Item Description
Creatine is a non-essential nutrient produced in the body from the amino acids Arginine, Glycine, and Methionine. It is synthesized in the liver and kidneys, where 95% is transported to skeletal muscles and stored as energy. Creatine is also found in small quantities in dietary sources like red meat.
During intense exercise, Creatine converts Adenosine Diphosphate (ADP) into Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP), the fast fuel used for activities like sprinting, weightlifting, and wrestling that require quick bursts of immediate energy. Creatine Monohydrate works by saturating muscles with a high-energy compound called Creatine Phosphate (PCr).
