Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What is creatine monohydrate and what does it do?
A: Creatine monohydrate is a naturally occurring compound that helps your muscles produce ATP, your body's main energy source for short, explosive movements. It supports muscle strength, power, performance, and muscle building when combined with resistance training.
Q: How many capsules should I take per serving?
A: 2 capsules = 1 serving = 2.5g of creatine monohydrate.
Q: How long will one bottle last?
A: The bottle contains 300 capsules / 150 servings. If you take 1 serving daily, it lasts 150 days. If you follow the label directions of 2 capsules twice daily, it lasts 75 days.
Q: When should I take it — before or after workout?
A: Take 2 capsules with a meal twice daily, for example with breakfast and after training. Consistency matters more than exact timing. Taking it with a carbohydrate-rich meal can help with retention.
Q: Do I need a loading phase?
A: No, loading is optional. You can take the standard maintenance dose daily and your muscles will saturate over 3-4 weeks. Some people choose to load with a higher dose for 5-7 days to saturate faster — follow the label dose unless advised otherwise by a professional.
Q: Is this safe? Is it banned in sports?
A: Creatine monohydrate is one of the most researched sports supplements. This product is Banned Substance Tested. It is intended for healthy adults 18+. If you have a medical condition or take medication, consult your doctor first.
Q: Will creatine cause bloating or weight gain?
A: Creatine draws water into muscle cells, which can cause a small increase in scale weight (usually 1-2kg) in the first few weeks. This is intramuscular water, not fat, and is part of how it supports strength and performance. Staying well hydrated helps.
Q: Can women take creatine?
A: Yes. Creatine is suitable for healthy adult women doing resistance training, except during pregnancy, trying to get pregnant, or nursing.
Q: Can I take it with whey protein or pre-workout?
A: Yes. Creatine works well alongside protein and most pre-workouts. Just avoid taking it at the exact same time as a very high-caffeine dose if you find it affects absorption, and stay hydrated.
Q: How long until I see results?
A: Most people notice improved strength and training performance after 3-4 weeks of consistent daily use combined with regular resistance training
