Creatine monohydrate helps people to work out longer and faster while at the same time recover more quickly than before. A lot of research has been done on the effectiveness of creatine and almost all of them reveal real improvements in strength and endurance, as well as recovery time when taken by athletes as supplements. The scientific studies have always verified that there is real advantage in athlete’s performance when creatine is used.

The studies most applied have been double blind studies, placebo controlled, where during the study neither the researchers nor the participants know whether they are receiving the creatine monohydrate or a placebo substance which is known to have no effect.

Creatine also speeds up fat loss, and builds lean muscles. It causes increase in the size of muscles, through increasing the amount of water in muscle cells. Finally it is a naturally occurring substance found in many foods, hence safe to use.
