VitakruidCreatine Monohydrate Tablets

Creatine monohydrate is a commonly used form of creatine that consists of creatine bound to a water molecule.

Creatine occurs naturally in foods such as meat and fish, including beef, salmon, and herring.

Creatine powder must be mixed with a liquid, while tablets have a fixed dosage and can be taken directly.

A loading phase is a period in which a temporarily higher amount is taken, after which it switches to a lower maintenance dose.

200 mesh indicates how finely the powder is ground. The finer the particles, the more evenly the product is distributed in the tablet.

Creatine monohydrate is the most used and simplest form of creatine. Other variants are often processed forms, but still contain creatine as a base.

Creatine is usually taken daily, both on training days and rest days. The timing is less important, as long as it is taken consistently. Some people choose a loading phase of 5 to 7 days with multiple intakes per day, after which they switch to a lower daily dose. Without a loading phase, the same level is gradually built up over a longer period.

When using creatine, it is possible that a bit more fluid is retained. Therefore, some people choose to temporarily stop using it a few weeks before a competition, depending on their personal goals.
