Quick Summary
The most studied performance supplement — muscle, strength, and cognitive benefits
Also called: Creatine, Creatine Mono, Micronized Creatine, Creapure
What is Creatine Monohydrate?
Creatine monohydrate is the most researched sports supplement in history with over 500 peer-reviewed studies confirming its efficacy and safety. It increases phosphocreatine stores in muscle, enabling faster ATP regeneration during high-intensity exercise. Results in 5–15% increases in strength and power output. Recent research also demonstrates cognitive benefits, neuroprotection, and potential anti-aging effects. Creatine is naturally found in meat and fish but supplementation provides doses impossible to achieve through diet alone.
How It's Made
Creatine monohydrate is synthesized from guanidinoacetic acid via methylation. Micronized creatine has smaller particle size for improved solubility. Creapure® (German-manufactured) is the highest purity standard.
