Description
Creatine monohydrate is a white, crystalline, water-soluble powder. Creatine occurs naturally in human muscle and tissue, but can also be synthesized from cyanamide and sarcosine.
Creatine consists of amino acids and plays a role in replenishing energy reserves in muscle cells – it affects the renewal of ATP (adenosine triphosphate), the main energy carrier in the human body. A huge advantage of creatine monohydrate is that it has a high creatine content, and is also almost completely absorbed in the digestive tract.
