Creatine hydroxycitric acids salts and methods for their production and use in individuals

Abstract

Methods of production for Tricreatine Hydroxycitrate are disclosed. Tricreatine hydroxycitrate can be used as supplemental dietary ingredient for the purposes of reducing adiposity, suppression of appetite, improvement of muscle and exercise performance and recovery. The salts are useful in the dietetic, food supplement and food industries.

1 . A hydrosoluble salt of creatine and hydroxycitrate of the formula:  
       
         
           
           
               
               
           
         
       
     
     
         2 . The hydrosoluble salt of  claim 1 , wherein the salt has a molecular weight of 547.07.  
     
     
         3 . The hydrosoluble salt of  claim 1 , wherein the salt has a melting point of about 290° C.  
     
     
         4 . A method for at least one of promoting increased muscle and exercise performance in individuals, reducing and/or preventing adiposity, improving exercise recovery and suppressing the appetite of an individual leading to weight loss, the method including the step of consuming a supplemental dietary composition containing creatine hydroxycitric acid in the form of an isolated hydrosoluble salt of creatine and hydroxycitrate.  
     
     
         5 . The method of  claim 4 , wherein the salt has a molecular weight of 547.07.  
     
     
         6 . The method of  claim 4 , wherein the salt has a melting point of about 290° C.  
     
     
         7 . A supplemental dietary composition for at least one of promoting increased muscle and exercise performance in individuals, reducing and/or preventing adiposity, improving exercise recovery and suppressing the appetite of an individual leading to weight loss, the supplemental dietary composition including creatine hydroxycitric acid in the form of an isolated hydrosoluble salt of creatine and hydroxycitrate.  
     
     
         8 . The supplemental dietary composition of  claim 7 , wherein the salt has a molecular weight of 547.07.  
     
     
         9 . The supplemental dietary composition of  claim 7 , wherein the salt has a melting point of about 290° C.
