guanidin-
opropionicacid

Guanidinopropionic acid is a creatine monohydrate analogue and commonly found in products containing creatine. Guanidinopropionic acid may help regulate insulin function and is a popular addition to products containing creatine monohydrate.* Insulin triggers the body to make new muscle tissue from dietary protein and supports the uptake of creatine into muscle tissue, which is why athletes like to spike insulin levels after a hard workout.

Studies on guanidinopropionic acid suggest that it may be useful to athletes in a number of ways such as:

• Helping to improve insulin function*
• Promote weight loss*
• Improve your muscles ability to contract*
• Increase your body's creatine uptake*
