WHAT IS CREATINE?
Creatine is a naturally occurring nitrogenous organic acid that is vital for providing energy to muscles and all cells by rapidly recycling the cellular fuel, adenosine triphosphate (ATP).
While the human body can synthesize about half of its daily creatine needs, the rest must come from dietary sources and/or supplementation.
HOW CREATINE WORKS
When cells burn through their energy source, the ATP becomes ADP. Then, if there is an ample Creatine supply, it causes a loose phosphate to be reattached to ADP, rapidly turning it back into ATP for use again as cellular fuel.
This helps your cells function optimally with more energy. Think of creatine as a turbocharger for your cells, giving them more power when needed!
THE CON-CRĒT DIFFERENCE
CON-CRĒT® is a highly soluble creatine with superior bioavailability; and it is 7X more concentrated than creatine monohydrate, thereby making it easier for your body to absorb and delivering more creatine to your cells.
CON-CRĒT® avoids common side effects like bloating, cramping, and water retention. Scientific studies have shown it achieves at least 70% greater uptake into your bloodstream compared to regular creatine (monohydrate), making it a more effective and potent choice for improving your body’s energy, your workouts, and your overall health.

ABSOLUTE ORAL BIOAVAILABILITY OF CREATINE MONOHYDRATE IN RATS: DEBUNKIND A MYTH
ABSOLUTE ORAL BIOAVAILABILITY OF CREATINE MONOHYDRATE IN RATS: DEBUNKIND A MYTH
This study investigated the pharmacokinetic profile of creatine monohydrate (CM), finding that its oral bioavailability is influenced by the dose, with low dose CM having an oral bioavailability of 53% and high dose CM only 16%, suggesting potential for improved dosage formulations of creatine.
