Hello I would like some advice.My son is 16 years old and wants to go to the gym twice a week is it good to take creatine?
I have no experience with this if it is necessary to take it regularly or only when he does sports.
Thank you very much for your advice
Hello. The recommended daily intake of creatine capsules is 6 capsules, how many grams of creatine does that equate to? Because not everyone needs the same amount of creatine. Thanks for the answer
Hello, thank you for your interest. The recommended daily dose of creatine in capsule form is 6 capsules, which is equivalent to 4650 mg of creatine monohydrate. This dose is suitable for regular daily use. If you have a higher body weight (over 80-90 kg), you can increase the dose slightly, up to 10 g of creatine per day. Have a nice day!
Hello, it seems to me that Creapure creatine dissolves poorly in smaller amounts of water (250ml glass). Is it possible to add it to a jug of water about 1,5l and drink it during the day or is it necessary to drink it all at once? Thank you in advance for the answer.
Hello, creatine monohydrate (including Creapure®) is generally less soluble in water. Even if it does not dissolve completely, it is still bioavailable. You can add it to a pitcher of water (e.g. 1,5 litres) and sip it throughout the day. You don't have to drink the entire daily dose at once - creatine accumulates in the body and doesn't need to be consumed all at once. Keep in mind, however, that creatine is stable in water for several hours, so if you plan to drink the jug gradually throughout the day, it should be stored in a cool place to minimize its possible deterioration. If this method doesn't work for you, you can also try mixing the creatine with another liquid (such as 100% fruit juice) where it will mix better and may be more palatable. Have a nice day.
Hello, can creatine be mixed into, for example, breakfast cereal?
Hi Tony, the product can be stirred into porridge if it is lukewarm and at a temperature of approximately 40°C. Otherwise, we do not recommend this method of consumption. Have a nice day.
Hello, is creatine suitable to take when I don't want to gain muscle but rather want to increase my running performance? I run 4-5 times a week. Thank you Dana
Hi, Dana, while creatine is often associated with increasing muscle mass, it has other benefits that can be useful for endurance athletes like you.
Regular use of creatine can improve performance even in endurance activities such as running. Many runners use creatine to increase explosiveness, speed or improve recovery between intense workouts. In addition, creatine can help delay fatigue.
If your primary focus is on endurance sports (in your case, running), you don't have to worry about gaining unwanted amounts of muscle. When it comes to muscle gain, it's a matter of the right combination of strength training, diet and supplementation.
I wish you all the success in your running! 😳
What does 4/5 spoon mean? "Four-fifths"? "Four or five"?
Hello, that's four fifths, which is 5 g. Have a nice day.
Hello, I want to ask if I take only one tablet a day, whether it will have any effect or not. Thank you.
Hi Petra, thank you for asking. It is important to follow the recommended daily dosage for optimal product performance. Have a nice day.
Hello,
The bottle says to take 4 capsules a day.
The dosage information here on the website says 3 capsules twice a day. So how and how much is the correct amount to take? Thank you
Hi Zdenka, on the bottle of our product you will find the same dosage as on our website :-). If it is different for your purchased item, please send us a photo to podpora@aktin.cz. We would be happy to look at it with you. Have a nice day.
Please, how do I know 4/5 of a scoop? There's no risk
Hi Thomas, 4/5 scoops equals 5g. You can weigh the weight that way, or divide the scoop in half and 1/3. That way you can better determine the 4/5 scoops 😊. Have a nice day.
Take 4 tbl when? I'm a beginner. Thank you
Hi Marti, we recommend to take it always together with a meal, or at least with a protein drink or fruit juice. Have a nice day
Good, son 14 years old top athlete.. i want to ask if creatine can hurt him? Or what is wrong with using it at that age? Weight 65 kg he is very strong and athletic he plays football I want to put it on for a month in the summer and winter always over preparation prim on dosage at his weight. He takes besides protein magnesium vitamin d+K2 he has a varied healthy diet. He trains 2 a day through preparation we will go 2 heavy training one football. Please recommend which creatine? Whether the vilgain or reflex both have excellent reviews.
Hello, studies do not provide any evidence that taking creatine at recommended doses poses a health risk to people under 18 years of age. Creatine supplementation may therefore be an acceptable nutritional strategy for younger athletes who participate in supervised competitive training, consume a balanced and performance-enhancing diet, are informed about the appropriate use of creatine and do not exceed recommended doses. We recommend Vilgain Creatine Creapure for use in either pure bulk or capsule form. Have a nice day.
