Solution Overview

Problem

Current anabolic stimulation products for athletes often have undesirable side effects and are banned in many sports, necessitating a dietary supplement that promotes muscle growth and athletic function without these issues.

Innovation Solution

A nutritional composition containing PPAR and PGC-1α agonists, along with creatine derivatives and energy sources, to enhance anabolism and athletic performance while minimizing side effects.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Productivity

If traditional anabolic stimulation products are used, then muscle growth and athletic function are improved, but harmful side effects occur and they are banned in many sports

Engineering Contradiction:
Improvemuscle growth and athletic functionVSAvoidharmful side effects
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSObject-affected harmful factors

Solution Approach 1:

The patent changes the chemical parameters of anabolic stimulation by using natural compounds (resveratrol, piceatannol, quercetin, catechins, genistein) that activate PPAR and PGC-1α pathways, replacing traditional synthetic anabolic agents. This parameter change maintains anabolic effectiveness while eliminating harmful side effects and banning issues

Inventive Principle:
Principle #35Parameter changes

Solution Approach 2:

The patent introduces natural polyphenolic compounds as intermediary substances that mediate anabolic processes through PPAR and PGC-1α activation. These intermediaries (resveratrol, piceatannol, etc.) serve as safe alternatives to direct anabolic steroids, achieving muscle growth through a different biochemical pathway that avoids harmful effects

Inventive Principle:
Principle #24Intermediary (Mediator)

2Productivity

If energy sources and protein synthesis pathways are stimulated, then anabolism is promoted, but the complexity of the composition increases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveanabolic rateVSAvoidcomposition complexity
Core Design Contradiction:
ProductivityVSDevice complexity

Solution Approach 1:

The patent uses natural polyphenolic compounds that perform multiple functions: they activate PPAR receptors, stimulate PGC-1α expression, promote mitochondrial biogenesis, and enhance protein synthesis. This multi-functionality allows a single class of compounds to address multiple anabolic requirements without requiring complex multi-component formulations

Inventive Principle:
Principle #6Universality (Multi-functionality)

Solution Approach 2:

The patent creates a composite nutritional composition combining multiple natural polyphenolic compounds (resveratrol, piceatannol, quercetin, catechins, genistein) that work synergistically through common PPAR and PGC-1α pathways, achieving enhanced anabolic effects while maintaining compositional simplicity and natural origin

Inventive Principle:
Principle #40Composite materials
