Creatine monohydrate is one of the most widely studied sports-nutrition ingredients. Your body naturally makes creatine and also gets some from food. Supplemental creatine can increase the amount of creatine stored in muscle.
What does creatine do?
Creatine helps support the rapid energy system used during short, high-intensity efforts such as resistance training and sprinting. Research on creatine monohydrate has focused heavily on exercise performance and training adaptations.
Consistency matters
Creatine is generally used consistently rather than only on workout days. Some products describe an optional loading phase followed by a lower daily maintenance amount. Always follow the directions on the specific product you use.
How can you take it?
Unflavored creatine monohydrate can be mixed into water, juice, or a shake. Timing is usually less important than following the product directions consistently.
Who should ask a healthcare professional first?
If you are pregnant or nursing, under 18, have a medical condition, take medications, or have questions about whether a supplement is appropriate for you, speak with a qualified healthcare professional before use.
