Each serving provides \u003cstrong\u003e3g of creatine monohydrate\u003c\/strong\u003e, the most extensively researched and proven form of creatine available. Creatine supports the regeneration of ATP (adenosine triphosphate) — the primary energy currency of muscle cells — making it directly relevant to strength, power output, and performance during high-intensity, short-duration exercise. 250g provides approximately 50 servings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCreatine monohydrate is one of the few sports supplements with a robust body of clinical evidence behind it. It is naturally found in small amounts in red meat and fish, but supplementation allows maintenance of optimally saturated muscle creatine stores, particularly for those with higher training demands or plant-based diets. Mixes easily with water, juice, or protein shakes. \u003cstrong\u003eBiethica\u003c\/strong\u003e is a UK supplement brand focused on clean, effective nutrition without unnecessary additives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSupplement Facts\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003ePer serving (3g \/ ½ heaped tsp)\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth\u003e%NRV*\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCreatine Monohydrate\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e3000 mg\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e—\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003e*NRV = Nutrient Reference Value. — = NRV not established.

Higher muscle creatine stores allow for more reps, more sets, and faster recovery between bursts of effort. The EU-authorised health claim states: \"Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high intensity exercise\" when 3g is consumed daily.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs there a loading phase needed?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA loading phase (taking 20g per day for 5–7 days) saturates muscle creatine stores faster, but is optional. Simply taking 3g daily will achieve full saturation within 3–4 weeks without the loading phase. There is no performance difference between the two approaches once fully loaded.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eIs this suitable for vegans?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eYes — creatine monohydrate is synthetically produced and contains no animal-derived ingredients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDoes creatine cause water retention?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCreatine draws water into muscle cells (intramuscular water), which contributes to the initial 1–2kg weight increase commonly reported. This is not subcutaneous (under-skin) water retention and is generally considered beneficial for muscle function and performance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow should I store this product?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eStore in a cool, dry place away from moisture and direct sunlight.
