MyProtein Creatine Monohydrate,Powder - 1KG

Product Information

The most commonly studied form of creatine in the literature is creatine monohydrate [ 53]. The uptake of creatine involves the absorption of creatine into the blood and then uptake by the target tissue [ 53]. Plasma levels of creatine typically peak at about 60 min after oral ingestion of creatine monohydrate [ 7]. An initial rise in plasma creatine levels, followed by a reduction in plasma levels can be used to indirectly suggest increased uptake into the target tissue [ 53]. However, the gold standards for measuring the effects of creatine supplementation on target tissues are through magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS), muscle biopsy, stable isotope tracer studies, and/or whole body creatine retention assessed by measuring the difference between creatine intake and urinary excretion of creatine [ 53].

Creatine monohydrate is the most effective ergogenic nutritional supplement currently available to athletes with the intent of increasing high-intensity exercise capacity and lean body mass during training. Given the role of creatine in metabolism, performance, and training adaptations; a number of researchers have been investigating the potential therapeutic benefits of creatine supplementation in various clinical populations. The following highlights some of these applications. Creatine synthesis deficienciesDevries MC, Phillips SM. Creatine supplementation during resistance training in older adults-a meta-analysis.
