Your body's been making creatine since before you could walk.2 It lives in your muscles, quietly topping up the energy you burn through short, intense effort: sprinting for the bus, the last few reps, anything that asks a lot of you in a short window. We just give it a hand with a single dose of creatine monohydrate, the most researched form there is.2,3
At least 3g of daily creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise.1
Getting older doesn't have to mean getting weaker. Daily creatine consumption can enhance the effect of resistance training on muscle strength in adults over the age of 55.4
Losing weight and losing muscle aren't supposed to be a package deal. Resistance training can help you hold onto muscle while losing weight quickly.5

When you lose weight quickly on a GLP-1 medication, you're not just losing fat. Clinical data suggests 25 to 39% of that weight can be lean mass, made up largely of muscle, which affects strength, metabolism, and how well you keep weight off long term.6
A 2024 review of supplement use during GLP-1 therapy landed on a straightforward conclusion. Daily creatine, paired with resistance training, belongs in the plan itself, not as an optional add-on.5

Creatine intake from food alone is much lower than the amounts studied in supplementation, which means most people have room to benefit. Baseline creatine stores tend to be lowest in older adults and in vegans and vegetarians, who get little to no creatine from their diet.5
Adults over 55 who want to help maintain strength and muscle as they age, alongside regular resistance training.
Anyone who trains regularly and wants to support exercise performance.
Creatine monohydrate is the most researched and bioavailable source of creatine. Each serving (3.45g) contains 3g of creatine from creatine monohydrate, which is the dose required to achieve the physical performance and muscle strength benefits above.*

Creatine is a compound naturally found in muscle cells that helps the body produce energy during intense activity. This product uses creatine monohydrate, the most researched and bioavailable form.7
3.45g daily, taken consistently, is the dose needed to achieve the benefits above.
Creatine's benefits are strongest when paired with resistance training. Used alone, it has no proven effect.
Creatine monohydrate is well studied and widely used alongside a range of medications. Like all food supplements, you should speak to your clinician for advice before starting a new supplement if you’re taking any medication.
Creatine is generally well tolerated. Some people notice mild stomach discomfort when starting, which usually settles when you spread your intake across the day or take it with food.
People with existing kidney conditions should speak to a clinician before starting creatine. If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, or on other medication, check with your clinical team first.
Each serving (3.45g) contains 3g of creatine from creatine monohydrate (minimum 87% creatine), with no added fillers, additives, or flavourings.
Ingredients: Creatine Monohydrate Powder (min 87% creatine).
One tub gives 90 servings, roughly a 3-month supply. This equates to 315g of creatine.
Creatine monohydrate is unflavoured, so it won't change the taste of whatever you mix it into. Most people stir it into water, but it works just as well in juice, a protein shake, or a smoothie if you'd rather not drink it plain.
If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, taking medication, or due for surgery, speak to your healthcare practitioner before use.
Not intended for people under 18.
Stop taking it and consult a doctor if you notice any adverse reactions.
Don't exceed the stated dose. This product isn't a substitute for a balanced diet or a healthy lifestyle.
Keep it out of reach of children, and don't use it if the seal is damaged or broken.
The powder's colour and appearance may vary slightly between batches, this doesn't affect quality.
