Creatine monohydrate is the most researched sports supplement in history. It's a natural compound that helps your muscles produce energy during heavy lifting or high-intensity exercise. Your body naturally produces creatine, and it's also found in foods like red meat and fish, but supplementation ensures optimal levels for performance benefits.

Take 5g (one scoop) daily. You can take it any time, with or without food. Consistency is more important than timing. Mix with 8-12 oz of water, juice, or your favorite beverage. Some people prefer taking it post-workout with a protein shake, while others take it in the morning with breakfast. The key is daily consistency.

Creatine monohydrate is one of the safest supplements available, with decades of research supporting its use. It has been studied extensively in populations ranging from adolescents to the elderly. Some people may experience minor water retention initially, but this is temporary and actually beneficial for performance. Always consult with your healthcare provider before starting any new supplement regimen.

Most users notice improved strength and endurance within 1-2 weeks. Full muscle saturation typically occurs within 3-4 weeks of consistent daily use. Some people choose to "load" creatine by taking 20g per day for 5-7 days to saturate muscles faster, but this isn't necessary if you're patient. The standard 5g daily dose will achieve the same saturation levels within a month.

Absolutely! Creatine is equally effective and safe for women. It helps build lean muscle, improve strength, and enhance recovery without causing bulk. Women typically have 70-80% lower creatine stores than men, making supplementation potentially even more beneficial. Studies show women experience the same performance benefits as men.

No, you don't need to cycle creatine. Research shows it's safe for long-term daily use. Your body doesn't build a tolerance to creatine, and there's no benefit to cycling on and off. Consistent daily supplementation maintains optimal muscle saturation levels for ongoing benefits.

You may see a 2-4 pound increase on the scale initially due to increased water retention in your muscles. This is not fat gain - it's your muscles holding more water, which actually improves their function and appearance. This intramuscular water retention contributes to strength gains and gives muscles a fuller appearance.

Yes, creatine works well with other supplements. It's commonly combined with protein powder, pre-workout, BCAAs, and other performance supplements. There are no known negative interactions with common sports supplements. Many athletes stack creatine with their regular supplement routine for enhanced results.
