CREATINE MONOHYDRATE

Creatine monohydrate : molecular formula C4H9N3O2, is an organic compound naturally present in the body and present mostly within muscle tissue and to a small extent in the brain.

It is mainly used to improve sports performance and increase muscle mass , creatine monohydrate in fact increases physical performance in successive short sessions of high intensity exercise; this is in the face of a daily intake of at least three grams.

The peculiarity of creatine and what makes it the perfect supplement even for competitive athletes is that, being a natural compound and already present in the body, it is in no case considered as doping. Taking creatine, from a supplement, to be clear, is like simply maintaining a highly specific diet for high performance.

A high property of creatine is to increase water retention at intramuscular level, this keeps the muscle tissue hydrated and especially for bodybuilders or for those who seek a more defined muscle volume is undoubtedly an advantage. It is less suitable for those who already suffer from water retention, naturally unlike the muscle mass that is built during the intake of creatine, the effects, positive and otherwise, of water retention are cancelled out once the creatine intake has ended.

WHEN TO TAKE IT:

It is preferable to approach the workout with creatine already readily bioavailable at a muscular level, it is therefore good to take it about thirty/forty minutes before training, to further improve performance even before taking creatine (about 1:30 H before training) it is good to take an energy supplement, such as maltodextrins with medium Dextrose Equivalence (DE).

There Creatine in fact it contributes to the maintenance of muscle glycogen reserves, improving performance during intense efforts, endurance during prolonged ones and post-workout recovery.

Improved muscle recovery capacity is often an underestimated aspect, however athletes know the importance of good recovery which allows, with the same amount of time available to train before a competition, to do more and better quality workouts, often leading to better results.

Creatine foodboost It's pure creatine monohydrate 100% contains no additives of any kind, this makes it easy to dose, since 3g of creatine foodboost correspond to 3g of pure creatine monohydrate .
