Also known as: creatine monohydrate, micronized creatine
Naturally occurring compound that provides rapid energy for high-intensity exercise by replenishing ATP. The most researched and evidence-backed sports supplement available.
Well-researched ingredient for strength and power output. Effects are dose-dependent (typically 3-5g/day creatine monohydrate). Other creatine forms have less evidence.
Emerging evidence for cognitive benefits under stress, sleep deprivation, or in vegetarians. Brain studies typically use 5-20g/day, higher than standard athletic dosing.
Always consult your healthcare provider before combining supplements with medications.
