Creatine is one of the most researched and effective supplements for strength, muscle growth, and overall performance.

Here are some key benefits of creatine:


1. Increases Strength & Power

  • Boosts ATP production, the primary energy source for short bursts of intense activity.

  • Helps lift heavier weights and push through high-intensity workouts.


2. Enhances Muscle Growth

  • Supports muscle protein synthesis, leading to increased muscle size over time.

  • Increases water retention in muscle cells, making them look fuller and more defined.


3. Improves Exercise Performance

  • Aids in high-intensity training, sprinting, and resistance workouts.

  • Enhances explosive movements like jumping, sprinting, and lifting.


4. Aids in Faster Recovery

  • Reduces muscle damage and inflammation after intense workouts.

  • Speeds up recovery between sets and between workout sessions.


5. Supports Brain Health & Cognitive Function

  • Provides energy to the brain, improving focus, memory, and mental clarity.

  • It may help reduce mental fatigue and improve overall brain performance.


6. Helps with Hydration & Endurance

  • Pulls water into muscle cells, improving cellular hydration and endurance...which means you could see the scale go up a touch due to water retention...but not to fret..

  • Can aid in thermoregulation (temperature control during exercise).


7. May Benefit Aging & Longevity

  • Helps preserve muscle mass and strength as you age.

  • Supports neurological function and cognitive health in older adults.


How to Take Creatine:

  • Most common type: Creatine Monohydrate (best-researched and cost-effective).

  • Dosage: 3-5g daily for maintenance

  • Best time to take it: Post-workout with a meal, but consistency matters more than timing...I take it with my morning "cocktail" or with gummies mid-morning..


I've been supporting this brand for a few years now...
