Creatine Monohydrate is a naturally occurring compound found in the human body and obtained in the diet primarily from meat and fish. Creatine is a popular supplement among active individuals because of its ability to serve as an energy reservoir, especially during intense physical exertion. During short, intense bursts of activity, the body breaks down adenosine triphosphate (ATP) into adenosine diphosphate (ADP) and phosphate for energy. Creatine helps the body convert ADP back to ATP, providing greater amounts of ATP for energy, which may increase short-term endurance and strength. Creatine can also be stored for later use by cells, creating the "energy reservoir" active individuals desire. NOW Creatine Monohydrate is 100% pure and contains no additives or preservatives.

I've tried numerous creatine products, including CellMass and No-Xplode by BSN, and have to say this is far superior. I had no changes in terms of size, recovery rate, or strength with the BSN products but only one and a half weeks after starting taking ON's creatine I've noticed a growth of my muscles.
Neither the creatine nor the protein have had any side-effects so far, more than satisfied. Highly recommended. Whatever creatine you get, get the micronized one because the non-micronized one seems to cause stomach problems for some people.
