The most studied compound, from the most famous patent

Creatine is the most scientifically studied compound in sports nutrition due to its proven efficacy and long-term safety. Since its discovery as a dietary supplement, it has been the subject of thousands of studies examining its impact on athletes. Its mechanism of action, involving the body’s phosphagen system, is well understood and supported by sports physiology, providing logical and scientific backing to its proven effectiveness.

Creatine has been scientifically studied for decades and has had such an impact that it has been tested in many types of people with different contexts and needs, reinforcing its scientific support.

Creapure^® is the most internationally recognised creatine patent due to its high purity and quality, having established itself as the standard in the dietary supplement industry. Manufactured in Germany by AlzChem, Creapure^® undergoes rigorous production processes and quality tests to ensure it is free from impurities and contaminants, such as creatinine, dicyandiamide (DCD), and dihydrotriazine (DHT). This attention to detail and commitment to purity has earned the trust of athletes worldwide, making it a highly sought-after patent in the market.

At HSN, we recognise the value of quality, and in our catalogue, you can find different types of creatine, as it is the most scientifically supported compound. This includes the high-quality Creapure^® patent, which we have chosen to use in our products for almost a decade, even when the patent wasn’t as well-known but already delivered its signature quality.

Creapure®: Internationally recognised quality

Creatine monohydrate is the best form of creatine

Creatine monohydrate is the best and most scientifically studied form of creatine due to its molecular simplicity, effectiveness, and stability. This form of creatine consists of a creatine molecule bound to a water molecule, making it highly bioavailable and easy for the body to absorb. Its simple structure requires no modifications to be effective, making it a reliable option for those looking to optimise their creatine levels efficiently. Additionally, its chemical stability allows it to be stored with less risk of degradation than other less-studied forms, making it practical for regular consumption.

Creatine monohydrate has been the subject of extensive scientific research over decades, building a solid database on its safety, efficacy, and mechanisms of action. This form of creatine has been evaluated in numerous studies covering various populations, including people of different ages, genders, and levels of physical activity. This broad research has allowed scientists to better understand how it works in the body and its potential benefits in terms of performance, solidifying its position as the gold standard for creatine supplementation, over other forms like the well-known ethyl-ester.

Free from DCD, DHT, and creatinine degradation

One of the main features that define the quality of the Creapure^® patent is its strict purity control, ensuring it is free from impurities such as dicyandiamide (DCD), dihydrotriazine (DHT), and creatinine degradation. These compounds can appear as by-products during creatine synthesis if the production processes are not properly controlled.

The presence of DCD and DHT, in particular, may indicate poor chemical synthesis or lack of control over the final product quality. By ensuring the absence of these impurities, Creapure^® positions itself as one of the purest and safest creatine forms available on the market.

Another key aspect of Creapure^®‘s quality is its chemical stability, which prevents creatine degradation into creatinine, a by-product that can form when creatine is not of high purity or not stored properly. Creatinine is a substance that does not have the same desired effects as creatine, and its presence in a supplement can indicate lower product effectiveness. Creapure^® minimises this degradation through its optimised manufacturing process, ensuring that the final product maintains its integrity throughout its shelf life. This reinforces Creapure^®‘s reputation as the highest purity creatine, widely recognised and respected in the sports supplement industry.

Of course, at HSN, you will also find a non-Creapure^® Creatine Monohydrate option, with the same quality controls and guarantees of being free from contaminants and degradation. This doesn’t mean we don’t value Creapure^®‘s rigorous control, quality, and transparency, which make it stand out as a reference material; that’s why we work with Creapure^® and appreciate it as a quality raw material.

Q&A – HSN helps you choose!

How big are Creatine Excell capsules?

The Creatine Excell capsules are 000, with dimensions of 26.10mm x 9.91mm in length x diameter.

Given their high concentration, their size is optimised, making them a convenient and practical option for daily supplementation.

How many capsules should I take daily?

3. Three capsules provide an effective dose, supported by scientific evidence justifying the compound’s effectiveness, and this dose is not dependent on your gender, body weight, or muscle mass.

Better in capsules or powder, which should I choose?

People who travel a lot and take creatine outside of home prefer capsules because they are more convenient. However, those who combine it with other products and prepare their own mixes tend to prefer powder as it is more versatile.

The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3g of creatine.

This statement is aimed at adults over 55 years old who regularly perform resistance training. The beneficial effect is obtained with a daily intake of 3g of creatine in combination with resistance training, which allows for an increase in workload over time and should be performed at least three times per week for several weeks, at an intensity of at least 65%-75% of the maximum repetition load.
