Solution Overview

Problem

Existing beverages containing acetic acid, propanoic acid, and butanoic acid do not effectively increase human testosterone levels or achieve an anabolic effect, and their use as a drink is hindered by unpleasant odors, while lowering blood pH can lead to life-threatening acidosis.

Innovation Solution

A drink combining acetic acid, propanoic acid, butanoic acid, methylpropanoic acid, and methylbutanoic acid, with sugar, sweetener, or alcohol additives to mask odors, absorbed systemically to increase testosterone release without direct olfactory sensation, maintaining blood pH within healthy limits.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If acetic acid, propanoic acid, and butanoic acid are used in a beverage to increase testosterone levels, then the anabolic effect and testosterone release are improved, but the unpleasant odor becomes a harmful factor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvetestosterone increase effectVSAvoidunpleasant odor
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent introduces sugar, sweeteners, or alcohol as intermediary substances that mask the unpleasant odor of the fatty acids. These additives act as mediators between the active ingredients (acetic acid, propanoic acid, butanoic acid) and the consumer's sensory system, allowing the anabolic effects to be delivered without the negative olfactory experience. The masking agents do not interfere with the physiological absorption and action of the testosterone-boosting fatty acids.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Reliability

If acids are added to lower blood pH to achieve anti-inflammatory effects, then the anti-inflammatory environment is improved, but life-threatening acidosis occurs

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveanti-inflammatory effectVSAvoidblood acidosis
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent utilizes the natural metabolic pathway where the ingested fatty acids (acetic acid, propanoic acid, butanoic acid) are converted by the body into useful physiological effects including testosterone production and anti-inflammatory responses, rather than causing harmful acidosis. The body's metabolic systems transform these acidic compounds into beneficial hormones and signaling molecules, converting what could be harmful into therapeutic benefits.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #22Blessing in disguise (Convert harm into benefit)

3Reliability

If fatty acids are applied topically for fragrance effect to stimulate olfactory organ, then the sexually stimulating effect is improved, but the unpleasant odor remains a harmful factor

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveolfactory stimulation effectVSAvoidunpleasant odor
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSObject-generated harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent employs sugar, sweeteners, or alcohol as intermediary masking agents that conceal the unpleasant odor of the fatty acids while allowing the beverage to be consumed. This approach differs from topical application by using ingestible masking agents that can be absorbed systemically, enabling the fatty acids to reach their target organs through metabolic pathways rather than direct olfactory stimulation.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

AI summary

The invention relates to a beverage, containing water and at least one combination of the ingredients acetic acid, propanoic acid, and butanoic acid, and additionally the ingredients methylpropanoic acid and/or methylbutanoic acid. The testosterone release, or the androgen release in general, of a person is naturally increased by means of said beverage.
