Creatine monohydrate ultra-pure - 1 kg

Creatine monohydrate for regular high-intensity strength training in adults

Creatine is an organic acid that the body synthesises from amino acids. Around 95% of it is stored in skeletal muscle to provide rapid energy during short, intense exertion. For example, during power training or sprinting the body draws on these creatine reserves. The creatine from Unimedica is a sports supplement for adults who engage in intense physical activity. The ultrafine powder (particle size 200 mesh) dissolves very well in liquids. It is odour- and taste-neutral and is produced from high-quality, vegan raw materials.

High-purity, ultrafine creatine powder (200 mesh), without additives

Our creatine powder consists of pure creatine monohydrate without any additives. The extremely fine 200 mesh powder meets our requirements for very good solubility and a neutral odour and taste.

When it comes to increasing strength

Creatine, discovered in 1832 by Eugène Chevreul as a component of meat broth, plays a role in energy metabolism. It is involved in the regeneration of the energy carrier ATP (adenosine triphosphate). This is crucial for supplying energy to the muscles during short, intense exertion with brief recovery periods.*

If more energy from the stores is available to the muscles, this can contribute to improved performance during maximal muscle exertion. In this way, creatine increases physical performance during repeated short-term high-intensity exercise. This effect requires a daily intake of 3 g of creatine. The same daily dose of creatine, taken daily, can enhance the effect of strength training on muscle strength in adults over 55 years of age.*

Which foods provide creatine?

Creatine occurs naturally in fish and meat. Plant foods do not supply creatine, but they do provide the amino acids (arginine, methionine and glycine) from which the body synthesises creatine. These amino acids are especially found in nuts, particularly peanuts, in legumes such as soybeans, in oats and in spinach.

Who benefits from creatine powder

A creatine powder supplement from Unimedica can be useful for adults who train intensively on a regular basis. If the goal is increased strength during intensive strength training, 3 g of creatine per day as an additional sports supplement can help improve performance. The included measuring scoop ensures clear, simple dosing.

In the first weeks of use the scales may show 1 to 3 kilograms more. This is completely normal and is due to water retention in the muscle cells.

Range of effects*

Creatine increases physical performance during repeated short-term high-intensity exercise when 3 g of creatine is consumed daily.

Daily intake of creatine can enhance the effect of strength training on muscle strength in adults over 55 years of age. The positive effect is achieved with a daily intake of 3 g of creatine in combination with strength training that allows a progressive increase in training load and is performed over several weeks at least three times per week at an intensity of at least 65%–75% of the one‑repetition maximum.
