Why we chose this

Why we chose creatine monohydrate.

Creatine is the single most-studied performance supplement in existence. Over 500 peer-reviewed trials across three decades document effects on strength (+5–15%), lean mass (+1–2kg over 4–12 weeks), cognitive function under sleep deprivation, and long-term safety at daily doses up to 30g in healthy adults (Kreider et al. 2017, ISSN Position Stand).

What we rejected.

• Creatine HCl, ethyl ester, buffered, nitrate. Marginal or no advantage over monohydrate. More expensive per gram. The evidence base is 10-50x thinner. Pay more for less proof.
• Electrolyte blends. Mixing electrolytes into a creatine scoop is adjacent to proprietary-blend behavior. Customers cannot tell what dose of what they are getting. We refuse to turn our label into a guessing game. Electrolytes belong in a separate drink if you want them.
• Artificial sweeteners (sucralose, ace-K, stevia extracts). Shortcut to hiding creatine's natural grit. We will not shortcut flavor at the cost of clean label.
• Dextrose / maltodextrin bulking. Fillers that inflate the scoop and dilute the message.

Our dose rationale. 5g daily. No loading phase required (20g x 5 days is optional, same end result). One scoop = one 5g serving. 30 servings per tub = one month of consistent use, which is the window where the effect becomes measurable.

Our supplier. Creatine monohydrate sourced through Supliful (FDA-registered, GMP-certified, USA manufacturing). Every lot carries a third-party Certificate of Analysis published on the product page within 14 days of receipt.
