Product Information

Creatine Ethyl Ester (CEE) has the addition of an ethyl group which again lends itself to better absorption. This will depend entirely on how often you take the supplements and if you’re following a strict creatine cycle. However, even without the stimulus of resistance training, there is some evidence that creatine supplementation can still be beneficial.

While the physiological and performance outcomes of anabolic steroids and creatine can be similar, their mechanisms of action and legal categorization are not. In summary, while there is some evidence to suggest that creatine supplementation increases water retention, primarily attributed to increases in intracellular volume, over the short term, there are several other studies suggesting it does not alter total body water (intra or extracellular) relative to muscle mass over longer periods of time. If you are taking any prescribed medication, are pregnant or breastfeeding, or have any medical conditions, always consult a healthcare professional before taking this product.

Creatine increases physical performance in successive bursts of short term, high intensity exercise by assisting the production of ATP in the muscles. However, if an athlete or exercising individual is planning to ingest creatine over an extended period of time (> 30 days), or if avoiding potential weight gain which can sometimes occur during creatine ‘loading’, the creatine ‘maintenance’ strategy would be a viable option.

Creatine Supplementation and Skeletal Muscle Metabolism for Building Muscle Mass- Review of the Potential Mechanisms of Action. Then, once you’ve reached healthy levels of creatine in your muscles, you can apply the same logic to your maintenance creatine intake by adding 1-2g of creatine to the recommended 3-5g of creatine every day8 (making it 4-7g a day). Despite the known efficacy, safety, and low cost of creatine monohydrate; a number of different forms of creatine have been marketed as more effective with fewer anecdotally reported adverse effects [ 187].

Studies report that the increase of Creatine levels will help delay the onset of fatigue, increase energy metabolism in the muscle cells and enhance the body's overall training capability.
