BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The invention of this application relates to supplements and, more particularly, to supplements that help improve the physical characteristics of the muscles. It has been found that these supplements work well when used for human muscles and, therefore, it will be described in connection with human applications. However, the invention of this application has broader applications and should not be limited to only human uses.
Thousands of athletes are sidelined by serious injuries to their muscles each day. Whether the injury is a minor pulled muscle or a serious torn hamstring, these injuries are troublesome to all athletes.
These injuries can happen when the muscles are not properly warmed up before hard physical exercise or exertion even in the well trained athlete. Often, many younger athletes believe they are impervious to injury and often do not fully warm their muscles before or during athletic practices. This can result in short term and long term injuries that can plague an athlete for the next game or for an entire season.
While it has been found that proper stretching and warming up of the muscles can prevent these injuries, that is not always the case and injuries often sideline the best of athletes.
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
The invention of this application relates to supplements and, more particularly, to supplements that can be used to prevent muscle trauma and/or to increase muscle performance.
In greater detail, the supplements of this application balance the muscle's chemistry to deter hyper-contraction of the muscle and/or to improve the performance of the muscle.
According to one aspect of the invention of this application, the supplement includes an effective amount of cinchona bark or quinine.
According to another aspect of the invention of this application, the supplement further includes other ingredients that can be used to improve the chemistry of the muscles. In one embodiment, these other ingredients are calcium, magnesium and manganese.
According to a further aspect of the invention of this application, the supplement can include an effective amount of a quinine or cinchona bark in a raw state before refinement, a processed state, and/or any derivatives thereof.
According to yet a further aspect of the invention of this application, a method of administering the supplement is provided wherein the supplement is administered before, during exertion or exercise and/or after the physical activity.
The foregoing, and more, will in part be obvious and in part be pointed out more fully hereinafter in conjunction with a written description of preferred embodiments of the present invention set forth below.


DESCRIPTION OF PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
In one embodiment, the present invention relates to a supplement and a method of using and/or administering the supplement to improve the performance of ones muscles and improve the effectiveness of a workout or physical activity. This can be achieved by using cinchona bark or quinine to balance the chemistry in the muscles of the body before or during exercise or exertion.
Further, it has been found that cinchona bark or quinine can be a conductor to improve the performance of other supplements to improve muscle chemistry during physical activities. This has been found to work especially well to prevent muscle damage that is often caused when athletes do not properly warm up and/or stretch. However, it has also been found that the use of the supplement according to one or more aspects of the present invention can have a beneficial effect even when athletes properly warm up and stretch by increasing the effectiveness of these activities and/or reducing the amount of time needed for both.
As is known in athletics, practice is important and physical activity is important to improve ones endurance, muscle tone and abilities; however, the time needed to prepare for such physical activity is often considered to be wasteful since this preparation time does not add to ones physical abilities. As a result, athletes often spend too little time stretching and warming up to help maximize the time that can be used for strength training and practicing for a sport. Over the years, it has been found that this is foolish, but when time is at a premium, athletes often use only a minimal time for proper warm up.
This is especially true for the people that use physical activity for only weight loss and muscle tone.
By using the combination of herbs and minerals of the supplement of this application, the muscle chemistry can be balanced and hyper-contraction of the muscle can be minimized. It has been found that the balance of the minerals in your muscles is important to muscle health. When this balance is off, muscle problems often arise such as muscle pulls, muscle spasms, muscle strains and other muscle problems. However, when muscle chemistry is properly balanced, these conditions are minimized or eliminated.
The muscle can be compared to a guitar string wherein it is stretched tight and the muscle moves calcium from one end to the other during physical activity. By using a mixture of the supplement of this application, this tight string can be relaxed at least some to prevent it from overstretching which can result in an injury. This relaxing of the muscle is from balancing the chemistry of the muscle according to the invention of this application. At least in part, this balance of chemistry is a balance of the mineral content of the muscle which has been found to greatly reduce the likelihood of muscle damage or strain during physical activity.
In one embodiment, the supplement includes cinchona bark in any one of a number of forms. This can include, but is not limited to, red, yellow and brown cinchona bark hereinafter collectively referred to as cinchona bark.

It can also improve the body's ability to eliminate waste products, thus boosting immunity and defense. This, and other embodiments, can be enhanced with other products including, but not limited to, nutritional products such as whole or multi-grain ingredients.
In yet another embodiment, the supplement can be used to increase concentration skills and can be used to increases libido and anatomical function, male and female. This is accomplished by the supplements ability to increase blood flow throughout the body. This increased blood flow not only improves the function of the muscles, but also improves the function of other parts of the body which can benefit from improved circulation. This can also include improvements to thyroid function.
Not only has it been found that the supplement of this application can improve one's physical activity or prevent damage to the body, it has also been found to increase muscle recovery after exercise. This can be the regeneration of the breakdown of muscle tissue during normal exercise and also the healing of muscle damage during exercise.
In view of the improvements to circulation and body performance, the supplement of this application is also believed to have an affect on the cancerous cells and their growth. In this respect, and as is known, a strong body is better able to fight cancer and the growth of cancer cells. As a result, the supplement of this application may prevent or treat cancer.
The supplement of the invention of this application can be used to prevent or deter muscle damage or trauma as the muscle is warming up and/or during exercise. Since the muscle gets more oxygen or blood flow, there is a reduced chance of damage during warm up. Further, this improved flow improves muscle chemistry which can improve the effectiveness of physical activity. In addition, the invention can also reduce the heart rate during physical activity wherein it has been found that the heart rate can be reduced by between 2 percent and 15 percent. This reduction in the heart rate also improves the effectiveness of the physical activity by maintaining the body's system in a more ideal condition. In yet other embodiment, the supplement is configured to reduce the heart rate wherein it has been found that the heart rate can be reduced by between 2 percent and 8 percent by reducing the amount of cinchona bark.
Further, the supplement of this application can provide additional oxygen so that this oxygenation reduces the amount that the heart needs to work; making it more efficient to achieve the same amount of oxygen and/or blood in the system which at least in part produces the reduction of the heart rate.
In yet other embodiments, the supplement of this application can be used to have a thermogenic effect to stimulate the body's burning of fat. This effect increases the metabolism of the body's adipose tissue, generating heat.
The increase in blood flow and body performance can also improve the pores of the skin by increasing the blood flow through the skin which could help prevent acne or heal acne.
In yet another embodiment, more than one supplement can be used for a given activity. More particular, the supplement can come in different forms for different states of the activity. This can include a first supplement configured to get the body prepared for physical activity. This first supplement would have a higher dosage of cinchona bark and/or any other supplement. For example, this first supplement could have a dosage of between approximately 2.0 and 3.0 grams of cinchona bark which will quickly start the beneficial effects of the supplement. This could then be followed by a second dosage that would be in the range of approximately 1.0 and 2.0 grams of cinchona bark to maintain the body. This could then be followed by other dosages; however, as can be appreciated, the number of doses would affect the amount per dosage. The same is true for the other ingredients wherein the first dosage would be nearer to the high side of the ranges stated above and the second or following dosage would be approximately half the dosage to maintain the body's increased performance.
As can be appreciated, these dosages in stages could have a wide range of alteration without detracting from the invention of this application. This can include a third stage which is configured for muscle healing which would include more of the supplements that are tailored to muscle healing and regeneration.
Further, the invention of this application could also come in the form of a kit which includes these different states of dosages. Also, this kit could be configured for a specific type of physical activity. As can be appreciated, the physical activity of weight lifting can be different than that of long distance running wherein the weight lifting kit could be a stronger and shorter dosage while distance runners would use smaller dosages or even a patch version of the invention as opposed to a quick nasal dosage. These kits can be in the form of multiple dosages of an effective amount of the supplements according to at least one embodiment of this application in disposable packages having each dosage in a separate compartment within the package. These separate compartments can be separately sealed compartments wherein each dosage can be removed without disturbing the seal of other dosages. These dosages can be in any form which is known in the art and/or which is referenced in this application. This can include, but is not limited to, individual pills, individual packets of liquid or even individual packets of a powder. In yet other embodiments, these individual packets can be configured to be added to a liquid such that the dosage administered before, during or afterwards, become a plurality of dosages taken each time the user takes a drink. As can be appreciated, the supplement of the invention of this application could be the drink itself.
The kit according to another aspect of the present invention can include instructions printed thereon or printed within the kit. As can be appreciated, these kits could also be packaged as a plurality of kits sold at one time. An example is a weeks worth of kits or even a month worth of kits being packaged together. The user of the supplements of this application provided in kit form could then just remove one kit at a time which would represent use for a single workout regimen or any other physical activity. The user would then take each dosage at the designated time relative to the workout or physical activity.
This can include providing a kit having more than one dosage of the supplement of this application and the use of these supplements would include the steps of taking a first dosage from the kit having a first effective amount of the supplement a set time before the particular physical activity;
performing a physical activity;
Then, during this physical activity, taking a second dosage from the kit having a second effective amount of a supplement according to one or more embodiments of this application. This second dosage can be the same or similar to the first dosage or could be a different embodiment of this application. The second dosage can compliment the first dosage and/or can maintain the enhancing effect of the first dosage relating to the muscle chemistry during the particular physical workout. This can include improving blood flow and the oxygenation of muscles;
The kit could also include a third dosage for after the workout.
In yet other embodiments, one or more of the “dosages” could be replaced with multiple smaller dosages which can be used to maintain a more even flow of the supplement through the body and the kit can include these multiple dosages.
In yet other embodiments, these pluralities of first, second and/or third dosages, can include one or more ingredient that are incrementally increasing and/or decreasing. For example, the amounts of the ingredients that promote blood flow and the pre-oxygenation of the muscles can start high, such as a first dosage of between 0.20 and 0.40 grams of cinchona bark wherein the subsequent dosages of cinchona bark can taper off to less than 0.10 grams for the final dosage. Similarly, the ingredients configured to rebuild damaged tissue, such as calcium, manganese, and magnesium, can be administered in higher amounts in the later dosages.
While considerable emphasis has been placed on the preferred embodiments of the invention illustrated and described herein, it will be appreciated that other embodiments and/or equivalents thereof can be made and that many changes can be made in the preferred embodiments without departing from the principles of the invention. Accordingly, it is to be distinctly understood that the foregoing descriptive matter is to be interpreted merely as illustrative of the invention and not as a limitation.
