KEY BENEFITS
Creatine Monohydrate is one of the most extensively studied supplements available and is widely recognised for enhancing strength [1], recovery [2], anaerobic capacity [3] and lean mass [4]. With this vast amount of research, creatine is an essential for athletes who want to maximise their high intensity exercise performance, muscle mass and physical recovery.
Creatine is a molecule that is naturally produced in the body and is also naturally found in food. Whilst not an amino itself, creatine is produced in the body from the amino acids glycine, arginine and methionine. Grenade® Essentials Creatine is 99% pure with no added fillers or bulking agents, providing an easily absorbed form of creatine.
Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise when a daily intake of 3g of creatine is taken.
RESEARCH
Creatine works by increasing the regeneration of adenosine triphosphate (ATP). ATP is the body’s energy source, however, these stores are limited and ATP has to be continually resynthesized, which can take a long time. Increasing the amount of creatine speeds up the regeneration of ATP, which leads directly to the release and availability of more energy.
