For patented mixtures, this is more difficult<strong> because you do not know whether you have taken this effective dose<\/strong> or if only a smaller dose has been included in the patented mixture. It is precisely because of this that <strong>the consumer has no real idea of the composition of the patented mixture.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>An example of a product, which has well-labeled ingredients in the nutrition table:<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wpstatic.gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mageblog\/Photo3.jpg\" alt=\"tabu\u013eka nutri\u010dn\u00fdch hodn\u00f4t nepatentovan\u00e9 zmesi\" title=\"tabu\u013eka nutri\u010dn\u00fdch hodn\u00f4t nepatentovan\u00e9 zmesi\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Scientific studies have shown that<strong> the effective dose of creatine is 3-5 g \/ day.<\/strong> If you use creatine, you know that <strong>you can easily dose it<\/strong>.

Supplement composition protection<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Manufacturers most often use patented mixtures<strong> to protect the formula, the exact ratios and the amount of each ingredient<\/strong> from which the product is made. Companies thus protect their investments and <strong>prevent competition from copying formulas and proportions of components.<\/strong> For example, a company that spends a significant amount of <strong>finance for research and clinical trials<\/strong> to develop a truly effective mixture and prove to be better than other blends. In this case, the company should be able to demonstrate by research <strong>how and why the mixture is effective.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wpstatic.gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mageblog\/iStock-623897574.jpg\" alt=\"What are patented mixtures and are we deceived by nutritional supplement manufacturers?\" width=\"843\" height=\"562\" title=\"What are patented mixtures and are we deceived by nutritional supplement manufacturers?\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2. Misleading the consumer<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The use of the patented mixtures<strong> also has its other side.<\/strong> Through it, companies try <strong>to hide the fact that the formula contains very few active substances.<\/strong> The consumer thus thinks he has earned more than he paid. Mostly, however, manufacturers &#8220;enrich&#8221; this mixture with cheap ingredients instead of the more expensive and high quality. However, we believe that most manufacturers <strong>are trying to process their products as well as possible<\/strong> and to be as transparent as possible to their customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wpstatic.gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mageblog\/iStock-488641122.jpg\" alt=\"What are patented mixtures and are we deceived by nutritional supplement manufacturers?\" width=\"843\" title=\"What are patented mixtures and are we deceived by nutritional supplement manufacturers?\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>As we have already indicated,<strong> it may not be immediately hidden lies or pulling the nose behind the patented mixture.<\/strong> There are also companies that really<strong> want to provide the market with an innovative and efficient product.<\/strong> In this case, the company is willing to invest in scientific studies to confirm the effectiveness of the ingredients. Therefore, it should be noted that if you are going to spend your hard-earned money for a supplement, you should verify that it actually works and whether<strong> a study has been conducted<\/strong> that promotes the effectiveness of a particular mix.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Whatever the intent, these <strong>patented mixtures<\/strong> are added to supplements, we do not think they will ever be totally excluded from this industry. While it is true that moving away from them could bring some benefits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wpstatic.gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mageblog\/iStock-667015964.jpg\" alt=\"What are patented mixtures and are we deceived by nutritional supplement manufacturers?\" width=\"843\" title=\"What are patented mixtures and are we deceived by nutritional supplement manufacturers?\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Are_they_innovative_or_not\"><\/span>Are they innovative or not?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Internet offers<strong> a number of scientific studies on nutritional supplements and their effectiveness.<\/strong> Of course, companies also produce and sell products that are without the patented mixtures. These are valuable to them and often bring<strong> great sales thanks to their transparency.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Interestingly, for some products that <strong>contain patented mixtures, the exact amount of each component is indicated.<\/strong> It is only <strong>the decision of the manufacturer.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wpstatic.gymbeam.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/mageblog\/iStock-868079508.jpg\" alt=\"What are patented mixtures and are we deceived by nutritional supplement manufacturers?\" width=\"843\" height=\"562\" title=\"What are patented mixtures and are we deceived by nutritional supplement manufacturers?\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>True innovation limits patented mixtures, at least in the nutritional supplement industry.<strong> Mixtures give companies an excuse not to innovate and improve.<\/strong> However, this is a huge mistake that <strong>any supplement manufacturer who wants to provide people with quality products<\/strong> should avoid. Instead of trying to compete with nutritional supplements by providing<strong> the most effective products<\/strong> (and proven by studies) &#8211; the fitness industry is a cluster of &#8220;before&#8221; and &#8220;after&#8221; photos, ridiculous marketing slogans and reputable people who claim how the product works.
