CREATINE MONOHYDRATE Creavitalis®

Micronized creatine Creavitalis® is designed for complete solubility and advanced absorption, which enables faster transition into the bloodstream, higher efficiency and targeted energy supply to the muscles. Creatine is one of the most researched and proven supplements in the world - extremely useful for both men and women.

Creatine increases physical performance during short, consecutive and very intense physical efforts. Daily creatine intake may improve the effect of resistance training on muscle strength in adults over 55 years of age. The beneficial effect is achieved with a daily intake of 3 g of creatine.

Elixiré Creatine Monohydrate Creavitalis® is a dietary supplement with 100% ultra-pure, micronized creatine monohydrate of European quality. The raw material Creavitalis® guarantees superior purity (more than 99.9%), excellent solubility and the complete absence of additives, fillers or sugar. Creatine monohydrate contributes to an increase in physical performance during repeated short-term, high-intensity efforts

Micronized creatine means that creatine has been mechanically processed into extremely small particles (micron size).

This has two practical advantages:

[[t187]better solubility in water or other drink,
• easier mixing without lumps.
[[t304]

Important: micronization does not change the performance of creatine - it is the same creatine monohydrate, only in a finer, more user-friendly form.

Creavitalis® is a high-quality, proven European-made creatine monohydrate that offers:

• more than 99.9% purity,
• micronized structure for better solubility,
• gluten-free, sugar-free, lactose-free, vegan,
• 100% free artificial additives and fillers,
• full traceability and production in Germany.
  It is a pure, advanced form of creatine for everyone who wants reliable and proven support during high-intensity efforts

Creatine can be taken at any time of the day.
It is especially important to consume it regularly, as creatine accumulates in the muscles.
It is most often taken:

• after training, or[[t186]
• with a meal containing carbohydrates and/or proteins.[[t254]

No. The product is:

• without sugar,
• without artificial flavors,
[[t111]without dyes,
• without filler,
• gluten-free,
• vegan.
  
  You only get pure creatine monohydrate in each scoop.

Pregnant and nursing mothers are recommended to consult a doctor or health professional before using nutritional supplements.

No. Creatine is not intended for children.

Creatine can be taken continuously, without the need for breaks or cycles.
Regular daily consumption is key.

The product isneutral and tasteless, which allows easy mixing with water or any drink, without changing the taste.

Creatine plays an important role in the energy metabolism of every cell. Like a battery, creatine supplies, recycles and regulates energy in the form of creatine phosphate, making it immediately available when needed. When our body needs energy, ATP (adenosine triphosphate) is converted to ADP (adenosine diphosphate). In order for ADP to be recycled back into ATP, energy from food is used. However, it takes some time before the body can access this energy supply from food. Furthermore, cells can only store very little energy in the form of ATP. Creatine phosphate fills this gap until other energy supply processes kick in. The enzyme creatine kinase transfers the phosphate group from creatine phosphate to ADP, which again forms ATP.

Creatine is found in significant amounts only in foods of animal origin. Plants do not contain creatine. Herring, for example, contains a comparably high creatine content of 6 to 10 grams per kilogram, followed closely by cod (5 g/kg), salmon (4 g/kg) and tuna (4 to 6.5 g/kg). One kilogram of pork contains 5 grams of creatine, while beef contains 4.5 grams of creatine per kilogram. The creatine content in cow's milk is quite low, less than 0.1 grams per kilogram.

We recommend taking 3 to 5 grams of creatine per day. The most common and best researched form of creatine is the purest form of creatine monohydrate (Creavitalis®). It can be mixed in a glass of water or mixed into drinks.

The modern diet, which tries to reduce or completely exclude the consumption of meat and other animal products, makes it difficult to get enough creatine from food. Therefore, creatine supplementation may be particularly beneficial for people with a low meat diet or those on a meat-free diet. Creavitalis® is produced without any raw materials of animal origin and is therefore the only source of creatine that is also suitable for vegans and vegetarians.

People 55 and older should be especially careful about their creatine intake. By this age, natural muscle loss has often already progressed noticeably. It is believed that from the age of 35, on average, about one percent of muscle mass is lost per year, and from the age of 60, about three percent. To slow down this process, it is recommended to exercise regularly and stay active to preserve as much muscle as possible. Supplementing with creatine can support this process. The preservation of muscle strength is even confirmed by an official EFSA health claim (officially confirmed effectiveness). However, creatine can only be effective in combination with exercise.

If the body has increased energy needs - for example in stressful situations, with a lack of sleep or during increased physical activity - an additional intake of creatine can be beneficial. This can provide sufficient energy for these processes due to increased creatine phosphate stores in the body. In recent years, many studies have been conducted on creatine that go beyond the sports context. Promising research is currently underway in the following areas:

• Fatigue/exhaustion
• Women's health and male fertility
• Muscle preservation in old age (sarcopenia)
• Cardiovascular health
• Brain function and cognitive performance
• Recovery/rehabilitation
