Abstract: Disclosed are compositions for improved oral delivery of creatine, methods of making such compositions, and kits comprising such compositions. In particular, the compositions are capable of dispensing a high dose of creatine in a convenient manner that does not require the consumption of liquids. The creatine is encapsulated in an emulsion matrix delivery system that contains a very low moisture level to keep the creatine in solid state, thus unexposed to moisture or acidic conditions, thereby preserving the creatine from hydrolysis, dissociation or other undesirable conversion into creatinine. The emulsion matrix of the delivery systems provides for minimized degradation of the functional creatine during preparation of the matrix and the storage of the final delivery systems, thereby ensuring shelf stability.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a technique of producing an ultra-concentrated liquid coffee that is shelf-stable at ambient temperature without the need for refrigeration or freezing. This invention further relates to a process for manufacturing ultra-concentrated stabilized liquid coffee with enhanced freshness, aroma and flavor retention without acidity or bitterness.
