This pure powder is a complex of one molecular creatine and one molecular water, so called creatine monohydrate (CM). Creatine has been clinically proven in many studies to increase muscle size and strength, to delay fatigue. It is popular in athletes and bodybuilders to improve athletic performance and endurance, maximize body’s energy production, replenish and recycle ATP quickly. Creatine also has the benefits to improve mental performance and neuromuscular health. Creatine is a component of skeletal muscle. There is about 95% of the human body’s total creatine located in skeletal muscle. It is also present in brain and heart. Creatine is a nitrogenous organic acid naturally produced in the human body (actually in all vertebrate) from amino acids L-arginine, glycine, and L-methionine, major in the kidney and liver. The produced creatine is then transported in the blood for use by muscles and other tissue. In humans and animals, there is about half of stored creatine originated from food, mainly from meat. Vegetarians show lower levels of muscle creatine, since vegetables do not contain creatine, but can get same level after taking creatine. The health benefits of creatine are derived from the mechanism of its role in the ATP (adenosine triphosphate) and ADP (adenosine diphosphate) cycle. ATP is the immediate energy source of muscle works. When muscle works, ATP decomposes to release energy for muscle works, and obtain ADP and one phosphate. Creatine combines with phosphate to get phosphocreatine. In intense muscle works, the fast way to get ATP is the bio reaction between phosphocreatine and ADP. One phosphate is transferred from phosphocreatine to ADP to obtain immediate energy form ATP, and release out creatine. Sufficiently stored creatine is helpful for the energy cycle.
Creatine Monohydrate is one of the most popular supplements used by people looking to build lean muscle mass, maximize performance and increase strength. According to survey data, over 40% of National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) athletes reported that they have used creatine. Creatine monohydrate is a natural substance that turns into creatine phosphate in the body. Creatine phosphate helps make a substance called adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP provides the energy for muscle contractions. The body is able to product some creatine by itself, and can also get creatine from some foods like red meat and oily fish. However, levels of creatine in food sources may be reduced during the process of cooking. Creatine monohydrate supplements are products that contain a very pure form of creatine and are often taken pre/post workout and/or with other supplements like whey protein.
How Does Creatine Monohydrate Work?
To understand how creatine monohydrate works you first need to know what ATP is and what it does. ATP is the immediate source of energy for muscle contraction. Muscle fibers only contain enough ATP to power a few twitches, additional ATP must be drawn from the body’s ATP “pool”. Creatine monohydrate is converted into creatine phosphate in the body to keep the ATP pool filled. What does this mean in the real world? Having a good reservoir of ATP available may help you lift heavier weights for more reps by providing your muscles with enough the fast-converting energy it needs for maximum performance. You’ll often hear this referred to as “explosive energy”.
Benefits of Creatine Monohydrate
Now that you understand how creatine monohydrate works you can probably already see some of the benefits of using it. Here’s a list of the possible benefits of taking creatine for someone who is doing intense resistance training (weight training) or a sport which requires high amounts of instant energy (for example a sprinter).
- Enhanced muscle mass/strength
- Increased muscle energy availability
- Increased power output (more sets/reps)
- Weight gain
- Enhanced recovery after exercise
FAQ:
Is Creatine Monohydrate Loading Required?
When creatine monohydrate first became a popular sports supplement many manufacturers recommended that you “load” their products for 5-7 days in order to get your muscles saturated with creatine thereby speeding up the results. This theory has never been proven in any scientific research and today most manufacturers recommend that you simply take 3-5g of creatine monohydrate daily.
What is Creapure® Creatine Monohydrate?
Creapure® is recognized in the supplement industry as the “gold standard” of creatine monohydrate manufacturers. Creapure® brand creatine monohydrate is manufactured in Germany and can be found in hundreds of creatine products sold worldwide. To find out if your creatine monohydrate powder or capsules have Creapure® just look for “Creapure®” in the nutritional information.
What is Micronized Creatine Monohydrate?
As the name suggests, micronized creatine monohydrate is regular creatine monohydrate powder that has been micronized. Micronizing is the process of grinding the powder to an ultra-fine form, usually about 20 times finer than regular powder. What this means is the creatine will dissolve in liquid much faster, and in theory, be absorbed by the body easier. If you’ve ever tried non-micronized creatine you’ll know that there can be a fair amount of “grit” in the bottom of the glass or shaker. This is creatine that hasn’t dissolved. This is vital creatine you need in your body, not in the bottom of a cup. Most creatine monohydrate supplements are now micronized. It’s recommended you always used a micronized product to get the best results.
SUGGESTED USE: 1 to 2 servings daily or as directed by a healthcare professional. For best results, take 30 to 45 minutes before and / or after training with 8-12 ounces of juice or high carbohydrate beverage. It is advisable to take this product in cycles: 4 to 6 weeks on, then 4 to 6 weeks off. Do not exceed 10 grams per day.
