Vitakruid Creatine Monohydrate micronized to 200 mesh
Creatine in food
Creatine is a substance naturally occurring in our bodies. We can obtain some of it from food, but our body can also produce it from the amino acids arginine, glycine, and methionine. The amounts found in food are relatively low. For comparison: 1 scoop of Creatine Monohydrate contains 3 grams of creatine. To get this amount, you would need to eat 300 grams of herring or 700 grams of beef every day.
Food item Grams per kilo
Herring 6.5-10

Beef 4.5
Cod 3
Salmon 4.5
Tuna 4

Mechanism of action of creatine
During high-intensity exercises, our body uses ATP as an energy source. However, the ATP supply in our cells is limited and needs to be replenished quickly. Creatine phosphate plays a crucial role in the rapid regeneration of ATP.
Our own body produces creatine phosphate, although research shows that we can increase the creatine phosphate stores in muscles by an average of 20% with creatine supplementation. This increased store provides more muscle strength during physical exertion.
Extremely fine & pure powder (100% pure)
Research shows that creatine monohydrate is the best form of creatine. In this form, each creatine molecule is bound to a water molecule, making this form more stable. Additionally, this form is highly soluble and can be easily absorbed by the body.
Micronized to 200 mesh
Our creatine powder is extremely fine and pure; it is micronized to a particle size of 200 mesh. This means the powder is made so fine that it can pass through a special sieve, known as a "200 mesh" sieve. This term indicates that the sieve has 200 openings per square inch. Besides ensuring the powder is truly fine, this also ensures it has a consistent particle size. This results in a concentrated product that is easier to mix.
Neutral taste & highly soluble
Because Creatine Monohydrate is a fine powder, it has a neutral taste and dissolves easily. This makes it easy to mix with water, fruit juice, or other beverages. This is convenient because taking Creatine Monohydrate in combination with sugar- and/or protein-containing drinks can improve absorption.
Better absorption with proteins and sugars
Research suggests that creatine is absorbed more efficiently when taken with sugars. This is likely due to insulin, a substance your body produces when you eat sugars and proteins. Insulin allows our cells to absorb sugars from our blood, but it also appears to improve creatine absorption.
However, a fairly large amount of sugar was needed to improve absorption. Therefore, one study investigated whether sugar could be partially replaced by proteins. They found that creatine retention in the body also increased when part of the sugar was replaced by proteins.
We therefore recommend taking creatine in combination with proteins and/or sugars. For example, take creatine with a piece of fruit and/or a protein powder product.
