What the research says: The meta-analyses studied creatine monohydrate in general; the studies analysed contain no comparison of Creapure® with other creatine monohydrate. There was no effect on grip strength or leg press. Women and older adults were underrepresented in the studies; in them, the effects were smaller or not significant. Dosage and intake schedule differed between studies, in some cases with a loading phase. Meta-analyses show average values, not an individual result.
What is behind it
The product provides creatine monohydrate, a molecule that occurs naturally in the human body. In muscle tissue, creatine is bound to phosphate (phosphocreatine).
What creatine does
- Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3 g of creatine. The claim applies to adults aged 18 and over who do high-intensity training.
