When is the best time to take Creatine Monohydrate?

Is Applied Nutrition Creatine Monohydrate suitable for vegetarians and vegans?
Yes, Creatine Monohydrate is a synthetic compound and is suitable for vegetarian and vegan diets.
How long does it take to see results?
Creatine works by saturating muscle stores. It typically takes 2-4 weeks of consistent daily intake to notice significant performance benefits.
What does 'Informed Sport certified' mean?
Informed Sport certification means the product has been rigorously tested by an independent third-party laboratory to ensure it is free from banned substances and provides the ingredients listed on the label.
Can I take this with other supplements?
Yes, Applied Nutrition Creatine Monohydrate is unflavoured and easily mixes with most other supplements like protein powders, BCAA's, and pre-workouts.
Troubleshooting
Creatine not dissolving completely
Ensure adequate liquid is used (250ml per serving) and stir vigorously. Using warm water can sometimes aid dissolution. Allow a few minutes for it to fully disperse.
Experiencing mild stomach discomfort
Try taking the creatine with a meal or splitting the dose throughout the day. Ensure you are drinking sufficient water.
Product appears clumpy
This can happen due to humidity. Ensure the lid is sealed tightly and store in a cool, dry place. Clumping does not necessarily affect product efficacy.
No noticeable performance improvement
Ensure consistent daily intake (3g-5g) for at least 2-4 weeks, as creatine works by saturation. Also, check that your training and nutrition align with your performance goals.
