METHOD FOR REDUCING MUSCLE FATIGUE THROUGH ADMINISTRATION OFADENOSINE TRIPHOSPHATE

摘要

Systems and methods for delivering oral administration of ATP in a manner th at protects the ATP from degradation by gastric juices through enteric coating to enhance absorption into the blood stream and provide additional therapeutic benefit when compared with non-protected forms of ATP. Said systems and methods comprising a composition used for improving muscle torque and reduci ng muscle fatigue, said composition comprising an effective amount of ATP. Preferably, a gastric acid secretion inhibitory coating is applied to the effective amount of ATP in a manner that protects the ATP from degradation b y gastric juices. Said systems and methods effecting intracellular and extracellular ATP concentrations and increasing human performance by reducin g muscle fatigue and recovery time which comprises administering an effective amount of ATP to a human. Alternatively, an effective amount of ATP may be administered sublingually, thereby avoiding exposure to gastric juices. The effective amount of ATP may be delivered by means of a tablet, granules, microgranules or powders.
