Creatine Monohydrate 1000mgVitakruid

Creatine in your daily diet
Creatine is a naturally occurring substance in the body, partially obtained through our diet and partially produced by our body from the amino acids: arginine, glycine, and methionine. However, the amount of creatine present in our diet is very limited. Creatine Monohydrate contains 1 gram of creatine per tablet. To obtain these amounts through your diet, you would need to consume 100 grams of herring (6.5-10 grams per kilo) or 233 grams of beef (4.5 grams per kilo) daily.

Creatine stimulates muscle growth during explosive strength efforts
Creatine helps improve performance during explosive strength efforts, with a daily intake of at least three grams. Additionally, it stimulates the growth of lean mass during high-intensity exercises, such as sprinting or weightlifting. Creatine is therefore ideal for athletes who want to get the most out of their training. 

Creatine provides more strength during explosive strength efforts
Creatine helps improve performance during explosive strength efforts with a daily intake of at least three grams. Moreover, it supports the growth of lean muscle mass during intensive activities such as sprinting and weightlifting. It is therefore an excellent addition for athletes who want to maximise their training.

Mechanism of action of creatine
During high-intensity exercises, our body uses ATP as an energy source. However, the supply of ATP in our cells is limited and needs to be replenished quickly. Creatine phosphate plays a crucial role in the rapid regeneration of ATP.

Our own body produces creatine phosphate, although research shows that we can increase the creatine phosphate supply in the muscles by an average of 20% with creatine supplementation. This increased supply provides more muscle strength during physical exertion.

100% pure Creatine Monohydrate
Research shows that Creatine Monohydrate is the most effective form of creatine. In this variant, each creatine molecule is linked to a water molecule, which provides extra stability. Moreover, Creatine Monohydrate dissolves well and is easily absorbed by the body.

Particle size of 200 mesh
Our creatine tablets are formed from extremely fine and pure creatine powder thanks to an advanced micronisation process to a particle size of 200 mesh. This means that the powder is made so fine that it fits through a sieve with 200 openings per square inch. This fineness guarantees a consistent particle size, resulting in a concentrated product. Thanks to the particle size of 200 mesh, the tablets offer the same optimal absorption as our creatine powder. 

Improving the absorption of Creatine Monohydrate
When the Creatine Monohydrate tablets are taken with a sugar and/or protein-containing drink, this can further enhance the absorption of Creatine Monohydrate in the body.

Research indicates that creatine is better absorbed when taken with sugars. This effect is likely caused by insulin, a hormone released when consuming sugars and proteins. Insulin not only supports the absorption of sugars into the cells but also plays a role in improving creatine absorption.

However, for optimal absorption of Creatine Monohydrate, a significant amount of sugar is required. Researchers have therefore looked into whether part of the sugar could be replaced with proteins. They discovered that this combination further increased creatine retention in the body.

To maximise absorption, we recommend combining creatine with sugars and/or proteins. A good option is to take creatine with a piece of fruit and our Elite Whey Protein.

Creatine Monohydrate tablets for convenience
Creatine Monohydrate can sometimes be a bit tricky to take, as you always have to mix it with water. Therefore, there is now the Creatine Monohydrate in tablet form, perfect for on the go. The main difference between the tablets and the powder is the dosage: each tablet contains 1 gram of creatine, while one scoop of powder delivers 3 grams of creatine. To achieve the desired effect, it is necessary to take 3 Creatine Monohydrate tablets.

This way, you benefit from the same scientifically supported advantages, but with the convenience of a tablet. Ideal for anyone who wants to dose their creatine intake easily and accurately, without having to mix or weigh.
