enhances physical performance during short, repeated, high-intensity exercise when taken in doses of at least 3 grams per day.

Creatine (methylguanidine acetate) was first isolated from meat in 1832 by French chemist and philosopher Michele Eugene Chevreul. He named his discovery creatine after the Greek word kreas, which means meat.2

Approximately 60-70% of creatine in our bodies exists in the form of free creatine, while the rest is present in phosphated form. 3

Creatine has been shown to improve athletic performance, making it one of the most popular supplements among weightlifters

Creatine enhances physical performance during short, repeated, high-intensity exercise when taken in doses of at least 3 grams per day. *

Since its introduction to the sports nutrition supplement market, creatine has been one of the most researched performance-enhancing substances. 1

Most of the creatine in our bodies is found in the muscles, with smaller amounts also present in the liver, brain, heart muscle, bones, and testes.

Our body also produces the amino acids arginine, methionine, and glycine in the liver and kidneys in amounts of approximately 1 gram per day. For athletes, this amount should be supplemented by 3-5 grams per day to get the desired extra effect. Creatine can be a good choice for strength sports, combat sports or athletics where explosive short-term exertion plays a major role.

It can be used by both women and men, taking into account the recommended uses and cautions.

In addition to improving athletic performance, the positive physiological effects of creatine are being explored in many areas of life, making it a versatile supplement for everyone.9
