Description
NOW Sports Creatine Monohydrate is pure creatine with no additives or preservatives, available as an unflavoured powder or in vegetarian capsules. Creatine is made naturally in the body and stored mainly in skeletal muscle, where it helps regenerate ATP – the energy source for short, intense efforts such as sprints or heavy lifts.
Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise (beneficial effect with a daily intake of 3 g).
