The Creapure Miracle Review
It’s been about a month since I first discovered Creapure as micronized (and Vegan!) “Creatine” and I am amazed at the strength, and endurance I have achieved over such a short period of time. My Creapure analysis is all anecdotal, and unscientific, but 10g of Creapure a day has made a 100% positive difference in gaining strength, and getting more power, in my Kettlebell workouts. The results appear to be a miracle!
Creatine Monohydrate helps in ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate) recycling for quicker, and more powerful, muscle response, muscle growth, and quicker recovery during exercise.
Today, I’ll share a quick review of three micronized Creatine powders I’ve been using. I take 5g 30 minutes before my workout and another 5g after my workout. On rest days, I only take 5g. Over the last month, I’ve lost 5 pounds of fat, and gained 10 pounds of muscle, and the only change was adding Creapure to my routine, and then being able to increase my base Kettlebell weight from 20kg to 24kg. All these Vegan creatine replacements are expensive, so we’ll focus more on taste, and ease-of-use, than quantifying individual improvement associated with any one brand.
Transparent Labs, Grade A
There’s no doubt Transparent Labs have created a real winner in the easy intake of Creapure. Their containers actually include the Creapure logo, and their product tastes delicious. You can buy their “Creatine HMB” in Blue Raspberry, Black Cherry or Tropical Punch. I purchased all three flavors, and they are all quite satisfying. Each serving includes 5g Creapure, 2g HMB (Hydroxymethylbutyrate) and 5mg of BioPerine (a sort of black pepper). 30 minutes after drinking, I’m full of energy, and ready to lift some iron! Plus, there is no granular aftertaste, and I can just mix this with water and go — it’s a simple, and effective, recipe for excellence in training. Product sent to me expires 12/2022.
Optimum Nutrition, Grade B+
I bought a massive 2kg jug of Optimum Nutrition’s “Micronized Creatine” and this powder is as simple as it gets. 5g of “Creatine Monohydrate” and that’s that! There is no flavor, so that makes it easy to mix with a protein drink, or even food, but you really wouldn’t want to just drink it with water only, if you had a choice. There is a slight chalky taste at the end of the last gulp, but nothing terrible in disguise. Product sent to me expires 02/2023.
Klean Athlete, Grade D
Klean Athlete is a curious company. Their “Klean Creatine” is a gritty, unflavored, powder that includes 5g of Creapure in each serving. Creatine product sent to me expires 12/2022. However, since Klean was my first exposure to Creapure, I also added their BCCA + PEAK supplement to my order, and I was dismayed to see the BCCA product expired 08/2021 — just a few months from now — and I thought that unfortunate because that meant I’d have to use this product every single day before the supply I ordered expired. Most products you order online have at least a year before expiration when they arrive in your hand. If I had purchased the Klean product on Amazon, and not directly from Klean, my order would have been refunded due to the quick expiration date. When I asked Klean Athlete about the differential in expiry dates, I was locked out of my online account, and a few days later I received an email explaining that the expiration dates were within their shipping policy. I found the experience dealing with Klean to be cold, and unsecured, and it didn’t help matters that both of their products left me with indigestion, and burping, while exercising.
If you want to gain strength, and get a better, and more robust, workout bang for your Creapure dollar, consider trying out a couple of servings of Creapure on your exercise days for a good while, and see if you get the same biological lift that I was able to create just by drinking a few fluid ounces of Micronized Creatine powder mixed with water.
