Creatine monohydrate

Creatine monohydrate

— a substance whose molecule consists of a molecule of creatine and a molecule of water. The most popular type, which is also deservedly considered the most effective. Creatine monohydrate is virtually not destroyed in the stomach, most of it reaches the muscles in an unchanged form, and processing is slower than most other forms. This type appeared on the market relatively long ago, and since then new forms of creatine (kre-alkalyn, creatine phosphate, etc.) have been developed, for which higher efficiency is claimed. However, it is widely believed among sports nutrition professionals that these claims are purely a publicity stunt and are not true, and most scientific studies support this opinion.
