Eat Me Creatine Monohydrate 350g

Kimmi: Jase, is there anything besides creatine in this?

Jase: No. The panel lists micronised creatine monohydrate as the only ingredient.

Kimmi: What’s the daily amount?

Jase: The supplied directions conflict: one section says 3–5 g daily, while another says 5 g twice daily after loading. That needs checking before use.

An unflavoured, New Zealand-made creatine monohydrate powder. One teaspoon is listed as 5 g.

Directions

Suggested Use: Take 3–5 grams of creatine monohydrate daily to replace what your body uses every day. You can personalize the rate within the range provided based on your size, muscle mass, and activity level. Creatine can be used at any time of day, but you may benefit from taking the product immediately after exercise or in the morning. A loading phase is not required. However if you would like to quickly build up levels of creatine your body, you may follow the loading phase:

Load with one serve, four times a day spaced out over the day for the first five days. Follow this with a maintenance phase of 5 grams, twice per day. On workout days, take creatine 30 minutes prior to and 30 minutes after your workout. 

Side Effects and Warnings: Creatine monohydrate is safe to take as a dietary supplement.  

The only documented side effect of creatine supplementation is a slight weight gain. At first, this is due to increased water retention in the muscle, and later to an increase in actual muscle mass – which is generally welcomed, of course, by athletes. 

If you have high blood pressure consult a medical professional to confirm it is safe for you to take creatine monohydrate. 

Nutrition Information

Dose conflict: The supplied directions first recommend 3–5 g daily, then give a post-loading maintenance phase of 5 g twice daily. Confirm the intended maintenance amount before use.
