, although it is found in only small amounts in these. Leucine itself only converts to HMB at the rate of about 5%, demonstrating that leucine supplementation would also be an impractical approach to boosting HMB levels. Not being subject to US patent restrictions, Chemical Nutritional Products are now fortunately able to offer
HMB to the serious athlete. Research has indicated that 1.5 - 3 grams per day in divided dosages was effective enough to deliver the previously mentioned improvements. We feel that, for hard training athletes, 3 grams per day taken around your workout is best.
With all the relevant research supporting HMB use, can you really afford not to use it?

Chemical Flapjacks

A great achievement in sports nutrition technology, Chemical Flapjacks were designed with one mainconsideration, -convenience. How many times have you arrived at the gym knowing that you may be running on empty? What do you do? Most snacks, besides having no nutritional value, will leave you feeling bloated and uncomfortable. However, you know that if you have nothing your workout could be compromised. The ideal answer is now here- Chemical Flapjacks, the final blow to junk food! No ordinary flapjacks, these are a snack-sized balanced meal without the usual digestion problems. With over 42 grams of predominantly complex carbs, they are designed to not only re-stock energy reserves but to keep them in top gear by
providing a sustained release of sugars. The small amount of saturated fat present (4.4 grams) takes back seat to the unsaturated MCTsand their positive influence on the glycemic rating of the product. To cap it off, 23 grams of easily digested protein will keep amino acids trickling into the bloodstream, helping to avert catabolism and improve recovery after the workout.
Available in Traditional, Chocolate Chip and Cherry and Almond, Chemical Flapjacks are the ultimate snack that can also be eaten between meals or simply when on the move.
Remember a calorie should never be just a calorie!

Chemical Creatine

By now, unless you have been missing from the planet for the last couple of years, you will be fully aware of the impressive list of benefits from creatine use. Increased ATP levels, contractile ability and muscle cell volume being the most recognized ones. However, there is a general conspiracy by most nutrition companies to conceal the single most important concern surrounding creatine use, - purity! A smoke screen has been thrown up by confusing you with less important issues such as speed of delivery, monohydrate, citrate or pyruvate and 'water content. With quality material there are less problems with delivery, reducing the need to consume hundreds of grams of sugars per day. Besides, many athletes cannot consume large amounts of carbs due to the dietary disciplines of their sport e.g.. making weight. On the subject of purity, we feel you need to know exactly what else you are absorbing from the material of unscrupulous companies. A recent survey that analyzed the material from 28 producers/distributors in the US, UK, Germany and the rest of Europe revealed that most products fell between 88 and 92% purity, despite their label claims. Chemical Creatine is 100% pure 

Chemical Joint Formula

New Chemical Joint Formula 'offers the most advanced joint protection technology that nutritional food science has to offer. Cutting edge ingredients have been blended to provide the ultimate insurance policy for the routine punishment that you put your joints through. Thankfully, one of the remarkable functions of articular cartilage is to replenish its major components in response to exactly this kind of punishment. This constant and ongoing synthesizing process often
generates extremely large demands for building blocks of collagen and
proteoglycans. However, if the raw materials for these building blocks are not available in the amounts required, the synthesizing process is impaired and the cartilage loses its ability to replenish itself. Chemical Joint Formula provides the raw materials that are essential for the synthesis of synovial fluid and the complete cartilage matrix including collagen, hyaluronic acid and the various modified sugar
chains of the glycosaminoglycans. Unlike corticosteroids and some anti-inflammatories which can damage chondrocytes, Joint Formula is not a drug; it is a true nutraceutical with outstanding safety. Chemical Joint Formula contains glucosamine sulphate and collagen hydrolysate, each having their own unique function in connective tissue synthesis. Collagen, an orally activeantigen, has also been shown to improve rheumatoid arthritis. Invest for the future with Chemical Joint Formula, - somewhere down the line your body will thank you
for it!

Chemical GABA

Gamma amino butyric acid or GABA, as it is known, disappeared from the scene almost as fast as it arrived. This coincided with the arrival of its big brother GHB, from which GABA is derived. GHB's effects were well known and dramatic, ultimately leading to its illegality and the overlooking of GABA. Make no mistake, GABA should not be overlooked! It shares many of GHB's positive effects without inheriting the dangerous ones. Numerous medical trials have proven that oral administration of GABA significantly elevates GH. What's more, GABA does this through a different mechanism to GHB-proof positive that it is a stand alone product and not merely a "watered down" version of its banned analog. GABA has also been shown to affect the hypothalamus-pituitary-testicular axis by regulating the feedback mechanism, increasing leutenizing hormone with resultant increases in testosterone. Its influence on ACTH JT and TSH have also lead to decreases in cortisol and elevations in thyroid hormones respectively. What does this manipulation of these hormones mean insimple terms? More lean muscle, more strength and less fat! Improvements in REM sleep and muscle relaxation have also been recorded, illustrating how this remarkable product can aid recuperation and thereby improve performance.
When working with top athletes, we have never overlooked GABA. Neither should you- the result could be costly!

Chemical Napalm

Chemical Napalm is a pre-workout, isotonic drink that has covered all the angles, so that you don't have to. Carbohydrates, in the form of maltodextrin and fructose, have been blended to provide a continuous release of energy throughout your workout, thereby avoiding the usual peaks and troughs associated with
most sugary, pre-workout drinks. Electrolytes have been balanced to present the same profile that occurs in the body's' own fluids, thus ensuring maximum hydration.
Krebs cycle intermediates have been coupled to the minerals, easing transport across cell membranes. An extract of a stimulatory herb, Guarana, has been combined with caffeine to give you a pre-workout boost and maintain focus.
Now you no longer have to worry about "hitting the wall". We've got a serious "solution".

Chemical Glutamine

Glutamine has fast become a product with a stand-alone reputation, and with very good reason. This is a reputation built on results and backed up by much medical research, something that can be claimed about few supplements. The most abundant amino acid in human muscle tissue, glutamine use is strongly indicated in periods of trauma and stress. Post-surgical conditions, wasting diseases such as cancer and trials involving stress responses to exercise, have all come up with the same results, - massive depletion of glutamine. We also know that low carbohydrate diets can have a disastrous effect on glutamine reserves, a point that deserves more than a little consideration by any athlete who has to restrict carbs or make weight. Its depletion due to gluconeogenesis during prolonged exercise is also well documented, as are the subsequent indications for use by endurance athletes. Likewise, power athletes have also been shown to suffer from low glutamine levels, demonstrating that glutamine depletion is not solely carbohydrate dependent. Uptake of glutamine by the gut, liver and kidneys as an energy substrate is the most likely culprit in these circumstances. Although glutamine has been demonstrated to elevate growth hormone, we know
that its ability to attenuate the catabolic actions of cortisol is independent of this activity. Improved immune function is also another direct result of glutamine influence on cortisol and circulating leukocytes. Chemical Glutamine is made from only the purest glutamine available and is not to be confused with inferior glutamine products. A daily dose of around 20 grams is best divided and taken in a carbonated, sugary drink first thing in the morning, post workout and at bedtime. You can also add 5 grams to your favourite protein powder or meal replacement formula to further boost glutamine reserves. Remember that gaining muscle is about the constant battle between the body's' anabolic and catabolic processes.
Chemical Glutamine can help tip the balance in the right direction.

Chemical Ergogen H.P.

An ergogen is anything that increases work output or capacity to deal with workload. That is exactly what Ergogen H.P. does. An effective creatine delivery system uses a customized matrix of sugars (dextrose, fructose,
oligosaccharides and maltodextrin) that not only provide a continuous supply of energy but also achieve the required insulin spike necessary for enhanced creatine uptake. Taurine has also been added to increase muscle cell volume in much the same way as creatine does. Lactate buffers create a more favourable PH for absorption as well as delay the onset of muscular fatigue. The anti-oxidants, vitamins C and E, also help here by dealing with the byproducts of muscular activity that would adversely affect performance. Carnitine converts fatty acids into useable energy. We have left nothing to chance in the design of this cutting-edge product. So how will all this affect your performance? Simple,- increased muscle fullness, explosiveness, strength and sustained output during your most strenuous workouts or events. We think you will agree, Ergogen does
what it says!
